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

Trust me, this pop-tart is as sweet and darling as she looks.  Thanks for being so good for me today baby Charlotte, welcome to this world!

Also, I wanted to give a much deserved thank you to my friend Laura Templin who has been helping me out with my shoots lately (and vice versa), and particularly thank you for helping me with this one.  And finally, an equally big thanks to Carrie Sandoval & Brittany Woodall for teaching me how to do the hanging shot (see photos #6 & #7) – I am so proud to be able to offer such a unique style of photography to my clients now and I have you both to thank for that!

The Artist

Suzzane
brown

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.
