All of your

Emotions

Hi, I’m Sonja

A Brooklyn-based Photographer and Art Director.

I’m an observer, dessert-lover, polyglot, literature enthusiast, wanderer and stationery fanatic. Thank you for being here.

crafting your story

I’m drawn to moments of intimacy — the subtle gestures, expressions, and interactions that often go unnoticed. You won’t hear me asking you to smile or say 'cheese,' but I believe in the power of creative storytelling to craft unique and meaningful images.

For me, this means finding a balance between authenticity and artistic direction. There will be moments when I’ll ask you to stand a certain way or try something unexpected if it helps create an intersting image. I’m always tasteful but also bold enough to experiment — guiding you thoughtfully while allowing space for natural moments to unfold.

the life of others

Collaboration with my subjects is important to me; I love guiding them in choosing their wardrobe, location, and mood, ensuring we create unique work. Embracing all ideas without judgment, I thrive on exploring new concepts that inspire creativity and enrich the storytelling of each session.

Here are some ways I capture the life of others but I’m happy to tailor a session to your needs.

Family Photo Session

During this photo session, I will be photographing you and your family at home or another location we agree on. My goal is to take photos that are unique and representative of your family. These photoshoots are always very exciting because you can’t plan everything in advance. You can’t predict the mood of a kid or what they’ll do during the session. This unpredictability is what makes this experience so thrilling.

Maternity Photo Session

Let’s document this chapter of your life with a maternity photo session tailored to you. Whether outdoors with a beautiful backdrop or in the comfort of your home, we’ll create images that reflect your personal style and preferences.

Individual Photo Session

In this photoshoot, we will collaborate to establish a specific mood. The session can take place either at your residence or an outdoor location of your choice. The aim is to produce artistic and distinctive images that reflect your unique personality, a certain vibe or state of mind.
