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

We walked around Millennium park, my car got towed, we read books at home, we played, we had hat time…

oh, and mom’s name is Love.

It was the perfect lifestyle family photography session.

above: Indeed it was the perfect session.. well, except for maybe the part where my car got towed half way through the family photography session… and then I realized I had left my wallet in the car, so I had to walk to the tow lot… until a streets & sanitation worker offered to give me a ride and I broke every rule my mom told me about not getting into cars with strangers. It kind of felt like my own little Adventures in Babysitting.. 🙂

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.
