I’m Sofia Vargas — Total Enneagram 3, textbook overachiever, recovering people pleaser.
My work lives somewhere between the honesty of documentary and fashion campaign precision.
It’s emotional, but composed.
Stylish, but never over done. (sometimes)
The kind of imagery that feels as good in an online gallery as it does in a frame.
I shoot on both digital and film because texture matters. Light matters. Atmosphere matters.
But with all of that, I still know the quiet in-between moments are what matter most.
I want my couples to feel something, rather than follow something on their wedding day. I am here to document energy. The excitement with your friends. The quiet inhale before the aisle walk. The chaos after the champagne hits. The way your dress moves when no one’s watching.
Based in Wilmington, traveling wherever your story unfolds, I work with couples who care about feelings, design, atmosphere, and meaning. The ones who understand that a wedding isn’t just an event — it’s a real life experience and an emotional archive.
Originally from New Jersey, I moved to NC to attend the University of North Carolina Wilmington and studied Communication and Integrated Marketing. I have a love for all things design, journalism and branding. During college, I spent 3 years photographing full time for a local boutique which later led me to assisting shooting at weddings. 2020, I fell in love with weddings and knew I wanted to help capture the creativity and the chaos.
Fast forward, its 2026 and I am still living in Wilmington with my boyfriend Jake and our dalmatian Shelby, along with our two orange cats Chester and Nala. We love traveling (I've traveled to over 13 countries and have 27 states checked off). Jake's dad sailed and my grandfather owned sailboats, so now we spend days sailing and boating on the ocean and ICW. We love a good board game and mixing up craft cocktails at home. Film photography is a part of our adventures daily and we're always dreaming up new business ideas.

Trips to Mallorca, red nails, vintage one piece swimsuits + a good pair of sunnies
Days spent together on the boat, cruising the ICW
Forever cherish visiting home and sifting through generations of memories
Dressing up and funky fashion staples are my best friend
