wedding

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

A few months ago, on a cold night amidst the glow of the city on top of a Whole Foods rooftop, our very good friends got engaged. I shot digital for the sake of capturing the moment, but made Vasili come along so he could man my film cameras (ummm the opportunity to shoot Kodak 3200 film at night time? yes please!).

Looking back through his images, I’d say he did a pretty darn good job.

And most importantly of all, congrats Mike & Molly!! We are SO happy for you guys and cannot wait to FINALLY attend a wedding as a guest this summer 🙂

xoxo

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.
