Hi! I’m Lia Sims, an East Bay photographer specializing in thoughtful, creative, natural-light portrait, lifestyle, and small gathering photos. I create images that are artistic, predominantly candid, cinematic, and emotionally real. I’ve been doodling with a camera for 18 years and have spent the last 7 years using it professionally. Photography is also in my roots! It was passed down to me through my father. I spent many days in his photo studio as a child, thanks dad! My official training started in my junior year of high school in a 35mm film class. We even developed and printed our own work! I continued to grow my skills by moving ont

I have been a photographer for 5 years. I started with photos for friends, then I began taking pictures for family and have been developing my skills with retouching.

I was awarded Best of the Bay newborn and family photographer three consecutive years in a row. I may be in my 40’s, but having little kids of my own taught me I’m actually just a big kid. I adore kids and I am passionate about capturing children who they are right now, and capturing parents with their little ones.

We are a full-service photography business! Weddings, engagements, maternity, portraits, and graduations are our specialties. Real Estate, video, 3D, and drone photography is the heartbeat of our business. Whatever your photography needs, “we got you!” I am a son, husband, father, and photographer with a love for family, a passion for life, and an appreciation for nature. Although I am not sure what led me into photography, my love of family, my love of nature, or my passion for life, I am absolutely certain that these are the things that inspires me to capture moments in time, turn them into timeless moments, to be enjoyed throughout time....

Cliché'd though it might sound, I love working with my clients. I don't approach a job pretending to know exactly what a client wants. I ask questions, I scout locations, I try to have as clear an understanding of what a client wants before I take a single photo. Also... I travel well beyond the 150 miles as stated below. I have photographed events in Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, Sacramento, Lake Tahoe, and even France, and will gladly travel to cover your event.
