You simply cannot go wrong when choosing Susan as your photographer! Susan is such a natural and so easy to be around

She made both the engagement photos and wedding photos a breeze! One of the things that impressed me most was her ability to command a large crowd without ruining the fun-energy or vibe. We had a very large wedding party (22) and a very complicated family dynamic but Susan was able to navigate all with ease. We were able to get every shot and combination that we wanted and still enjoy ourselves! Your photographer is someone that is with you for all the important moments of your wedding so it's really important to choose someone that not only takes great photos, but that you're comfortable with. This is definitely Susan! Now, for the photos... oh my god... people are STILL talking about how stunning our wedding photos are. We have yet to print any because we are having such a hard time narrowing it down! They are all so stunning. We can't thank Susan enough for all her hard work. Definitely book Susan - she is a pro!”

Susan was everything we dreamed of in a photographer and more. Her photos are colorful, full of life, and timeless.


On our first phone call, she had already looked up the sunset time for our date and gave me a quick sample timeline right then and there. She was on top of everything from the day we booked until the day she delivered our gallery. If you want a photographer that will listen to your every request, works well with type A brides, will help coordinate your day down to every detail, and be someone you know you can rely on to make the day run smoothly - Susan is your girl!! Our photos are so beautiful and she captured the perfect balance of candids and posed photos. We can't wait to work with Susan again on any future family photos we take!

Susan was everything we dreamed of in a photographer and more. Her photos are colorful, full of life, and timeless. Susan always answered my emails within MINUTES and when shopping for photographers I loved how upfront she was about packages and how she took the lead in helping us figure out how to make our day run. On our first phone call, she had already looked up the sunset time for our date and gave me a quick sample timeline right then and there - she has everything so organized and incredibly put together. She was on top of everything from the day we booked until the day she delivered our gallery. Our engagement shoot was rescheduled 2 times due to COVID and she was so flexible in rescheduling and took such stunning photos. She redid my timeline and shot list a dozen times with me as things were changing in the weeks leading up to the wedding and was so patient. I have a huge family with divorced parents, step families, and half-siblings, so our family portraits were a little lengthy and complicated, and she worked through them seamlessly and we finished 20 minutes AHEAD of schedule, even fitting in some bonus shots that weren’t on our initial shot list. My hair/makeup ran 45 minutes late and my flowers were delivered AN HOUR late, both of which could have completely derailed our photo timeline, but Susan rolled with the punches, kept me calm and made everything work without missing a beat or a single photo. If you want a photographer that will listen to your every request, works well with type A brides, will help coordinate your day down to every detail, and be someone you know you can rely on to make the day run smoothly - Susan is your girl!! Our photos are so beautiful and she captured the perfect balance of candids and posed photos. We are so grateful we found Susan and had the opportunity to work with her. Your photos are the only thing that lasts once your magical wedding day has come and gone, so I personally felt like choosing a photographer was the most important element of our planning process, and Susan proved me right in showing how invaluable she was to us as a couple and our whole team of vendors. We couldn't be happier with our photos or our experience, and I recommend Susan to any couple or family who is looking to capture beautiful memories, and do so alongside someone who is professional, positive, kind, and makes you feel comfortable every step of the way! We can't wait to work with Susan again on any future family photos we take!”

Susan is absolutely incredible, but if you’re here and you’ve seen her portfolios, you already know that. 

She’s simply the best especially if you’re having a beach wedding. Susan worked so hard on my wedding day, when I had no one else to advocate for me to make sure I had what I wanted. After a heartbreaking postponement, all I wanted was a ceremony on the beach. We knew the weather changes so quickly in Avalon, and she helped me make a perfect plan with our coordinator. We checked the radar between our photos, and guess what, after a 10-minute sprinkle between pictures, we got the most beautiful beach ceremony and even better pictures. Susan is so kind, easy to work with, and the best advocate for whatever you need and want that day. I would book her 100x over and will absolutely use her again.

If I could give Susan more than 5 stars, I would! I cannot express enough how important it is to have a great photographer for your wedding day.

We had a great experience with Susan from maternity to newborn to milestones to cake smash and family photos

The package she offers highlights the perfect moments of the first year. She offered us more than what we expected, was so easy to work with, and photos are beautiful. She allowed us to put creative spins on the photo shoots like doing a rib smash instead of a traditional cake smash! She was always on time, had everything planned out ahead of our arrival, and is really good working with little ones! Will certainly be using her again and again!

Susan has been our family photographer for nearly 5 years, capturing some of the most meaningful events in our life.

From pregnancies to newborn photos, cake smashes and holiday pictures, Susan consistently delivers and makes our vision come to life - always better than we even imagined it! Susan is patient and fun to work with, and an expert with young children. She is a true professional. The photos she has taken have become our favorite decor items, and memories we will be able to look back on and cherish forever. I can't say enough good things about Susan - use her for your next family photo session and see for yourself!

I am so happy that we decided to use Susan for our newborn photography shoot! From the beginning, she was friendly and quick at communication, answering my questions and setting up our session.

I was impressed with her cute and homey studio which had an area to change and feed our baby as well! I instantly felt comfortable with Susan handling our newborn. She is calm, patient, and incredibly professional. She certainly has a way with babies! Susan helped pick out headbands, wraps, and props that fit my style best and was even open to incorporating my own wedding veil and fresh flowers into our shoot. The photos came out beautiful and I will cherish them forever. I would highly recommend Susan to anyone looking for a passionate, professional, and talented newborn Photographer!

The Bump to Baby collection was the greatest thing we’ve ever invested in!! 

We got to capture our pregnancy and photos of our angel as soon as we were ready. Susan is so professional, kind, and honestly goes out of her way to make sure you’re happy with everything you imagined for your photo shoot. She is in constant connection with you and is always quick to respond when you have questions. She is truly an artist and now the only person I will go to for all my event photos! We love you Susan!!”
