Hi! I'm 

suzanne

I SEE YOU. I GET YOU. I’VE GOT YOU. 

I’ll start by telling you this: I have 25 years of experience as a photographer and a degree in Fine Arts/Photography. But, aside from the obligatory résumé points, here’s what you should know:



MEET YOUR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

"Suzanne is an absolute dream. She made us laugh and is somehow also down to earth, so incredibly chill, loving, intuitive, warm, and just naturally knows how to get those beautiful shots."

PERSONALIZED | ELEVATED | CREATIVE

I used to photograph architecture. Buildings and interiors and things that didn’t move or breathe and allowed all the room in the world for do-overs. So when a friend asked me to shoot a wedding as a last-minute favor, I was so sure I couldn’t do it. But the panic in her voice convinced me I had to at least try—and I watched my world change as a result (you know, the whole “happy accident” thing).

I fell in love with wedding photography—the relationships, the energy, the abundance, the revelry—all of it spoke to my strengths and opened up a world I couldn’t get enough of.








  • I can read a room like nobody’s business 
  • I can connect with your endearing grandmother just as easily as I can the fun-loving groomsman
  • I’m a pro at setting the pace and tone of the day. I work in a way that gets you every portrait and candid you want—without you ever having to think about photography for a single second
  • I believe in the power of your individuality—and I believe it’s my job to nurture that individuality and then capture the beauty that comes from it
  • I believe few things are as magical as the light in Wine Country. 
  • I believe you should have a wedding photography experience that feels entirely effortless.

She is an absolute dream

Suzanne is an absolute dream - a wedding photographer who made us laugh and is somehow also down to earth, so incredibly chill, loving, intuitive, warm, and just naturally knows how to get those beautiful shots. 

Feel like you’ve finally found a Wine Country wedding photographer who does it differently.

Feel nurtured. Feel seen.
