| Born
in 1970 in Arthabaska (QC), Sonia Jam studied photography in Trois-Rivières.
After her studies, she was quickly recruited by a company in the photography
industry. In 1995 she set about starting her own business, now Montreal-based.
One year later she presented two photo exhibits in the city of Laval.
In 1997 she unearths a new passion upon photographing a pregnant woman
for the first time.
To this day, approximately 2600 pregnant women
have been seen and photographed by her. Two exhibits were held to mark
her 500th and 1000th photos of pregnant women. To landmark her 2000th,
she decided to create a unique worldwide event by reuniting 1100 pregnant
women on the same picture, to celebrate the joy of carrying life within
and bringing children into the world.
Many of her pictures have graced magazine covers
and have also been featured in maternity articles.
Burning with her ongoing passion for babies,
she now plans to travel the world and meet more and more pregnant women.
