Unprompted laughter during portraits. The look you give each other when no one else is watching.
The people you love laughing together across the room. The deep breath before walking down the aisle.
We go looking for those.

The photographs you'll go back to most are usually the ones nobody planned for.

Florida's West Coast and the Jersey Shore

Our galleries move between editorial portraits and the kind of candid moments that make people stop scrolling.
The florals, the table settings, the shoes kicked off at hour three —
and the people who made the day worth celebrating in the first place.

Wedding Day Experience

We take an editorial approach to each

Our work starts before the wedding day.
We learn the timeline, the people, and the details your planner is most proud of.
By the time we arrive, there's nothing left to figure out. Which means you don't have to think about photography at all.

We step in when direction is needed and disappear when it's not. What's left is the day, unfolding just the way you envisioned it.

from your initial inquiry to the final delivery of your custom heirloom album.

Polished Direction.
Steady Communication.
The Whole Story.

Elevated Experience

- Kelly and Justin

You can really feel the energy and passion she has for her work and that translates into her incredible photos. I got married at an indoor/outdoor venue during a tropical storm and she was able to completely pivot the plan day-of.
It was executed seamlessly.
I felt so comfortable with her and her team throughout the entire process and felt very taken care of on the big day.
When you let Susan do her thing, her talent truly shines.

"from my first conversation with susan i knew she was going to be such a dream to work with"

- Kara and Rob

Susan is a friend, a planner, and a photographer throughout your entire wedding process. Prior to us even booking Susan, she spent a full hour talking to us- learning about us, sharing with us her process, and going through what all the next steps would look like.
Susan takes an incredible personal approach to every couple she works with.

"Susan is the best photographer there is! If you are reading this- book her now!"

- Francesca and Sean

Susan is incredibly talented and very personable which just made the whole process so easy and fun. I knew come the wedding day I wasn't going to have to worry about this part of the day because she is extremely organized with her timeline and makes sure to get everything you want.

"We had such an amazing experience for both our engagement and wedding day."
