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

If you follow our blog, you may remember a certain chubby, bald and insanely adorable newborn boy that we photographed not long ago.. I first met this little guy’s parents back in summer and then met up a second time with them for a maternity session to capture life pre-baby’s arrival.  It was during that period when we were having an intense heat wave and while I was nervous to bring an expecting mom out in that kind of weather, I knew that ultimately we would make it work, even if it meant hanging out at home.  So when I showed up I suggested we stay at the house and hang out.. which lead to taking their silly, fun-loving pups out for a walk… which lead to heading down by the lake.  Needless to say we had a lot of fun and mama remained comfortable and glowingly beautiful the entire session, so I think it’s safe to say that we beat the heat 😉  Thank you so much to this family for allowing me to share in such an amazing journey as I watched their family literally grow before me this last 6 months from belly to birth to baby.  And if you haven’t already, do yourself a favor and check out their life after baby’s arrival by clicking HERE.

Behind the Camera

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.
