About

Sandy Rochelle is a Las Vegas / Nashville-based photographer.


As a young child and teenager, Sandy lived on the island of Okinawa, which presented Sandy with the opportunity to explore the island with her first camera, a birthday gift from her parents. Their gift and support influenced her to pursue a career in photojournalism.


After graduating with her degree in photojournalism, Sandy worked as a staff photographer at several North Carolina newspapers, which led her to pursue a business specializing in photojournalistic-style weddings.
