Our engagement photos turned out beautifully!! I couldn’t be happier with the turnout. Got all of our photos a month after the shoot, a couple sneak peaks a week after. We had our shoot at Yosemite national park and I greatly appreciated the time Peyton took to meet up with us and drive into the park which takes forever and took us to this beautiful spot which required a little bit of a hike. I’ve never done a professional photo shoot before so I had no ideas for poses and Peyton directed us wonderfully and made us feel comfortable!

Payton and her husband were amazing! They were so lovely on my wedding day, as I’m running around like a crazy bride they were super friendly and patient and that allowed me to relax and be in the moment for those posed shots. They captured very special moments for my special day that looking back on being a me back to my wedding day all over again! 10/10 recommend!!!
Payton produces stunning, and high quality work. She is a great communicator and works closely with you to get the style and feel you want on photos. I really appreciated how she professionally navigated our event, getting to the best spots for photos without disrupting guests. Extra bonus points for how well she and her assistant handled our dogs, who can be extremely difficult to photograph. 10/10, highly recommend.
Payton made our first photoshoot together a breeze. We had several questions upfront and we were able to schedule a phone call before hiring. We wanted to go to a unique location and she knew the exact place and best time for lighting. She has a strong vision and made sure we were comfortable and familiar with her camera. Our engagement photos look excellent and we couldn't wait to share them with friends and family. The photos came promptly (wonderfully curated and edited) and with an easy to use digital gallery. We couldn't ask for a better photographer. We are so happy we hired Payton to shoot our wedding as well! Can't wait to work with her again and recommend her strongly to anyone in the greater Sacramento area!
Best photographer I have ever worked with. It was a pleasure working with Payton, she made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and the pictures came out stunning. Payton and her assistant blended in with the event. They took pictures for 6 hours at our wedding and her prices are reasonable and affordable. I highly highly recommend Sahleen Studios!
Payton made scheduling our maternity photos simple and stress free. Her eye for photography is impressive and we are absolutely in love with our photos! She was punctual and our pictures were ready within the time frame she mentioned. She edits beautifully and we will cherish these photos for years to come! Thanks Payton!
We booked Payton through Thumbtack to do a family photo shoot in Stinson Beach and the photos came out so nice! She also delivered the photo gallery on time as promised. She was professional and punctual, and I will not hesitate to hire her again. Thank you Payton!
Payton went above and beyond for us! She did the most amazing shots and helped us get more comfortable in front of the camera! We are more of a shy couple, and she made the picture taking process 100% easier! We were running a little behind and she was so flexible and understanding about it. Even with the holiday season, we got our pictures back quickly!
Payton was amazing!! She was very professional and took such beautiful photos at my wedding banquet. She was punctual and very responsive on the days leading up to the wedding. Me and my husband loved how all the photos turned out. The polaroids were also a very nice touch!
We hired Payton for our intimate wedding in South Lake Tahoe and she was BEYOND amazing!!! She was responsive, punctual and most of all a professional photographer with quality work!! She knew what moments to capture and translated it into such beautiful photos! To top it all off, she was so nice and sweet, she even gave some of my family a ride when we had to change locations. I couldn’t be happier I stumbled upon her work. If you choose to work with her, I promise you won’t regret it!! I can’t say this enough but she and her work is amazing!! 😍
Payton was wonderful to work with. She was responsive and communicative throughout the entire process. She met us at our location and really let our personalities come through and snapped away while we had fun! Photos were finished in the timeline promised and they turned out AMAZING! We will definitely hire Payton again!
