Womanhood has been the common thread in my work over the last 15 years. How we can claim and create space, both physically and figuratively. Through natural light and often minimal compositions my images show a delicate balance between vulnerability, trust and strenght. How do we stay connected? In my images you can find the exploration of the continuous transofmative phases of womanhood. Caputuring life through a lens of appreciation for the every day life. Nothing stays after all so we better can make the most of it. Sonja photographs with kindness, awareness, creativity. enthousiasm & curiousity.

I capture stories as they unfold. Sometimes, I create them through conceptual work, with carefully chosen prints available for sale. At home, I cherish life with my husband and three kids. I love getting to know new people or being reunited with them through my work as a photographer. My lens is drawn to authenticity — cause in the end thats where real value can be found, the ones that hold real wealth.

How weird it is to be censoring my own art. Especially when the piece itself is about that our natural state of being is open, light and filled with love -> Playful! Some moments we get to experience the joy of our true nature. For those who’d like to see a bit more at @sonjakoningprints you can find the bigger story of this series where this piece is part of ‘Where She Glows’. For sale from the 5th of June where it will be shown (unsensored) at an exhibition in Amsterdam The Netherlands. #photoart #creativejourney

The Winter Olympics are done, spring is around the corner. And what did we get rewarded for watching: The pressure, emotions, endurance and amazing achievements: what exciting to have seen it all. The Netherlands have never won more during a winter Olympics.
