Sarah Tate, a well-known local photographer, unveils empowering new direction

For years, Sarah Tate’s photography studio on Hailsham Road in Heathfield has been a place of joy, tenderness, and transformation. Known and loved for her newborn portraits — those gentle, heartwarming glimpses into new life — Sarah has captured milestones, memories, and moments that matter for families across Sussex and beyond.

But now, a new chapter begins.

Sarah is turning her lens towards something deeply powerful; Boudoir By Sarah Tate Photography. It’s not just about beautiful photographs.  It’s about body confidence, self-discovery and celebrating the woman you are today.  Sarah’s about to relocate to Hellingly in a dedicated studio space designed specifically for boudoir photography that will be a safe, empowering and intimate space.

It’s more than a photo session

Many of Sarah’s clients come to her during a time of change — whether it’s life after divorce, recovery from illness or surgery, weight loss journeys or simply the desire to reconnect with themselves. What they find is more than a photo session. They find a safe space to be seen, heard and celebrated.

“I’m working on rebuilding my confidence after undergoing a hysterectomy for cervical cancer. I’m also creating a social media presence on TikTok and I’m fortunate to have nearly 40k followers. I’d really like to learn about body empowerment and start feeling like a woman again,”  Gem

“ Sarah made me feel so relaxed and comfortable that I almost forgot I was being photographed in my lingerie.  I loved the experience and would certainly return.  My confidence has been boosted thanks to Sarah and her team,”  commented one customer.

Sarah’s natural empathy, quiet confidence and ability to truly listen makes her the perfect guide on this empowering journey. She creates an experience that is gentle, uplifting and tailored to you — with styling, wardrobe advice, hair and makeup and plenty of time to feel relaxed and fully yourself.

Pre-session planning meeting

Each experience begins with a pre-session meeting, where you’ll plan the style, wardrobe and tone of your experience. Whether you choose subtle elegance, bold sensuality or something uniquely you, Sarah’s focus is always the same, to bring out your most authentic and beautiful self.

The pre-shoot meeting was excellent. All the information we reviewed helped me feel relaxed and well-prepared. The hair, makeup, and the shoot itself were all amazing! I felt comfortable and confident throughout the process. There was nothing negative to say—my entire experience was fantastic, and I felt wonderful,” was how one customer Ms.F described her experience.

The final photographs are available as handcrafted albums or wall art — treasured keepsakes that can remain private or be proudly shared.

Sarah says it best:

“I love seeing how quickly confidence grows. It’s about choosing your style and revealing just as much as feels right for you — it’s always your call.”

Exciting move to new ‘Boudoir’ Studio

Sarah is working out of her Hailsham Road Studio until the end of August and she is preparing  to move into a new dedicated and intimate boudoir studio in Hellingly, not far from Heathfield.  Sarah is also embracing a change in lifestyle. After surviving a heart attack last year, she’s changing the way she works and  she’s passionate about raising awareness of women’s heart health, especially post-menopause when risks increase significantly due to the drop in hormones.
