Sophie Kietzman
Hi, I’m Sophie and I’m a photographer. I moved to NYC from my hometown, Berlin, about 2.5 years ago to chase my dreams and my creative vision. Along that path I found myself, came out as queer, established my voice and low-key found my dream to photograph as many people of the LGBTQIA+ community as possible. I graduated university with a loaded tool belt of conceptual skills but my bigger WHY I do what I do is something that fell into place all on it’s own. I want to show people the beauty I see in them and share what I see with the world. Photo by Eliot Oppenheimer, BK 2020
