Sara Essex Bradley has been photographing interiors and architecture for over 20 years. Her artist’s eye and problem solving skills have been an asset to a wide range of interior designers and architects. While she is serious about creating beautiful photography, her on-set vibe is collaborative and fun. 

Her career has evolved to include hospitality and retail, most recently a resort in Napa and boutique hotels in Louisiana and Missisippi. She includes Warby Parker and Rivian among her retail clients.

Sara has been the sole photographer on three design coffee table books, the most recent being Bohemian Soul: The Vanishing Interiors of New Orleans, published by Rizzoli Books, 2024.

A new book featuring artists homes of the Mississippi Gulf Coast is due to be published next year. 

She is based in New Orleans, but spends summers in Los Angeles, shooting for a growing list of clients with West Coast based projects.
