Candid and natural family photography Jervis Bay by Love, Sophie Photography

Photographs that feel like a movie.

 

 

When everything else fades, photographs are what we have left. When we lose someone, when time passes, when our memories are blurred- the first thing our hearts ache for is to revisit that familiar feeling of a smile or a moment in time.

Meet the Photographer

I'm so glad you're here

I’m Sophie,

a Mum, wifey, and photographer based on the stunning South Coast of NSW.


I'm a sleep-deprived over thinker, a strong empath, a little bit chaotic, and intrinsically creative.


I’m in the full swing of motherhood, embracing all the chaos, love, and magic that comes with it. I’m completely in love with my very handsome husband, and I'm all too aware of how fast our beautiful life that we've created is passing before our eyes. If I could, I'd bottle it up- the smell of my babies, the sound of their sweet giggles, the warmth between our kisses- and I'd keep it just as it is, forever.


I'm here because I want to pause time for you, too. I want to create photographs that take your breath away. Images that bring you back to a feeling. Galleries that will be pieces of your story, proof of love, evidence of belonging, and reminders of just how beautiful life can be.

I can’t even begin to put into words how much more these are than just INCREDIBLE photos! Since [our baby] was born my camera roll looks like [my husband] is a single dad and my heart is so full that I now have these beautiful memories forever with my gals and with my whole family. You are exceptional and I am so lucky I met you 💛

You are creating SUCH important moments for people that will be kept, loved and looked at for lifetimes 💛💛💛💛

I cannot thank you enough for yesterday! You were above and beyond in every single way. You not only did your job to utter perfection, but you were so supportive and helpful throughout the whole day. I feel so lucky to have had you be a part of such an important moment in our journey. Any bride who gets to work with you is incredibly lucky! I have only seen some tiny snippets of what’s to come and I am already head over heels in love with it! You have definitely found your calling. You are fabulous! I cannot wait until cherub is born so I can work with you again ❤️

Both our shoots, wedding and newborn, exceeded any expectations we had. You were beyond helpful and professional during them and quite frankly, our wedding probably wouldn’t have run as well as it did without you!

All the photos we received were incredible, and you were able to capture those little moments in time that we will be forever thankful for 🤍

Thank you soooo much for capturing these special moments with my mini, Soph. I love them more than words can say 💛💛

I want to freeze the little everyday things for you. Your baby’s laugh spilling across the floor, the way your lover's hand finds yours without thinking, the way your parent's arms feel like the safest place on Earth.


One day, these small moments will be the giants we long for.
