About

While photographing with both eyes open, I see every moment, expression, and reaction, capturing it before it is gone with the stealth of a ninja. My years of experience demonstrate that I take stunning photographs of wicked awesome people, and mini wedding emergencies are taken care of quickly. Feel free to check out what others have to say about my work.

Reviews of Suzanne Simmons Photography

Suzanne made my day amazing! She was so helpful and went far beyond her duties as a photographer, she also played a small part as a dress chauffeur, a florist, a personal attendant, honestly she did it all. She was so easy to work with, so friendly, and so easy going. Not to mention the photos are amazing! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to a friend, and will probably use her for life events in the future!

Suzanne Simmons was an amazing vendor to work with while planning our wedding. From start to finish she was very professional and helped provide feed back to make our day the best it could be. The various angles and her personal attention to details provided us with the most amazing photos that we could have hoped for. We would highly recommend Suzanne Simmons to anyone who is looking for a professional photographer for any occasion!

When you are thinking about who to choose for your big day, you should know that wedding photographers do more than just take pictures. With the nature of the day and how quick and hectic it can be, the last thing you want to try to do is remember which pictures are important to you. I could not be happier with the quality of work from Suzanne. Not only did she take absolutely beautiful pictures, she commanded the day with grace and ease. She was laid back and fun when need be, and also assertive when crowd control was needed. Before the wedding, she worked with me to determine the most important pictures to make sure to take, and throughout the day she checked them one by one off her list. She also keeps an arsenal of emergency wedding day supplies – she trimmed loose threads from my bridal party’s dresses, made sure to have band aids for blisters, she knew how to bustle my dress and did it quickly, and when my husband stepped on my dress ripping the back, she sprinted over and fixed it up in no time! In addition to her professionalism the day of, I also contacted her a little over a year in advance, and throughout that year I would have a random question here and then. She always got back to me quickly with an answer, and was very willing to accommodate when needed. I really cannot stress enough how wonderful Suzanne was. One final plus side to Suzanne was the time she was willing to spend on the wedding day. When you dig down, many others offer packages starting at 6 hours or less. I would not recommend this! Some of my absolute favorite pictures span from the first hour to the last, and I was so happy to have her the whole day.

Suzanne was our Wedding Photographer... she was absolutely amazing!! She was fun to be around and there was never any uncomfort at all! She went above and beyond on everything she did for us! Her price was amazing and the pictures I recieved in return were even more amazing! I will suggest her to everyone I know! Couldn't have asked for a better photographer! :)

Our experience with Susie was everything we expected... and more! She knew the perfect balance of being there when you needed her, and stepping back so that you could enjoy those special moments (yet she always seemed to capture those moments, and we hardly noticed she was there!!) Susie was willing to do way more than just photograph- from helping carry in flowergirl dresses, to offering a jewelry wipe for my engagement ring that I didn't have a chance to get cleaned. Her sweet demeanor and fun personality made for a great photography experience and we would reccomend her to anyone that asked! Oh, did I mention her photographs were amazing?!! We could hardly choose which ones to make prints for the wall because they were all so great!

Susie was absolutely amazing. Picking your wedding photographer is challenging for many reasons. Every couple wants to make sure they get lots and lots of great pictures of their special day and usually have to just rely on other people's recommendations. Then you need to consider price and what his/her package is going to include. No matter what, you feel like you are taking a risk. Well chosing Susie was a risk worth taking! We had two great recommendations for her which promted us to meet with her. After our first meeting, I just knew she was the one for us! Her professionalism and service go unmatched and the value for the price is absolutely unbeatable. We had 10 (if not more) solid hours of Susie working her butt off to get every shot she could. One thing I didn't consider ahead of time was how its going to feel having a photographer follow your every move, but it was actually extremely comforting and useful to have her around!! She was well prepared to help myself or a bridesmaid with any detail at a moments notice. She was never intrusive or bothersome - actually quite the opposite. Then after the wedding, the photos were recieved in a time frame that completely met my expectations. I loved the fact that we got a personalized Thumb drive with all the edited photos to keep! Lastly, the photos were all I could have asked for. She captured all the big moments and lots of the little ones too. A few of the photos even took my breath away (oh that tree!!!). Chosing Susie was such a great decision, so much so that my sister booked her for her wedding in 2014.

I can honestly say Suzanne was one of the best decisions I made in this whole process of wedding planning. She and her husband, Alan, are incredibly friendly, professional and most importantly talented. I've received so many compliments on the pictures and the only problem is figuring out which ones I want to frame. Suzanne offers the kind of artistic eye usually reserved for far more expensive and pretentious photographers. Highly recommend.

Susie was absolutely amazing! She was at the wedding start to finish and worked hard to capture every moment. We had a cold winter wedding, but her sense of adventure led to beautiful outdoor portraits.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
