Sarah Crail
Photography at its finest.
I joined the Indianapolis Professional Photographers Guild and Professional Photographers of America to pursue my photography education. In 2016 I earned my professional certification (CPP). By God's grace, I hope to earn my Master Photographer degree in 2021.
IT ALL STARTED IN 4-H
My love for photography began when my dad took me to my 4H meetings as a kid. We both enjoyed learning together. As I grew older, my folks encouraged me to pursue a "marketable" degree in college. I studied education and Christian counseling. Then I went off to teach at a Christian school overseas for the next 10 years. When Roger and I got married, I was able to quit teaching and revisit my first love of photography.
Giving Back
One of my core values is giving back. Generosity has been a family trait of both the Crail and Motter side of my family, and I believe that some of the most fulfilling things we can do is to be generous with others. For that reason, I give a portion of the earnings on every job to charity or Christian missions in my client's honor each time I book a job.
In gratitude for those who have mentored me along the way, I enjoy giving back by teaching photography workshops and serving in the Indianapolis PPA association where I currently serve as president.


Sarah Crail entered the Indiana State Fair open photography competition and made top 10 in the professional division! She earned 1st place in both wedding and pet photography and honorable mention in portrait.
Sarah's pet portrait includes 2 white dog models on a green backdrop. Her honorable mention portrait was a young woman model photographed in a Frank Lloyd Wright house (The Samara House) in Lafayette, and her first-place wedding was a purple silhouette portrait of a bride and groom from a recent wedding in Indianapolis.
Make sure to stop by the Indiana Arts building and see over 750 photos on exhibit!
