REAL TESTIMONIALS FROM PAST CLIENTS
"I TRULY CAN'T THINK OF ANYONE BETTER THAN SOFIYA."
"I looked at many photographers
before coming across Sofiya, and once I came across her work,
I just knew she was the one."
-LORRAINE
"nothing less than a ten out of ten FOR EVERY SESSION."
"For the past 14 years, Sofiya has been photographing all the memories in our lives. The photos are just something that are out of this world."
-SHERRIANNE
"She has a knack for blending luxury with her heart."
After your images are professionally retouched and your composite artwork is carefully perfected, you will attend a guided reveal appointment via Zoom. We will help you select your favorite portraits and design heirloom pieces that preserve these fleeting first days for your family to cherish for generations.
THE REVEAL
Your session is calm, unhurried, and completely baby-led. Every pose is done with expert care, gentle hands, and constant attention to safety. Our more whimsical portraits are created using composite editing. At no point is baby placed in an unsafe position. Your little one remains secure and comfortable throughout the entire experience.
THE SESSION
Your newborn experience begins with a complimentary consultation where we discuss your vision, preferred colors, and ideal timing for baby’s first two to three weeks. We will also walk you through our safety approach so you feel completely confident and prepared. Your baby’s comfort and wellbeing are always our highest priority.
THE CONSULTATION
THE EXPERIENCE
"I spent a month researching the best photographer. The work she does is incomparable. She is patient and passionate, and you can see that in the 6-hour-long photoshoot we had. The pictures she produced were stellar."
-NAJVA
"Sofiya KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT SHE IS DOING!"
"There’s a reason we went back when baby #2 arrived. She’s THAT good! I wasn’t feeling 100% after either baby was born, but you’d never know from our photos. Sofiya always takes care of her mamas, and you will end up with beautiful images."
-ASHA
"SOFIYA HAS PHOTOGRAPHED BOTH OF OUR BABIES."
"Sofiya is incredible; she is so soothing to any baby she meets. When we saw our photos, we fell in love. So much so, we went again for photos of our second baby. Sofiya is well worth the price tag. I look at the photos of our boys every day."
-NADRIA
"TO BE HONEST, I DIDN't KNOW NEWBORN PHOTOS WERE IMPORTANT."

"Sofiya is an unbelievably talented photographer. We have done all 3 of our kids’ newborn photos as well as my maternity photos. She’s done our family shoots each year and I’ve hired her 3 times for brand shoots for my company. I don’t usually leave reviews for anyone but for the amazing work she’s done for us, I felt inclined to. The quality of the photos and her work speaks for itself really. Highly recommend!"
-EVIE
"Over the last 13 years we have done numerous maternity, newborn, 1st birthday sessions and family photography as well as branding / headshots for my real estate business. This week we were vacationing in Florida and have done beautiful sunset beach photos in Palm Beach Island.The experience has been amazing! Looking forward to receiving our beautiful wall art pieces! Thank you Sofiya!"

She is extremely professional, kind, and creative. I feel she has a special talent with babies, as they immediately feel calm and happy in her presence."

Frequently Asked Questions
Our boutique studio is located in Boca Raton, Florida, and we proudly serve clients throughout Delray Beach, Parkland, West Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale, and surrounding South Florida communities.
Planning early ensures availability on our schedule and allows us to photograph each milestone at the perfect time.
Newborn sessions are best held during the first 8–14 days, when your baby is naturally sleepy, easily and safely posed, and you both are ready to venture out for a calm, guided experience in the studio. We reserve your spot based on your due date, but we know babies don’t always follow the plan. We will work with you to find a day that aligns with their actual arrival date.
Maternity sessions are ideally scheduled between 24–32 weeks, when your bump is beautifully defined, early pregnancy symptoms have passed, and you are still comfortable moving into flattering, supported poses.
