Hi, I’m Susie! Southern California wedding photographer. Full-time girly-girl, lover of love + all things PINK!
I’m the type of gal who sings at the top of her lungs like nobody is listening (I apologize in advance if this happens when you’re around) and I absolutely love music (Lana Del Rey, Borns + Blink 182 are some of my faves.) let me know what your favorite musicians are!
I love cheesy shows on the CW #noshame, Disneyland, and bows, dresses and the color pink are my jam! If I weren’t a human, I’d love to be one of those things - is that a strange thing to say? Most of my closet is pink, most of my accessories are bows and you’ll almost always find me in a dress. While I am the epitome of a girly girl, I also enjoy the freshness of being in the mountains, campfires and snowboarding with my hubby.
My love of photography began in elementary school - I was always the “gal with the camera.” I always had a disposable camera ready and in middle school, upgraded to a small Kodak. My calling for photography as a career began when my husband and I visited The California Museum of Photography. It was that day, in an instant that I realized it was time to turn my long-time hobby and passion into my future.
I love photography because it always presents a new & exciting day, allows me to meet new people & hear their story, and be outside, three things I am absolutely passionate about. I’d describe my photography style as candid, happy and bright. At weddings and events, I tend to flow with the day, anticipate what will happen next and capture that. These usually end up being my favorite photos!
A few other fun facts about me:
-
I use a lot of exclamation marks, but I’m not yelling I promise. I just get really excited!!
-
I graduated with a BA in public relations.
-
I’ve always been an avid reader, I used to stay up past my bedtime with a flashlight just so I could finish a book.
-
I’ve taken dance since I was 2 and still take tap dance!
-
I love cooking fun, new meals and making lists. One of my favorites is making a list for groceries.
-
Still can’t get an idea of who I am? Think Jess from New Girl!
If you’re ready for a session with me that will be lots of fun, full of laughs, and a little silly, let’s schedule a time to chat and get you some photos that will make you feel SUNSHINE!
