Sophia, Professional Photographer

I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area where the beauty of my surroundings led me to photography back in high school. Fast forward 15 years, and although I now reside in the Central Valley I continually visit the Bay Area and drive all around the state capturing the people and places that make my heart sing.

I always let my clients take the lead - whether there's a specific location where they like to shoot, or even down to the music they'd like to listen to during our session. And in the areas where they would like direction, that's where I step in.

My favorite places to take photos are in downtown areas of a town. There's so much variety of architecture, colors, parks, and attractions that make those areas feel like a playground. Specifically in San Francisco, I really enjoy photographing around Union Square and Chinatown. There's just so many colors, so many different styles to play with, and you can't beat those gorgeous views of the city and bay from atop those hills!
