Hi there, Dream Gala guests!

First off, thank you so much for being part of such an impactful evening. It is truly an honor for me to be there, capturing all the moments — the laughter, the emotion, the energy, and of course, your beautiful faces.

I’m Savannah, the photographer behind SavvyPhotage. I started this business with one goal: to use photography as a way to connect with people. For me, it’s never just about aesthetically pleasing pictures or perfectly posed shots — it’s about the people in front of me, and the story they’re living.

My sweet nephew, and I :)

My favorite part of photography is the challenge — not just technically, but relationally. Figuring out how to make someone feel seen, understood, and confident in just a few moments of meeting them... that’s what I live for.

Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to photograph everything from events and branding sessions to weddings, newborns, and all things family. In just the past two years, I’ve photographed my first birth (after 16 hours, I genuinely forgot what day it was), covered Spring Training games with the Minnesota Twins, and served as a game day photographer for the Minnesota Vikings during the 2024 football season. I’ve also had the chance to work backstage with Tim Tebow, capturing VIP moments at an event called LifeSurge.

Each of these experiences has reminded me how much I love variety — and how much I’m drawn to the challenge of stepping outside the “typical” photography path. Every shoot is different, and that’s what keeps it meaningful and exciting.

What I do

  • Event photography (galas, corporate events, fundraisers, and more)

  • Headshots and team photos

  • Branding and content creation for businesses and personal brands

  • Speaking engagements and behind-the-scenes coverage

  • Weddings, maternity, newborns, and family sessions

 

If you're in healthcare, business, philanthropy — or just someone who wants to document something important — I’d love to work with you. Whether it’s helping tell your story, showcase you and your brand, or capture your family just as they are, I’m here for it.

I hope you enjoy/ed the gala and that the photos bring back some of the heart and connectedness.

If you’d like to get in touch to work together, or if you have questions about the gallery, you can:

  • Use the contact form on my website — I always see the submissions, and they never land in spam.

  • Or just send me a message directly at spierson@savvyphotage.com

Thanks again for being part of something so meaningful.

Hope to connect with you all soon!

Savannah
