About sonya kim

Honolulu raised / Bay Area based Real Estate Photographer

My passion for photography began when I was working as scuba diving instructor in the 'Aloha” state. I began with underwater photography; taking photos of honeymooners and tourists at gorgeous beaches and local landmarks. While attending the university of Hawaii, my interest in various types of photography continued to blossom and I decided to take a sports photojournalism class. From that point on, I realized I had a true talent for photography, I knew wholeheartedly, I wanted to make it my career. After obtaining my degree, I became a real estate agent and then became a mother, leaving my home in Hawaii to move to my new home in the Bay Area.

My previous experiences led me to a career in real estate photography, which I have been doing for 5 years now. My sharp eye for detail, color, natural light and composure, allows me to produce stunning photos for all genres of real estate photography. In order to satisfy the requests of my clientele, I make it a point to build a close relationship with them. By achieving this connection on a personal level, I am able to truly find out what types of photos they are looking for. That, in turn, allows me to make suggestions which leads to a stunning finished product.
