Hi, I'm sofia mcmaster

photographer

It’s so great to have you here. I am a Los Angeles based photographer with a specialty in natural light and creative portraiture.  


While I was born and raised in a small suburb north of Sacramento, my acceptance into UCLA brought me seven hours down to the wonderful Los Angeles. The late nights in Venice with friends, the wonderful food scene, rugby photos on the weekend, and Sunday morning walks through Santa Monica have grown on me. Not to mention, the photographic opportunities that I have and will continue to encounter are what make LA such a special place; the air is truly filled with creativity and inspiration.

My approach

 

From natural light portraiture to in-studio creative shoots, to couples photography and events, my experience as a photographer these past 8 years has allowed me to grow a wide and experienced portfolio. While I haven’t pinned down a niche for myself quite yet, all of my work centers around the same thing: my passion for people and capturing their essence. Every story is different. Each laugh is unique. And every embrace has its own warmth. It is my privilege to capture the breadth of human emotion through my work and I would absolutely love to meet and capture you, it’s my passion.

 

Kind words from

HALEY WELTMER

"My expectations were more than met, they were exceeded. Prior to my shoot, I looked on her Instagram and through her portfolio to get a sense of her photography and editing skills. From that moment, I knew I wouldn’t be disappointed in her. She even came prepared with a Pinterest board full of pose ideas and shots personalized for my shoot. She was constantly showing me sneak peeks on her camera that really boosted my confidence for the rest of the shoot and made everything way less stressful."
