Hospitality Art Programs

Art that makes a property feel like nowhere else.

Guests remember how a place made them feel. Sarah works with hotels, resorts, developers and designers to build art programs around a sense of place: Sonoran sunsets for a Scottsdale resort, glacier blue for a modern lobby, wildlife for a safari lodge or a private club.

She helps select the images, plan scale and placement for each space, and delivers either print-ready files for your fabricator or finished museum-quality artwork, produced as large as 60 × 90 inches.

    Chapter I

    The Image

    It starts with a photograph that stops you. Choose from the portfolio, or describe what you need and Sarah will pull options from her private archive, including work that has never been released.

  2. Heaven & EarthGrand Canyon National Park, ArizonaThe Grand Canyon from Lipan Point on the South Rim.
    Chapter II

    The Use

    Tell Sarah where the image will live: the campaign, the publication, the lobby. How large, for how long, in which territory, and whether it should be yours alone. A few sentences is plenty.

  3. TogetherBotswanaA family moving as one across the Botswana savanna at sunset.
    Chapter III

Questions

Licensing, answered.

How much does it cost to license one of these photographs?

Every license is quoted per project. The fee depends on how the image will be used, where it will appear, for how long, at what scale and whether you need exclusivity. Send a short description of your project and Sarah will reply with a written quote, usually within one to two business days.

What is the difference between commercial and editorial licensing?

Commercial licensing covers uses that promote a product, service or brand, such as advertising, packaging, websites and social campaigns. Editorial licensing covers uses that inform or tell a story, such as magazine articles, books and documentaries. Commercial uses are typically priced higher because the image is working to sell something.

Can we license images for a hotel, office or healthcare art program?

Yes. Sarah licenses work for hospitality, private aviation, corporate, healthcare and residential projects, from a single statement piece to a full property. She can supply print-ready master files to your fabricator, or deliver finished museum-quality artwork produced by her studio, sized and framed for each space. See art programs.

Can we get exclusive rights to an image?

Exclusivity is available by category, territory or term, and some images can be bought out entirely. Exclusive rights are quoted individually. Images in the Collector's Reserve are offered with campaign exclusivity only.

Why are some images not available as wall art?

Sarah's Collector's Reserve images are sold to collectors in tiny editions of 15 or 24, with a written promise that they will never be reproduced as wall art in another form. Licensing honors that promise: those images are available for editorial and campaign use only. For interiors, choose from her Limited Edition work, her private archive or a commission.

Are these photographs AI-generated or composited?

No image is AI-generated. Every photograph is captured in-camera by Sarah at a real place and moment. Like the master landscape photographers before her, she finishes her work with careful adjustments to exposure, contrast and color, and on occasion blends elements from her own photographs of the same scene. If your use requires strictly unaltered documentary images, say so and Sarah will advise which frames qualify.

What files do you deliver?

High-resolution, color-managed master files sized and prepared for your use, delivered with your written license. For interiors, Sarah can also deliver finished artwork, produced as museum-quality acrylic and shipped fully insured.

Can I use an image I found on this website or on social media?

Not without a written license. Every photograph on this site is protected by copyright, and using any image to train AI or machine-learning models is never permitted. If you would like to use an image, start an inquiry and Sarah will make it easy.

Do you work with interior designers and art consultants?

Yes. Designers, art consultants and procurement teams work with Sarah directly on selection, scale, placement and installation, and receive project pricing.
