As a Portland web designer and photographer for small business, and a small business owner myself, I’ve learned that change is something you have to be ready for. It’s not something I’ve always felt comfortable with, but part of the challenge of running your own business is accepting that it’s a journey, and that it’s […]

Sarah G Creative is hitting the road: for June 10th-15th, I’ll be road tripping to LA and San Francisco, and taking photos along the way. I’ll be in LA on the 10th/11th, and San Fran on the 13th/14th, and a lot of my time there will be for play, so please be patient while I’m […]
After getting to know Sprout, a Portland-based health coaching business, for more than a year, I was excited to hear from Skylor–Sprout’s owner, and one of my favorite yogis on the planet!–about re-designing her web site!
