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

Aside from being probably one of the prettiest babies we’ve ever worked with, sweet Hollis’ name is also among my top favorites (next to Harper Adelaide.. hmm, I’m thinking I see a daughter with an “H” name in my future..? ;)).

A little past the usual 6-10 day time frame for a newborn photography session at just a few weeks old, Hollis reminded me why I love working with babies of all ages as I couldn’t get enough of her big alert eyes. You’ll see what I mean when you check out some of my favorites below from our time together 🙂

And while complete sleep deprivation from working overtime these past few weeks has me a little less mouthy than usual, my posts wouldn’t be complete without thanking Hollis and her mom & dad immensely  for being so much fun to spend time with and for allowing us the honor of capturing your new lives together!  Until next time.. 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.
