Who We Are

Rob and Sophie are two photographers living in Victoria BC. We own and operate a Photography Studio called SophiePhoto.

We are always taking pictures. In fact you could say we are driven to it. Our business is growing yet we still find time to get out and about in Victoria to capture images on our own time! Contact us at 250.661.2558 or email at sophie@sophiephoto.com

Out and About In The Lovely City Of Victoria.

We here at SophiePhoto love our home in the amazing city of Victoria British Columbia!

 Fall is a particularly favorite time of year for us. The seasonal colours bathed in the golden light of morning combine in such a way that we find ourselves drawn to photograph it!

For the first set of images it would be true to say that we came across this area to photograph almost by accident! On the drive home one day we happened upon one of the many tree lined streets. We thought to ourselves that we should come back and get some morning shots of the street which was framed with trees that were full of leaves that had just recently turned to their amazing fall colours. As an added bonus there was a Marina which we knew would also have great light in the morning.
As it turned out there is a nice little path down to the water and we both became quite enamored with what we saw and put the street shots on hold!



The scene was tranquil and to me it was like looking at a painting. A perfect start to the day.


With all the work we have had of late it can be a little hard to "find" the time to shoot for the pure joy of taking pictures.


Believe me it is worth the effort. Here is a shot of Sophie putting together a composition.


It is great for the two of us to shoot the same scene. There is a determinable difference in the way we compose and I am always intrigued by how we can see the same scene for its differences along with its similarities.





We actually did not get many of the street. In fact very few! None the less I am really happy with this one I got of Sophie as she was about to cross the street!


Rob took the boys to a skateboard park the other day.


Gabriel is perhaps not as keen about skateboarding as his brother but have having a pocket full of cars is just as fun!


Balance! So important in life as well as skateboarding!





I met up with my friend Mike the other day. Just before he brought his plane into Victoria I shot this one of a Harbour Air's DHC3 coming to the dock.


And here comes Mike!


Last shot of the post is of a sunrise just down the street from our Studio.
