My wedding photography style embraces natural, authentic moments that tell the story of your wedding day. Having a documentary style means I look to capture those fleeting candid moments between you and your loved ones. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, Sonya photographs weddings throughout California, including the Napa and Sonoma Wine Country region, Lake Tahoe, and Santa Cruz, and destinations.
Contact Sonya if you would like photos to celebrate your engagement, document your family, or have some fresh portraits for your business. Sonya is a true artist. Although she is capable of doing the standard wedding photo shots (bride's family, groom's family, etc.), I wanted to work with a photographer who could capture the life and the spirit of my wedding day.
She has the talent you hope for in a photographer: someone who knows the exact right time, angle, light, exposure. Before she even took my photos, I looked through her portfolio and could see she had this talent. It's a rare photographer who can capture spirit and dimension.

Services
With a photojournalistic style and 15 years of professional photography experience, my passion is capturing authentic moments, finding beautiful light, vibrant colors, and creating images that tell your story.
I work in digital but also love the art of film photography.
My approach to wedding and portrait photography is simple; the day of the wedding is about two people coming together to celebrate their marriage with loved ones, and portraits are about connection and trust.
My goal is to have your photographs remind you of how you felt that day and bring back lots of those small and meaningful moments.

Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, Sonya travels to weddings in the Bay, Wine Country, Lake Tahoe, and your destination wedding.
Capturing and creating photos throughout your wedding day engages different styles of photography that I have learned and developed over the years.
My style is a blend of traditional/classic, photojournalistic, and modern.
To get those stunning portraits, I will often go for a more classic style, but as I photograph candid moments, my style becomes more documentary.
