Born in New York City, Sophia moved to the Blue Ridge Mountains with her family where she spent her childhood exploring and appreciating the beauty of the natural world. Carrying that passion for beauty and exploration into her adult life, she majored in cinema and international studies while earning her bachelor’s degree at VCU. She comes from a family of artists and craftsmen and always carries that with her. Whether it’s working on arts and crafts with her children or working on her own film and photography projects, she loves to create and capture images of the beauty all around us. When she's not snapping pics, she's catching rays out hiking and gardening, or making old-school popcorn for home movie nights with the family.
