Outstanding Photographer

I would rate Sonya 10 stars because she is the most amazing photographer. Sonya certainly has an artistic eye and completely captured the love that my husband and I have for each other better than we ever could have imagined. Her rates are extremely reasonable and she really takes time to get to know her couples. We hired her for both our engagement shoot as well as our wedding and we are so happy with the photos that we have.

Great experience

We absolutely loved working with Sonya as our engagement and wedding photographer. She took gorgeous pictures and was a very friendly, calming presence who made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Given that our wedding was outside in a heat wave, this is no small feat! Highly recommend.

I can't say enough about Sonya. It's obvious in her photos that she has an eye for catching that perfect shot. Her photographs are just stunning. Sonya is also so easy to work with. I highly recommend Sonya for any of your photography needs. This is one vendor you'll never regret hiring.
