Capturing Your Love Story with Elegance and Meaning

"We were planning the wedding from overseas and Sonya gave us so many useful tips. She was also incredibly helpful and patient with us with regards to ALL aspects of our wedding organisation journey."
“Sonya’s photos delight our eyes just as much as the first time we saw them. The emotion that Sonya framed in each image was captured so vividly and deeply that looking at them makes us feel and enjoy the experiences of our wedding all over again.”

Your WEdding Day
The venue, the florals and decor, and even the way your dress skims the ground... It all matters. To you, and to me.
I'm all about the details, so I'll fix your hair, fluff your dress and let you know if a bowtie is askew.
I've mastered the art of skilfully directing you to look and feel like the very best version of you.
On your wedding day, I'll be well prepared to capture the emotions, the details all the little moments in between.
