Our wedding was our dream come true, and choosing Sophie as our photographer was the "icing on the cake". Her ability to beautifully, artfully, and creatively capture everything from the small details to the large moments lets us relive our dream wedding now and in years to come. She has a fresh eye and a romantic style, which happened to fit perfectly with our vision. She is also very flexible, and willing to work with various schedules and ideas. Our wedding was a day-long event, and Sophie and her team worked with us to ensure that they captured all of the moments we wanted. We actually planned our engagement session and entire wedding from the other side of the country, and Sophie was nothing but attentive, prompt, and professional. On the day of the wedding, we felt like celebrities. She is hardworking, brilliant, and will no doubt go far in the field of photography. We were so very lucky to have her as our photographer, and cannot recommend her enough!

I've been holding off on writing a review for Sophie because I wanted to see the photos first. I have. They're amazing. Now I can unequivocally and enthusiastically recommend her . . . and the photos are only part of what made her an amazing photographer.

First of all, she took the time to make sure she knew what we wanted. She offered helpful suggestions when we had no idea what that was. And she was amazing at getting back to us, returning emails and calls within 24 hours---even when she was out of the country! Usually those emails and calls were last minute changes that we wanted to make. No problem at all. She incorporated the changes with ease.

On the day of the wedding, Sophie was attentive, helpful and professional. She had already visited the grounds and mapped out good locations for photos. She helped keep us from seeing one another before the ceremony. And she went above and beyond to be helpful, running messages back to our coordinator when needed and lending a hand where needed. During the ceremony, I didn't even see her, but she somehow managed to get beautiful shots, close up and panoramic. After the ceremony, she moved the photos along quickly because she knew we wanted to spend time with our guests. And during the reception, it felt like she was everywhere at once. Whenever I saw someone I wanted a picture with, Sophie was right there to get the shot.

Sophie is an amazing photographer. Great photos, friendly professionalism and reasonable prices. Hire her!!
