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

“Our death is not an end if we can live on in our children. For they are us, our bodies are only wilted leaves on the tree of life.” – Albert Einstein

Although Jackie & Jim are getting married in just a couple of months (on June 18, 2010 to be exact!), we still wanted to make sure we squeezed an e-session in before the big day.  We started off at Soldier Field in Chicago, since many of their fondest memories involve going to Bears games, and we aimlessly wandered around Museum Campus and Grant Park as the sun set along the beautiful Chicago sky line.  Congratulations Jackie & Jim! Vasili and I can’t wait to come back and be a part of your wedding day! 😮

*as a side note, the city of chicago must have known we were doing our e-session because, although I always thought it was reserved for the month of February, the sears tower is red and there’s a big ole’ heart on one of the buildings in the skyline!

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.
