At Laura Sharp Photography, I create images that reflect connection—between people, between moments, and between us and the animals we love. Based in Rochester, NY, I specialize in portraits, family sessions, couples and engagement photography, and pet portraits that are relaxed, heartfelt, and true to life.

As a queer photographer and former educator, I approach every session with care, curiosity, and a deep belief that everyone deserves to feel seen. Whether you're celebrating a new chapter, documenting your chosen family, or simply wanting to be remembered as you are right now, I'm here to help you tell that story—with clarity, intention, and warmth.

I work with people of all identities, ages, and backgrounds, and I strive to make each session feel inclusive, affirming, and easy—because photography shouldn’t be intimidating. It should feel like you.

Thanks for stopping by. I invite you to explore the galleries, check out recent work on social media, or reach out if you’d like to start planning something meaningful together.
