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

With pleasure I welcome another Bump Club cutie – meet sweet little 2-month old Lily!  Although Vasili and I normally do our newborn sessions between 5-10 days after birth, when Lily’s mama first contacted us about trying our usual ‘sleepy, dreamy baby session’ I was both excited and nervous because obviously there is a huge difference between a week old newborn and a 2-month old baby.  We’re always up for a challenge so we said of course we would give it a try!  Not only did Lily sleep nice and soundly for us during our time together but being a touch older allowed us to have even more fun with the family portion of it, her personality was really shining through!  I’m convinced that even at 2 months old, Lily LOVED having her photograph taken.   Check out a sneak peek of our time together that day and I’d say the proof is in the puddin’ judging by Lily’s big smiles 🙂

Behind the Camera

Suzzane

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.
