Sophie Rachel Amzallag

I was born and raised in Marseille, France, and have been living between Tel Aviv and New York City since 2009. In 2016, I graduated from the Fashion Marketing AAS at the Parsons School of Design. Later, I went on to work in fashion before enrolling in the one-year Photography Conservatory at the New York Film Academy. Whether I am capturing the bond that unites a family, immortalizing one of my models’ spontaneous burst of laughter, or using my sartorial eye to shoot the most stylish strangers I encounter, I always favor candid shots expressing my subjects’ personalities rather than rigid, over-posed photographs. While city streets are my favorite playground, I am versatile and am just as comfortable shooting in a studio environment.
