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

I was *this* close to just writing a simple ‘happy birthday’ wish to this mama’s Facebook wall, and then I thought, hey! Why not make a happy birthday blog post instead? Yeah, so much cooler 😉

Sooo with that being said, happy birthday to an incredibly hip, centered, beautiful and loving mama who booked this session to capture her little immediate family of three, her parents and her brother and his fiancee.

I hope today was an amazing day filled with lots of love for you Amanda, and thanks again to you and your whole family for filling an otherwise gloomy morning with lots of joy and sunshine! XO

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.
