What is the story behind Suzanne Karp Photography?

My approach to wedding photography is simple: to help you and your guests feel comfortable with the camera! When you hire a photographer, you're not just hiring a price and a package - you're hiring a person who you will actually be spending a considerable amount of time with on your wedding day. My style is comfortable, natural, relaxed, candid and creative. We'll take care of the family photos in a timely fashion so you can actually attend your cocktail hour! Then, the rest of the evening is all about beautiful, candid, artistic images that perfectly tell the story of your celebration.

Our photographer for life

Choosing Suzanne to capture our engagement shoot, welcome party, and wedding day was by far the best decision we made in the entire planning process.

Selecting your photographer is a high-stakes decision. They’ll be there for your most intimate moments in a way no one else will: zipping up your dress or tying your tie, first looks, every tear, and every smile. They need to be someone who will integrate seamlessly, someone who knows when to fade into the background vs give you direction, someone you feel comfortable being emotional in front of, and someone who will add to the happiness of your day. Suzanne was all of this for us and more.

Her warmth, sweetness, and genuine love for her work were palpable from our very first Zoom call. When my husband and I look back at our pictures with our families and friends, we all remark on the warmth we see and still feel towards those pictures, and how so much of that is due to the amazing feeling Suzanne set for our day.

Suzanne had so many great ideas for expressions and poses to capture a range of looks, and she has an amazing ability to guide you through it all without it ever feeling like effort. She made us feel beautiful and handsome just as we are, and her subtle direction elevated every shot without us ever feeling managed.

Beyond the photos themselves, she was a true partner in our planning. When we asked for her advice on the flow of the day, she offered thoughtful timeline recommendations that made everything run more smoothly. She was wonderfully responsive to every email and mood board, and an absolute joy to communicate with from start to finish.

We loved working with Suzanne so much that I texted her the day after our wedding saying that I can’t wait for her to be our future family photographer too. We couldn’t recommend her more!

Amazing experience!

Working with Suzanne was truly a pleasure! She genuinely cares about her work and puts so much thought and attention into capturing beautiful images. She made the entire experience so easy and enjoyable for us, was incredibly accommodating, and went out of her way to make sure we felt comfortable throughout the process. She really took the time to listen to what we were looking for and really captured who we are. Beyond her talent, Suzanne is one of the kindest, sweetest people to work with. She’s extremely thoughtful and truly cares about her clients. We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with her and couldn’t recommend her more highly. She made the entire process such a wonderful experience, and we can’t say enough great things about her!

Suzanne was amazing!

Suzanne is absolutely incredible! From our first meeting with her we immediately felt at ease with her and knew she was the perfect person to capture our wedding. Her level of attentiveness and attention to detail is amazing! She understood the balance of wanting candid shots and helping facilitate some more editorial/staged photos without being too staged. We are forever grateful for our beautiful memories we have to look back at the rest of our lives!

Suzanne is the BEST!

If you have the opportunity to work with Suzanne, do it! She is truly one of a kind and incredibly talented. After our initial phone conversation, I knew she would be the perfect fit for our big day. She is organized, an excellent communicator, and fun to be around. She makes you feel so comfortable and natural behind the camera, she is an expert at her craft. She can turn something so simple, like putting on your shoe, into the most beautiful photo! We loved every second we got to spend with Suzanne and she was part of our family by the end of the night. She is the best!

Suzanne is the absolute BEST!!!

We absolutely loved working with Suzanne, and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer. We were absolutely blown away by the stunning photos she captured on our special day, combined with her warm energy. Suzanne paid meticulous attention to every detail, ensuring my hair/dress/accys were perfectly in place. She was extremely knowledgable and selected the best spots for unforgettable shots, while making us feel comfortable in all of our couples photos. We even received our sneak peek photos by 10am the next morning and all our photos within 1.5 weeks! Huge thanks to Suzanne, you made our 105 degree wedding so enjoyable and stress free- we couldn't be more grateful!! Can't wait to work with her again for future maternity/newborn photos!

the best!!!!

Suzanne was absolutely incredible. She made me feel so comfortable and somehow made my family love taking pictures (which is normally a struggle). Everything went off without a hitch. She took pictures of us that I could have only dreamed of capturing. Her eye for detail and calming presence are unmatched.

We LOVE Suzanne!!

I can't express enough gratitude for the incredible experience we had with Suzanne as our wedding photographer. From the moment we met her, it felt like we had known each other for years. Suzanne's warm personality and genuine care made us feel instantly at ease.

Her communication throughout the process was exceptional, from our initial conversation to the wonderful surprise of receiving text messages with sneak peek photos the morning after our wedding. It was evident that she was invested in capturing every precious moment of our special day. Honestly, I don't know how she did it - she didn't skip a beat!

When we finally received our album, it left us speechless. Each photo was a masterpiece, telling the story of our love in the most beautiful way imaginable. Suzanne's talent truly shone through, and we found ourselves overcome with tears of happiness as we relived every moment. She captured the essence of our relationship, leaving us with images that looked like they belonged in a magazine.

We are beyond thrilled with Suzanne's work and can't wait to have her capture more special moments in our lives. She isn't just a photographer; she's become a cherished friend, and we feel incredibly lucky to have had her by our side on our wedding day. Thank you, Suzanne, for creating timeless memories that we will treasure forever.

Delightful, Encouraging and *on top of it*!

Absolutely wonderful time - Suzanne did an amazing job of making us both comfortable with the discomfort of being the focus of attention and photographed. Suzanne added to the fun of the night, she did an amazing job filling in for some needed coordination, and the photos are wonderful! What an absolute joy - cannot recommend highly enough.
