Hi, I'm Suzy, a photographer, mentor and mom of 3. I'm so glad you're here.

I contemplated making this post on Christmas but then I decided it best to actually let myself take a few days off for the holiday.. and even if but only for a few days, boy was it nice to relax and spend time with family, not worrying about checking emails or keeping up with deadlines.  I think I’ve forgotten what that’s like.. Anyway getting some rest was a gift all on its own and I hope you all were able to do the same.  Despite how much we all sacrifice for our jobs, I’m quite certain at the end of our lives none of us will ever be wishing we had spent more time working and away from our loved ones.

Speaking of loved ones, isn’t this newborn photography session of Maxwell and his loved ones just so lovely?  It makes me wish I was snuggled up in front of a fire and a Christmas tree with Vasili and our furry babies right now..

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday and an early happy new year!

The Artist

Suzzane
brown

For nearly two decades, I’ve worked with individuals and families who understand the value of time. And the importance of preserving it well.

My work centers on creating living archives: carefully composed records of a life as it’s being lived. Not performances. Not surface moments. But the relationships, environments, and details that define a legacy.

I approach each commission with the eye of an artist and the discipline of a documentarian. Listening closely. Observing deeply. Shaping work that is meant to endure. Crafted on film, finished as heirloom objects, and designed to be held in your hands, lived with in the home, and passed down in your private family vault. 

This is not photography for the present moment.

It is art made in service of memory, history, and the generations that follow.
