Wedding Photographer + Super 8 Filmmaker
Capturing elevated, artful stories across the East Coast & destinations worldwide.
Hi, my name is Sonya
I’ve always been drawn to the beauty of memory — the fleeting, unposed moments that linger long after the day has passed. Photography, for me, is a way of honoring those details: the warmth of a glance, the atmosphere of a place, the feeling you’ll want to return to again and again.
Behind the Lens
The Heart Behind My Work
AUTHENTICITY
I believe in noticing the quiet in-between moments as much as the big ones — capturing genuine, unfiltered fragments of your day that reflect your true love story. My approach ensures that every image reveals the real emotions and connections that make your wedding uniquely yours.
creative vision
My work is inspired by fashion and cinema, but always rooted in who you are. Every couple has a story that deserves to be told with intention, and I craft imagery and films that reflect your individuality while carrying an editorial, art-driven perspective.
Heirloom Imagery
I am committed to creating photographs and films that live beyond the wedding day — imagery that evokes nostalgia now and can be cherished for generations to come. My goal is to deliver work that is both beautiful in the present and enduring in its meaning.

"I booked Sonya 2 years before our wedding and she was always a constant in our wedding planning! So many of our wedding planning decisions, we based off what it would look like with her style of photography and it was the best decision we ever made. She was available for any and all questions the whole entire process, took the time to meet with us and discuss what we wanted from our engagement, rehearsal dinner, and wedding day photos and she did more than meet our expectations! We feel so lucky to have had her capture this phase of our life and cannot wait to work with her for our future chapters as a married couple.🤍"

"Sonya flew to New York especially for us to take our wedding photos. We fell in love with her style on TikTok and Instagram and contacted her. The exchange in advance was very professional and Sonya gave us some very good advice and helped us choose the perfect package. The photo shooting was a lot of fun and Sonyas ideas, tipps and locations made it even more perfect. We absolutely love the results and wowed our friends and family with the photos. The super 8 videos are also amazing and we can only recommend adding this to you shooting! Thank you Sonya! <3"

"Sonya is such a talented photographer! She is experienced in both film and digital and has an eye for detail. We exchanged Pinterest boards in advance of my wedding to ensure we were getting the types of photos I desired. She recommended accessories to enhance the photos and detail shots that I wouldn’t have considered myself. I highly recommend booking Sonya — whether it’s a mini shoot or a full wedding… she will deliver & you will be so happy with the final product!"

"We found our family photographer in Sonya! Her soft demeanor, skills, and organization makes working with her a breeze. She is incredibly skilled in capturing the emotion behind a photo so organically. Sonya is insanely talented in film and super8, she has the perfect eye for making photos feel vintage yet modern. We have worked with her a few times now and plan to for years to come. My only regret is I wish I knew about her earlier so she could have shot our wedding."
