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

Yes, silly. Because that’s what all of us women are – just plain silly. Why do we all think we’re not pretty or photogenic enough? I met up with the owner of an awesome new startup here in Chicago called Babies4Babies that provides a bottle of CHX to a baby in need for every luxury swaddle blanket sold of theirs (like Toms shoes but helps saves babies!). She was kind enough to have me over for coffee and fruit, and then I convinced her to let me rummage through her closet, pick out a few outfits and let me photograph her. She apologized way too many times for not being photogenic.. I laughed. And then I laughed again when I got the photos back because all I could think was just how gosh darned silly we all are for thinking that about ourselves.

My name is Suzy and for the last 18 years I've had the absolute honor and privilege of photographing families during their life's greatest moments in Chicago and all around the world (and I have the smile lines to prove it). I absolutely love photography, and I am extremely good at what I do. But my absolute best and most important work is being able to help people connect with their families. So they can see and appreciate of all of things that are so wonderful about their life.
