Throughout the month of November, our Photo of the Day series will be taken over by each of Rangefinder‘s newly minted 30 Rising Stars of Wedding Photography in 2019. The 30 honorees are featured in our November issue, and each of their full, 30-photo submissions, reviewed by the competition judges, can be found in our online gallery. For more behind-the-scenes insights, follow us on Instagram.

Sara Lincoln likes to play with a warmer palette and muted colors. At the same time, the London-based wedding photographer doesn’t like to box herself into one specific style. In that vein, she likes that couples from different cultures hire her.

“I love the big gestures celebrated at weddings,” she says, “the confetti madness and the dance floor shenanigans, but I am also super sensitive to the small stuff too.” She attributes the music photography she shoots in her spare time to keeping her on her toes both creatively and logistically when “you have to engage ninja mode in order to react to the ever-changing light.”

In the gallery above are her behind-the-scenes insights on three of the photos from her submission this year.
