Sophie Dodd
Studio Manager
Sophie has been working at Seven Springs Studios for over three years now.
Sophie Graduated from Bath Spa University with a Degree in Fine Art, specialising in Photography. After Graduating, Sophie worked as a school portrait photographer for two years, meaning every child, no matter what age, doesn’t leave without a big smile on their face.
Sophie loves dogs and has a natural way with them, big or small they seem to know exactly what she’s asking them to do!
Which is why Pet Photography Sessions are one of her favourite, as well as our Baby Photography Sessions; as Sophie loves the creativity involved, not to mention the cuteness factor plays a large part too!
