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

Taking a break in between work today and I felt totally compelled to share this video with you.  If you’re friends with me on facebook then I apologize as I’ve already blasted your newsfeed with this a gazillion times.. but it’s totally worth sharing over and over.  Hands down, the best proposal. EVER. (and I think the fact that it has over 6 million hits in just 4 days is proof in the pudding!) I’m normally not so into such overtly public displays of affection, but I’ve probably watched this over 10 times now and cry my eyes out every time.

Anyway, don’t take my word for it. Grab some tissues and watch for yourself 🙂

The Artist

Suzzane

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.
