I'm Suzy of Simply by Suzy, and I'm so happy you're here at my blog because I can't wait to serve you with lots of good stuff like a peek into all of my favorite photoshoots for clients, freebies and resources on motherhood, how to get more connected with your life, and how to take beautiful pictures of it.
For me, this ‘engagement session’ was extra special – not only did I get to spend time meeting my good friend’s fiance (or husband, technically!), but we got to spend our afternoon together walking around the campus where we all went to college (yes, all three of us went to Loyola!). Brittany & Luai actually met at Loyola during our undergrad years there and since we were all pre-med at one time (ha can you believe I once planned on being a reconstructive surgeon??) the library held tons of memories for us. In addition to the fact that we’re all such nerds and spent an exorbitant amount of time there, I just love the way that old books smell and the powerful feeling of being surrounded by the works of so many great authors. We also laughed a lot as we walked along the lakefront and memory lane – how Britt & Luai first met in Biochem; our first encounter in Biology 101 lab and how we instantly bonded over M&Ms and DNA; or how the squirrels that roam campus are freakishly comfortable with people. Anyway here are some of my favorites from the session. Seriously it’s not even fair how easy it was to photograph these two! It was the perfect weather and thanks to B’s amazing sense of style, they looked like a walking Banana Republic ad. Thanks B&L for hanging out with me and making me feel like I was in college again, to forget for even a moment that I’m actually an adult now (or am I even..? lol).
Follow along for more about photography, motherhood and life behind the scenes with my own family.

You are so talented… I can’t believe how you capture the feelings EVERY TIME!
It makes me so happy to see The Stacks looking so well lit in these pics. 🙂
