From start to finish we knew Susan was the right choice for us! The day we sat in her studio, so cozy and aesthetically pleasing, she asked us questions that let us know she would be just what we wanted. She inquired about our families and the little details of our wedding, being sure to jot everything down. Then she kept in contact with us for the whole year leading up to the wedding, really getting to know all of things that were important to us for our day. We also hired Susan for our rehearsal dinner, which allowed us to do a walk through of the ceremony/reception and helped Susan and our families get to know each other. This connection clearly transcends in our photographs! Each picture is made even more special because of the way the emotions of the day were captured. We all felt comfortable and confident in Susan... and rightfully so!
Susan was as warm as the August day we got married and it was truly a pleasure to work with her! Our pictures are BEAUTIFUL! The details, the lighting, the smiles... thank you Susan!

Susan is AMAZING.. enough said!!! But of course I will say a bit more to explain why every bride NEEDS to have her as their photographer. From my first contact with Susan I knew she and I were really going to get along well. We had a 2 hour conference call (since I live 500 miles away and couldn't meet with her in person). She asked me all about myself and my husband.. where we each grew up, our likes/dislikes, how we met, what we like to do together, why we chose our venue.. anything and everything you can imagine to get to know us and what we like. I hung up afterwards more excited than ever for the wedding :) We arranged a meeting for 1 month before the wedding and she met me at my parent's house where I'd be getting ready the day of. She is the nicest person, has a very calming presence, and is FULL of great ideas!! We talked through how everything would go the day of, she told me all about the props she could bring, and offered a bunch of options for picture locations. The best part of our meeting though, was her assurance that, one way or another, I'd end up with the pictures I want.. even if it meant getting together on another day, to take more pictures if the weather didn't cooperate (my biggest fear). The day of the wedding Susan and her assistant were even more fantastic. I'm a bit (very) high strung and yet I was very calm because she was there and pretty much ran the show. She has so much experience and is so professional, she really knows what she is doing. She took a TON of great pictures, and kept everyone moving before and after the service. She had the names of everyone in the bridal party memorized and organized every picture on my "shot list" (she helps you make that about 3 weeks before the wedding). At the reception, it seemed like she and her assistant were everywhere and nowhere all at once.. she got pictures of everything, even funny stuff I had missed, and was never pushy or in the way. She even handled my "intense" mother with grace!

If I could give Susan 100 stars I absolutely would!! When it comes to an artistic and professional approach to photography, Susan really stands out from the rest as an elite professional in her field....and not to mention, she is also the absolute COOLEST!
