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

Years ago I first came across Melissa Diep’s fabulous wedding work while at a local photographer meet up group and have been hooked on her blog ever since.  I’m sure you can imagine my excitement and delight when I got an email from her a few months ago asking if I would capture both her pregnancy and little Giant (who just arrived last week!!).  I had so much fun getting to know her while we shot a mini-maternity session this summer to celebrate her and all of her fabulousness, and am beyond excited to visit her family next week to finally meet the little guy who’s been baking in her belly for the past 9 months.

Anyway, here’s a peek into our time together this summer.  Thank you so much Melissa for not only a great afternoon but for the honor and privilege of capturing this special time in your family’s life 🙂 You are such a beautiful mama already, inside and out. muah! xoxo

Behind the Camera

Suzzane

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.
