Hey, I'm Sarah!

Meet your
#1 HYPE GIRL

Hi, I’m Sarah—the face behind SMP! I’ve spent years creating fun, fashion-forward senior sessions that help every teen feel confident and celebrated. My goal is simple: to make you feel amazing in front of the camera and give you photos you’ll love sharing for years to come.

For over a decade, I’ve been capturing seniors with a mix of fun, fashion, and authenticity. Beyond running my studio, I’ve taught at national photography conferences and have been featured in leading industry publications—so you can trust your senior portraits are in expert hands.

This has never been just a career: it's my passion, my mission, and my life. I am honored to have the privilege of making sure each and every one of my seniors leaves their session feeling celebrated for everything that makes them who they are.

kind words from

OUR MODELS + PARENTS

- REAGAN, CLASS OF 2026

Sarah Modene is the absolute best!! If you are debating on joining the SMP team go for it because it is such a great experience. Overall it is so fun to be apart of the modeling team and 100% recommend! 

Sarah always makes you feel your best and I'm always looking forward to the next photo shoot! 

- Melissa, MOM OF BROOKLYN

My daughter has loved being on the model team and getting the various photo shoots! Plus Sarah offers additional travel opportunities if someone wants to take it to the next level. She is easy to work with, and keeps things fun and encouraging. Sarah promotes authenticity in each girl and realism. I fully understand why so many of my daughter’s friends choose her as well. Best one we have worked with for sure, you won’t be disappointed.

- KELSEY, CLASS OF 2027

i feel like i can be myself when im with sarah and all the other girls! everyone on the team has such an amazing attitude and will always welcome you in with open arms. i’ve built so many friendships from this experience and can’t wait to see what else it holds!

The SMP Model Team has brought me so much confidence over the past year! 

I definitely recommend Sarah as your next photographer!! 

- TEAGAN, CLASS OF 2027

One of the best parts of being apart of Sarah Modene’s model team is the bonds you get to make! Being apart of the team is such a great way to meet new girls in your area. There is no better couple of hours than the ones you spend with Sarah!

It has helped me step out of my comfort zone while having fun the entire time!
