ABOUT SONJA
Photography has always felt like art to me - it’s the way light, feeling, and the unfolding of a moment come together that first drew me in.
I’ve been photographing weddings since 2014, and while I bring years of technical experience, what matters most to me is the feeling - the quiet glances, bursts of laughter, and those in-between moments you’ll want to remember forever.
Before photography, I worked as a lawyer, a career that honed my attention to detail, calm under pressure, and deep respect for trust. But my heart was always in art and storytelling, so I traded the office for the camera, and I’ve never looked back.
Outside of weddings, I’m drawn to the beauty of the natural world - the play of sunlight on water, the textures of the coast, and the details in nature you might otherwise walk past. I’m also a lifelong animal lover and share my days with my rescue dog Ollie who is my entire world.
Whether I’m documenting a wedding or photographing the details in nature, my approach is always the same: quiet observation, genuine connection, and a deep care for the story I’m telling.
You see your wedding as something to be felt, not performed.
A day that unfolds naturally, shaped by the people around you, the atmosphere, and the moments that make it uniquely yours.
You want to be fully present with your guests, soaking in laughter, connection, and all the small gestures that make the day feel entirely yours, while a trusted hand quietly captures it all.
You want your photos to feel personal, true-to-you, and reflective of your day - something you return to again and again, remembering the joy, the intimacy, and the people you love most.
ABOUT YOU
An Artist’s Approach
As a teenager, I fell in love with painting landscapes and seascapes. I spent hours at a wooden easel my dad had made for me, captivated by light, colour, and the way composition and atmosphere could create a sense of beauty.
One of the proudest moments of my teenage years came in my final year of high school, when the school acquired my large-scale painting of the sea for their art collection.
When I discovered wedding photography, I realised it was a way to continue this practice: creating beauty within the environment around me, whether it’s the light on a veil, the natural beauty of our world, or the shapes and patterns in a moment.
As an artist first and foremost, I see each wedding as a unique canvas, where emotions, light, and moments come together to create a living story to be remembered and cherished for a lifetime..
