Well, Hello There!

I’m excited to get to know you

Meet Sarah Keenan, Founder of Elevate 757

A Texas-born, mountains-to-coast transplant, Sarah Keenan is a people-centered creative, seasoned photographer, visual strategist, real estate professional, and digital income mentor based in Virginia Beach, Virginia.

With degrees in Exercise Physiology from the University of Tennessee (Go Vols!), Sarah’s career began in healthcare and education, but her heart was always pulled toward creativity and connection. In 2004, she launched her photography business with nothing but a camera, a deep desire to serve, and an eye for real, beautiful moments.

Over the past 20+ years, she’s photographed thousands of families, weddings, newborns, seniors, business owners, chefs, creatives, and entrepreneurs—each one a reminder of why she believes so strongly in the power of visual storytelling.

Today, Sarah is the founder of Elevate 757, a modern, coastal-inspired studio offering:

Lifestyle Photography – Timeless, connection-focused portraits for families, couples, weddings, seniors, and milestone moments
Branding & Real Estate Photography – Clean, scroll-stopping imagery for agents, entrepreneurs, and anyone marketing their property or brand
Creative Coaching & Digital Income Mentorship – Tools, strategies, and support to help women build their own brand and income stream with authenticity and ease

A proud mama to a bold and busy crew, Sarah leads with faith, purpose, and joy—even when life is beautifully chaotic. She understands the juggle of working motherhood, the courage it takes to chase big dreams, and the magic of building a business that fits your life (not the other way around).

Clients and colleagues alike love her ability to blend warmth with strategy, and heart with hustle. She’s known for saying that “you didn’t wake up today to be mediocre”—and she lives by it. Whether she’s photographing a family on the beach, staging a listing, coaching a new business owner, or capturing an entrepreneur’s brand—Sarah brings intention, insight, and an infectious love for helping others shine.

She believes in fresh flowers, back porch laughter, grace for the mess, and the idea that success doesn’t have to look like burnout.

If you’re ready to show up more beautifully authentic, more boldly, and more fully—Sarah’s your girl.
Let’s do this.
