A FEW HOURS TO
ENJOY BEING A FAMILY
The Experience
"Wow, we're a really good team."
You know that feeling, as a parent? When your kid eats all their food. Or they get a good night sleep. That feeling when you go out for the day and they have a big accident but you brought the wipes and an extra pair of clothes. When you go on a family vacation and your kids are playing together on the beach and they're all getting along. There is something about those moments as a parent that can be really profound... like... we did a good job. We're a good team. I did a good job. I'm a good parent! That feeling is my favorite thing to give families - whether you're in my newsletter or following me on my instagram or you're walking away from photos with me.
AND When you walk away
I'll likely text you the night before your session, "It doesn't matter what you wear or how clean your house is, the only thing I need from you is to be willing to have fun with me. And laugh off the chaos. If you can do that, I can make magic out of anything."
Below are the offerings designed for families who want it all - a fun, meaningful experience now and incredible artwork of their life to have forever.
"I can’t say enough good things about working with [Suzy]. If you’re considering it - just do it! You will be glad you did."
We have spent the last nine years since with her capturing everything from the perfect family portrait, to what we have grown to love most about her… capturing those tiny little everyday moments and expressions of our family that truly feel like US. Suzy has a way of seeing the beauty in the simplest parts of life and helping you recognize the beauty in that too. After all, when we look back - it’s those images of real moments & interactions of every day life that will mean the most. We love the way she sees life, light & family - and even better - that she captures it so beautifully on film (our fave).

NOTE FROM JEN: (this is a hidden canvas)
If you have a large amount of content for each of your services and are having trouble with it stacking and being sticky, simply click each service canvas, then set the "sticky" settings to "none" instead of top on scroll. You may add or delete as many services as you need to — just make sure you change the "stacking order" to be one higher each time so they layer!

The DOCUMENTARY COMMISSION
A full-day experience, woven from all the moments that don't fit into a timeline. With this collection, I come into your home as a gentle observer, staying from the moment your family wakes up to the moment the last light goes out. This is not about posing for an entire day. This is about giving more space to move slowly. This experience allows for naps, errands, snacks, playtime, meltdowns, cuddles, meals, laughter, and whatever else the day brings (or we dream up). This is about capturing the pace of your family's real life together.
Must book a call for approval first with Suzy.

We often go out all out for a wedding, but what about the birth of a child? The moment they take their first breath, or settle as you kiss them on the cheek, or the moment you hold them in your arms, or they latch onto you for the very first time, or the moment your other children meet their new brother or sister. Let me capture all those incredible firsts while you get to enjoy just being present in them.
My birth story services include options to have me with you for pregnancy, your baby's actual arrival, 48 hours after-birth, and newborn sessions at home (I recommend holding your newborn session within the first 3 months after baby's birth date).
Additional Offerings:
SUPER 8 VIDEO
Super 8 video captures what still photos can’t - the movement, laughter, and connection between every frame.
FINE-ART CONCIERGE
Transform your favorite photographs into timeless fine-art pieces, designed and framed with care.
COMMERCIAL & BRAND CONSULTING
Helping brands tell human stories that make people feel something.
CORE
VALUES
Make it feel like you.
The best photos don't look perfect, they feel honest. Let me help you see the beauty in your own story.
Let the kids lead
Children have an instinct for presence. I love to follow their lead most often because they always bring us back to what's real. The best part of family photos is savoring the opportunity to let go of being the disciplinarian and just enjoy being with your children. However they show up that day.
Connection over control
Sure you can clean your house for photos and buy cute outfits. But I don't need those things to make incredible art. The only thing I need from you is your willingness to be yourself and have fun with your family.
Joy is the point
Family photos with me isn't a checklist, it's an experience. Let yourself have fun with me and enjoy this!
