As an editorial portrait photographer, my mission is to help you celebrate defining moments in your life: motherhood, reconnecting with yourself, shaping your brand.
From beauty and boudoir-inspired portraits to maternity, fine art nudes and brand building images, our sessions will tell your story. You will be the narrator. I will be the editorial and art director. Oh - and your biggest fan.

Your images are ready within 3-4 weeks. We’ll meet via Zoom to review and select your favorites, and to discuss how you want them packaged.

They are meant to be poignant day-to-day reminders of a special moment in time. So every collection includes beautifully edited digital images, and, for most clients, handcrafted albums, fine art prints, or framed artwork that become part of your home and your legacy for future generations.
Your photos aren’t meant to live only on a screen
PORTRAITS FOR A LIFETIME
My focus, when I photograph, is on your expression, the way you move, the way you shift and soften, laugh, or simply exist in a space. Yes, I guide you, but my sessions, honed over 20 years, are designed to be unhurried and joyful.

I would absolutely recommend her to anyone
You need a photographer who can do both — make you feel completely at ease while still being totally on top of her game. Sophie is that. Her energy is absolutely wonderful. She’s playful and warm and makes you feel so good about being in front of the camera. The shoot was so much fun that I remember thinking at one point that I didn’t even care how the photos turned out. But then when I got them, they went beyond what I expected. Just gorgeous. Sophie really captured something in me that glowed, and I’ve used so many of the photographs from our session. She even snapped a quick pic of my daughters and they turned out to be some of my favorite photos!

She has a rare gift for making you feel seen and relaxed
From the start, Sophie creates an atmosphere that is calm, natural and easy. You know you can be yourself. As my personal styling business continues to evolve,
I rely again and again on Sophie's mastery behind the camera. She has a rare gift for making you feel seen and relaxed. I'm so
grateful for the images she's taken that really capture who I am and what I do.

an incredible experience... editorial and artistic
Working with Sophie was an incredible experience. I booked a boudoir session for a milestone birthday and felt completely comfortable from the start.
She truly understood my vision for something more editorial and artistic, creating images that felt elevated and personal. Her guidance made everything feel natural and confidence-boosting.The final photos are stunning, and I’m so grateful to have them. I highly recommend her if you want a boudoir experience that feels thoughtful and truly special.

Working with Sophie is always an absolute dream
I can’t imagine a better experience with a photographer than I had with Sophie. From the start, she was clear, responsive, and easy to work with, making the whole process seamless.
During my author photo shoot, she balanced natural, candid moments with guided poses, helping me feel relaxed and confident. Her energy made the session genuinely enjoyable.
The final images captured exactly what I wanted, and the entire process—from shoot to edits—was smooth and professional. I receive so many compliments on my photos and highly recommend her—it’s absolutely worth it.

Sessions include personal portraits, maternity, and creative brand photography—each designed as a guided, editorial experience.
Personal portraits can range from simple, understated imagery to more intimate, boudoir-inspired or fine art nude sessions. Maternity and motherhood sessions may include quiet, connected moments with your children or a more individual, expressive focus. Brand sessions are designed for creatives and entrepreneurs, creating imagery that feels both personal and aligned with your work.

When it feels aligned, we can also photograph in your home, workspace, or another meaningful location.
