EVERY Detail Was Captured

Had an amazing experience with Sophia. She captured our engagement photos perfectly and was able to last minute accommodate to take pictures the day before the wedding. On the wedding day her and her team were awesome! She hit all the pictures I wanted and even more. She took her time with the main shots and even added some extra ones. I wish I went with her team to be a videographer with how on top of everything they were. I highly recommend Sophia to anyone that wants picture perfect pictures on their day!!! Thanks again for everything!

Sobed creative media was amazing!

I cannot say enough good things about Sophia! She was easily one of the best vendors I had at my wedding. She is amazing at what she does!! Very professional, organized, gives direction very well but also has such a calm demeanor to her that actually helped me stay calm throughout the day. You can tell she knows what she is doing!! She was very easy to work with - even leading up to the wedding. Her communication was awesome - she responded very quickly to all of my emails and answered any questions I had. She had my pictures back to me very quickly and they looked amazing!!! I love them so much! I get a lot of compliments on my pictures from friends and family who say that some of the pictures even look like they could be in a magazine! She captured every part of the day so perfectly - every moment, every candid, every emotion! One of my bridesmaids noticed how great Sophia was on my wedding day and after seeing my pictures she automatically hired her. I will absolutely be using Sophia in the future and highly recommend her and her team to anyone!!
