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

Meet Paul William & Henry Warren, two adorable newborn boys with the most fabulous names.  This is only my third twin newborn session ever and I just absolutely LOVE photographing multiples – to capture that undeniable connection and bond between two little souls is so inspiring to me (that and I love a good challenge! If you have ever tried to photograph two newborns at the same time, you know what I’m talking about).  Thanks Paul & Henry for making it a great morning! It was twice the work, but twice as worth it.

Two faces to wash, and four dirty hands
Two insistent voices, making demands
Twice as much crying, when things go wrong
The four eyes closing, with slumber song
Twice as many garments, blowing on the line
Two cherubs in the wagon, soaking up sunshine
Work I do for twins, naturally comes double
But four arms to hug me, repay all my trouble.

The Artist

Suzzane

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.
