Sofie’s images capture the delicate and natural beauty of a subject. She has an innate ability to find the light, and can guide her subjects to deliver the photograph as she imagined.

Curiosity and creativity drive her. Happiness is what she wants to communicate.

‘I want people to feel cheerful when they look at my images … we are designed to smile’
