Browse your wardrobe, build outfits (manually or with AI), save looks, and plan packing lists for trips. I finally built my version of Cher’s closet (with zero technical knowledge).

I insisted on directing and editing my own wedding film, and one year later, it’s finally done.

Pregnancy is a magical moment in your life when you discover the extent of womanhood, something that connects you to all the generations before you. Depicting the essence of maternity had to be done against the backdrop of the natural landscape.

A documentation of my 4-year-long interior design process, and a lesson in slow decorating.

Clothing is powerful, and I’m serious about my personal style. A look into how I used a scientific approach to determine style principles and personalized outfit formulas.

Simon and I got married at an Italian villa in the beautiful hills of Southern California, and Studio Sophy gets the exclusive inside scoop.

I’m so extra I learned HTML and CSS for my wedding. Another project where I got to learn and build and learn and build — my favorite thing to do.

I am constantly in awe of just how much the human body (and mind) is capable of.

Learning Photoshop, buying a domain name, getting laid off, and other failures that defined my life and turned it for the better.

When I was starting out, tech jobs were so mysterious. Unless you hit up a career fair in college and worked an internship in Big Tech (both of which I missed because my career journey had its fair share of twists and turns), I had zero idea how people did it.

Pushing the limits of a familiar design tool and playing with animation.

As art director of Studio Sophy, I want to ensure I’m always putting out content I’m proud of. I needed a set of well-documented guidelines.

They enrich my perspectives, expose me to diversity and new opinions, and allow me to look at life and the human experience in new fascinating ways.

How I got addicted to a video game and turned it into an architecture project. (What has quarantine done to me?)

In times of distress, we can complain about the unjust nature of the world, or we can see the situation from a place of positivity and gratitude.

Some people organize their closet in-person. I do it remotely, and digitally.

Ultimately it’s the fine art work I’m drawn to. It’s portraiture, natural expression, the female form, shapes, earth’s elements, and movement.

This was something that had been brewing in the back of my head for a long time, as a “wow my life would be amazing if I could do that” pipe dream. The thought of actually teaching scared the bejeezus out of me. But life begins at the end of your comfort zone.

The air was cool and breezy, a refreshing break from the historical San Francisco June gloom. With a bag full of leotards and fabrics, we were ready to play.

Summer's coming, and what better way to welcome my favorite season than do a fashion shoot? I got to art direct, produce, and shoot Ashley Chloe's summer campaign.

I was inspired by San Francisco's famous cable cars for this animation. I thought the uphill climb would be the perfect looping route to illustrate this city of hills.

At one point when we were alone in the small dressing room, he reached out his hand and introduced himself. "Hi! I'm...ummmm....Sophia!" I muttered, wide-eyed and in shock.

Shooting at NYFW is an opportunity to test shoot with the industry's top models and celebrities. Join me in recapping the experience of a lifetime at my first fashion week in the most amazing city.

There's something about incorporating motion into photographs that adds just a bit more excitement and interest into a still. I envisioned something simple and classic for one last dance shoot with Andrea.

I love light and movement, shape and textures. For me it's more than showing off clothes. I want the personality and emotions of the model to come through. And the more I experiment, the more I come back to simple and sleek forms, clean lines, and beautiful natural expressions. 

I think this was the first time I've ever embraced shooting in direct sunlight. The sun was my beauty dish. And it was perfect. 

With supportive professors and a humanitarian organization and professional mentors to keep me on my feet, I am proud to present the longest project I've ever worked on, the Dream Soccer Academy.

The natural curves of a human body and the raw texture of skin are three-dimensional elements of a subject reveal light, contour, gesture, perspective.

This image had been brewing in the back of my mind for years and I finally made the effort to gather the furniture and people to actually do it. Yay!

The magnificence of this awe-inspiring location with the timeless beauty of a woman in a flowing gown makes for images I've only ever seen in my dreams.
