    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.

    Absolutely incredible

    Suzanne was the most incredible photographer we could have ever imagined. From the moment we spoke on the first call I knew I had found the right photographer for our wedding. She made a point of understanding us as a couple so that she could capture our day as it truly was- magical and perfect. She is also just so intuitive with the camera and so efficient- she’s able to capture the most incredible photos in such a short span of time- she just knows where to be, what to say, how to position herself and us- she’s a master of her craft. Also, on the day of, she really acted as a calming and centering energy. She makes a point of really understanding her brides as people- she just knew the exact right thing to say, and honestly, helped to protect my sanity on my wedding day. I am struggling to find the words to capture what a wonderful presence she was on my wedding day. Even my guests commented on how lovely she is. When I got my wedding photos I was totally blown away. The photos were absolutely stunning. The colors were vivid, she captured all the details- I have no idea how or when, but she really caught all of the most magical moments of our wedding. It was the most beautiful set of photos I've ever seen. I had no idea how to chose for our album. Weddings are a moment in personal history. It's a moment where your families and your loved ones come together to celebrate your union. Suzanne understands that. For her it's about the people, capturing the day as it is, in all of its beauty and magic. Every time I go back to the photos, I get to relive the most wonderful day of my life again and again. I have Suzanne to thank for that because she truly captured every aspect of our day so beautifully and perfectly. I didn't know a photographer could be as incredible as she is. She’s amazing. The photos were incredible, the day was perfect, and thanks to her I can revisit the magic over and over again.

    Great photographer

    Suzzane did a great job for us in collaboration with her frequent videographer Sean Pettis. Compositions were great, with lots of choices for particular scenes, including some truly outstanding images that would stand alone outside a wedding album.

    Most essential part to our special day 🤍✨

    Suzanne’s efforts on our wedding day truly blew us away. We are so grateful for her incredible work behind the camera! We received a sneak peek within days and our gallery shortly following. Beyond that, her ability to make us and our family comfortable in front of the camera was priceless - that’s a hard thing to do! Her support by helping hold phones, grabbing the florals, coordinating who needs to be where and when, helpful tips on dress readjustments, how to pose, timing, and vibrant energy from the moment she walked in made the entire experience even more special. She was the most essential part of our celebration. The photos created lasting memories we will cherish forever.

    Suzanne is amazing!!

    When we started our planning process in 2021 I knew that the photographer would be one of the most important parts of our day. We had a small wedding (50 people) so it was important to us that our photographer captured all the moments, big and small, so we could share it with friends and family. Suzanne did just that if not more. She knew exactly what our vision was without us having to say anything!!! She is amazing to work with- super easy to communicate with, quick to respond to emails, and the best at her job! Not only did she capture all our special moments on the day of the wedding- she made sure my hair and makeup looked great as the day went on, helped put my veil on before walking down the aisle, and immediately made everyone feel at peace when the day can get chaotic. We had all of our pictures back within 10 days of the wedding and received a “sneak peak” the day after our wedding. I highly recommend Suzanne for anyone looking for a photographer, she is the best!!

    Suzanne is the best!

    Suzanne has been so wonderful to work with! She’s so warm and friendly and you immediately feel comfortable with her. She’s also an incredibly skilled photographer and knows how to make posing for photos fun, efficient and helps keep energy levels high so the photos really reflect the joy of the day. It’s like watching a master at work! She did both our engagement and wedding photos and we definitely see more sessions with Suzanne in our future. Suzanne, thank you for capturing such special moments in our lives!

    Top Tier Photography Professional

    In typical pandemic fashion our wedding was postponed from 2020 to 2021. We waited to book a photographer (a little burnt out and lazy) and were so lucky we were able to book Suzanne - who was busy even in a pandemic! She came highly recommended by our wedding planner and we totally understand why! She is a master of her craft. The photography speaks for itself - beautiful lighting and editing. What you can't see in her portfolio is the amazing person she is - she made all our of guests feel comfortable and at ease. She was excellent at suggesting poses and ideas. Her site for selecting favorites and compiling an album was seamless and she was lightning fast at incorporating edits and suggestions. I can't stress how wonderful our experience was with Suzanne! Book her well in advance. You will not be disappointed.

    Simply the best!

    Suzanne was absolutely amazing. She helped bring magic to the day. She was calm and collected which helped us fully enjoy our day. She managed family requests while still keeping our vision a priority. She made us feel at ease when taking photos (my husband hates pictures) and the final products came out breathtaking. She worked so well with our whole wedding crew as well! I can’t say enough good things! She has an eye for capturing all the details with ease.

    Best Decision Ever!

    The moment we met Suzanne, we just knew! She has become more than just our favorite photographer because she's such a sweet and caring soul with a true passion for her work. Suzanne will ease all of your worries or nerves so you can actually enjoy the process. I will never forget her reassuring words in the moments I needed them most. You can trust that she will deliver an amazing gallery that captures you and your loved ones perfectly. We were so impressed with how quickly she got us sneak peak photos and our complete wedding gallery! We can't wait to work with Suzanne again in the near future.

    One of the Most Genuine, Authentic & Truly Breathtaking Photographers in the Business

    Suzanne was an absolute professional and incredible photographer to work with, who truly captured our utter most vision and the most beautiful results we could have ever imagined.

    My fiance (at the time), and I were honestly not prioritizing photos when planning our wedding. We both had been to so many weddings where the photographer monopolized the day and took away from the enjoyment of the precious moment by forcing the couple to take end on end of photos that seemed staged and unnatural.

    However, when my make up artist (special shout out to Carrie Aldous), recommended Suzanne, I knew she would only have our best interests at heart. From the moment I had my first call with Suzanne, I knew she truly "got it" and was going to bring us the wedding moments we were envisioning.

    Everything felt so natural and authentic. As a bride, with so many things on my mind on wedding day, Suzanne was the least of my worries and a breath of fresh air! She knew exactly the best and most beautiful moments to capture. And understood the candid portraits come out the best. My husband and I felt like she was never there, but also always there, if that makes sense. We were truly able to enjoy every aspect of our wedding. And when the photographs came back, we were both blown away and sincerely brought to tears, by how every single precious moment was captured.

    I would recommend Suzanne for any couple who is looking for authentic, genuine, natural; and extremely beautiful and breath taking wedding photography. Suzanne is absolutely one of the best in the business. And this is coming from a couple who got married later in life (while still our first marriage), and who have been to a lot of weddings.

    Suzanne is the best!

    Suzanne is the person you want standing next to you on your wedding day! Her kind, calm energy will make you feel comfortable and cared for on a stressful day. Not to mention she is so talented and you’ll be very happy with the moments she captured on your big day. She was the photographer at my sister’s wedding and has now become our entire family’s go to photographer. I even selected my wedding date based on her availability because there was no one else I wanted there but her. She is a great photographer but also a great human and a rare soul who truly loves her job!

    Suzanne captured ALL the magic of the day

    I cannot stop smiling looking at the photos from my wedding! We were lucky enough to have met her at my sister's wedding in Calstoga, CA. My whole family immediately connected with Suzanne and we can't wait to see her next. My wedding was in San Francisco and my family was so blessed to have seen her talent shine in both environments. Her city photos are classic, timeless and captured all the emotions, excitement, tradition, and love of the day. Que, "I left my heart in San Francisco", thank you Suzanne!

    The best of the best!!

    Suzanne is the absolute best! She takes her time to get an idea of what you want out of your photos and gets to know you as a person. She makes sure you feel comfortable in front of the camera, have fun, and let your personality shine. She is such a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process - from booking and planning to your wedding day and beyond. She is quick to respond, caters to your every need, and not to mention she is the sweetest, most caring woman. She is much more like a friend than just another wedding vendor. And her turnaround time is about 10 times quicker than most photographers while still providing the best quality! I feel so blessed to work with such a talented photographer to capture the best day of my life. The pictures are better than I ever could have imagined - I can't stop going back and looking at them over and over again in complete awe! If you want the perfect photos that you will forever cherish, Suzanne is definitely the one you want!

    Amazing wedding photographer!

    We eloped in Napa last week and Suzanne was recommended to us by our wedding planner. We couldn't have chosen a more wonderful photographer to capture our wedding day! She made me feel comfortable in front of the camera and caught our most candid moments. Suzanne is quick to respond to emails which was very helpful when planning a destination wedding. I couldn't be happier with our photos! She's professional, punctual, talented and a beautiful human being. Thank you, Suzanne, for taking such good care of us on our wedding day. We are forever grateful.

    Best Photographer in Napa!

    We couldn't be more thankful that we found Suzanne to photograph our engagement shoot and wedding. I instantly connected with Suzanne and knew she had to be our photographer. She took the time to really get to know my husband and me, traveled 2 hours to do our engagement shoot and made us extremely comfortable throughout our big day.

    Suzanne was very familiar with our wedding venue which was amazing. She knew exactly where and when we needed to get certain shots in and we couldn't be happier with the results! Suzanne also was incredibly efficient. It was important for us to enjoy our day and Suzanne made sure we were not absent from our celebration.

    Lastly, the album Suzanne includes in her wedding packages are stunning. The quality and care that goes into them is spectacular. We have even asked Suzanne to help us create albums of vacations and special memories, they are truly something you will treasure for a lifetime.

    Thanks Suzanne for everything! We couldn't be happier :)

    The absolute best!

    I have had the pleasure of knowing Suzanne for 5 years. She shot both my sisters’ weddings, and not only captured the beauty and joy of those days, but celebrated with us like a member of the family. She cares so much about the people she photographs and so obviously loves witnessing these special moments. My husband and I were so excited to work with Suzanne that we reached out to her as soon as we had our venue and date secured. Suzanne first did our engagement photos which gave us a chance to feel comfortable in front of the camera; she told us “just do your thing” and she captured us laughing and cuddling and being completely us! Our wedding day was so wonderful, and we felt totally at ease. Suzanne gave us little direction, and just had us “do our thing”. We laughed and cried with her all day long, and our photos are amazing!! If only we could relive all the magic from that day!

    Suzanne is everything you want and & need at your wedding!

    Words cannot express how lucky we were to find Suzanne. From the moment I spoke with her, I knew she was the perfect person to capture our wedding day. She is one of the most genuine and caring people, and is truly so gifted when it comes to photography. She recommended we do an engagement shoot prior to our wedding day to get to know each other, and she made us both feel so comfortable and relaxed throughout the shoot that we knew we were going to be in great hands for our wedding day! From the moment she arrived on site for our wedding, she felt like an extension of our family, and has this calming, warm influence that makes everyone feel right at home which is a huge part of why her photos come out so beautifully. Suzanne is so much more than just a professional, she's someone who truly cares about capturing the magic of your wedding day. We are so grateful to have had her there and to know her.

    I cannot recommend Suzanne enough!

    Suzanne is so professional and highly skilled with wedding photography. She is quick to capture all of the right moments and her photographs for our wedding came out better than I could have imagined. She also posts them to your personal website very quickly, which I loved. She is very personable/easy to talk to and be around. You will not be disappointed if you chose to hire her for your special day. She is amazing!

    It's been almost two months since I received my wedding photos from Suzanne and I still look at them every day in absolute awe! From the moment Suzanne arrived on my wedding day she displayed a sense of calm, grace and overwhelming joy for her role in the event that put me and my guests at ease. She flawlessly snapped photos of a 20 person bridal party and 30+ family members with a natural command over the situation - and always a huge smile on her face! When you love what you do, you usually do it well, and Suzanne could not exemplify that more! As my new husband shared a dance with his 85 year-old grandmother (who got on a plane for the first time in her life to come to our wedding) I saw tears rolling down Suzanne's face as she was still shooting, capturing the beautiful moments that we'll cherish forever.

    We connected with Suzanne on a personal level when we met her at our complimentary engagement session and I knew we were going to love working with her. I didn't know how much I would love the pictures - both the engagement photos and the wedding photos exceeded my expectations by far! I can't say enough about her work, from effortlessly capturing the crowd, to beautiful editing work and speedy delivery, but beyond all of that I truly felt like she was a friend. I hope to work with her again in the future!

    My husband and I were very lucky to get to work with Suzanne for our wedding at Tyge William Cellars in Sonoma, CA on May 12, 2018. She truly did an amazing job on our engagement pictures, rehearsal dinner, and wedding. We loved working with her because she makes everything so easy. Our friends, family, vendors, and everyone loved how smoothly she made taking all of our pictures. She captures all of the pictures you could dream of and more. We are so in love with all of the pictures she took. Everyone has complimented on what great pictures we have. We highly recommend Suzanne for your photographer, you will not be disappointed.

    Suzanne was absolutely amazing to work with! As soon as we talked to her over the phone – we knew we had our photographer. She is calm, easy going and really fun to work with.

    My husband and I both feel uncomfortable in front of the camera and Suzanne instantly put us at ease. Our pictures turned out flawless – very natural and romantic. She was able to capture the atmosphere so well that when we look back at our pictures, we are instantly transported back to our wedding day. Suzanne is also great at understanding space, light and natural surroundings. She was able to get some really great shots of the vineyards, trees, sky and wedding space as well as really great candid photos of family and friends. Moreover – she is fast without sacrificing quality. We (and our families) were so impressed with her ability to get the right shot quickly while doing group family pictures.

    The best part about Suzanne is her personality – she’s incredibly warm, calm and funny. She is able to put everyone at ease – making photos turn out natural. Every wedding guest who encountered Suzanne not only commented on how good she was at capturing moments but how friendly and warm she was.

    Suzanne is so talented – we cannot say enough nice things about our experience with her!

    Suzanne is phenomenal! We looked at 3-4 photographers and knew Suzanne was the one we wanted from the start. She is professional, friendly and charming. On the day of she was focused and attentive but also made all of us feel comfortable and left plenty of room for laughter. Our photos are fantastic, we've got a great mix of whimsical, romantic and the formal. We are thrilled to have worked with Suzanne!!

    I worked with Suzanne for my wedding at Copain winery on August 29th 2015. First off, the single most constant piece of feedback I got from friends and family after the wedding was not how good the food/wine was or how pretty the scenery was (despite all those things being true in my humble opinion ), it was how great my photographer was! I think that’s a huge testament to Suzanne since it’s not common that people fall in love with the photographer at a wedding…but my guests most definitely did. And it wasn’t your easiest wedding - Suzanne had two major hurdles to overcome: 1) my husband, 2) my mother. My husband absolutely hates cameras/people taking pictures of him/large crowds/all eyes on him….so this wedding and specifically the photography portion had every chance of driving him nuts and creating a runaway groom situation. Fortunately for me, Suzanne came to the rescue and even Dave admitted that he barely noticed her (including during the ‘first look’ and the family photos part). My mother, on the other hand was so completely excited to capture this event and if she had her way, we would have spent two full hours taking every possible combination of family photos. Again, Suzanne was there to manage her in such a gentle way that my mom walked away LOVING her probably more than anyone! Okay, so you get the picture. Suzanne is absolutely spectacular and if you get the chance to work with her, you most definitely should. The pictures came out gorgeous, she patiently worked with me to select my favorites, the list goes on. I love love love Suzanne!!

    There is no way I could have chosen a better photographer than Suzanne. I am really nervous in front of a camera but wanted both an affordable and high quality wedding photographer (a needle in a haystack in wine country!). And yet, I found Suzanne. She is the warmest, easiest person to be around and from the moment we spoke on the phone I knew she was The One. She put us completely at ease and made us smile and laugh through our engagement photos and through the stress of our wedding day. In fact, her experience and great suggestions helped us plan a more efficient timeline for the wedding day itself and helped us minimize the post-ceremony photos so we could enjoy more of our reception with our friends and family. Our photos came out stunningly, and I think Suzanne's most notable gift is her ability to capture candid moments that showcased our guests' personalities and their relationships with us and each other. I look forward to working with Suzanne in the future and am forever grateful that we chose her to photograph our wedding!

    We had the wonderful opportunity for work with Suzanne Karp to shoot our wedding photographs, and would recommend her to any couple in the world.

    From the moment we met Suzanne in her design studio and began describing the moments we hoped to capture in pictures, Suzanne was able to show us album after album of the some of the most beautiful wedding photographs that captured the emotions of the events. Two things in particular stood out about Suzanne - her breathtaking photography and a statement she had on her website that she would be unobtrusive and not try to run the show.

    Through a creative long lens, Suzanne was able to capture the intimate details of the wedding ceremony and reception, but we never heard the lens shutter or feel that a camera was in our face. She carefully found the right spot and took the most beautiful pictures of us, our families and friends. The next morning we previewed the sneak peak album and immediately saw the wonderful emotion, sense of love, friendship and celebration in every single picture. She simply is the absolute best photographer we have ever worked with and will be a friend for life.

    I cannot endorse Suzanne Karp enough. I have had the great pleasure of working with Suzanne over the years as a wedding venue coordinator, confidently recommending her to clients and enjoying every moment of working with her from planning through to execution. When it was my turn to be the bride, to say it was an easy choice to hire Suzanne would be an understatement. After tearing up talking about our wedding day, my husband and I waited a whole five minutes before calling her to hire her! I cannot rave enough about her level of commitment, professionalism and genuine investment in her couples. She not only created a custom package to suit our needs, she also designed our save the dates and entire invitation suite using images of our wedding venue. She was such a calming and reassuring presence throughout the whole process and, day of, it was as if we were with family. Suzanne made us feel like we weren’t being photographed but we were confident she was capturing everything we wanted. Unless you want specific staged photos a la Pinterest, let Suzanne do her thing. And, that "thing” is to capture your day, your love your loved ones with such detail and care it will bring you to tears when you receive a sneak peek the next day. Suzanne is now our family and will be the one capturing all the milestones to come. Make your planning easy, enjoyable and incredibly personal - hire Suzanne Karp!

    Suzanne is amazing! she is so easy going and laid back. She does not make you line up in silly orders or asks much of you. She captures the moments perfectly in a quick and easy manner. She made the entire wedding party so grateful to have her there. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who is laid back and fun to work with!!!

    Suzanne is FANTASTIC! My wife and I ended our wedding day feeling as if we'd made two great friends in both Suzanne and her husband Graham (who served as a second photographer for a portion of the day - at NO extra charge!)! Suzanne made the photos one of the easiest parts of our wedding day - fun, quick, and completely positive! We ran behind on our ceremony timing, so Suzanne effortlessly squeezed our bridal photos into the time right after our ceremony, as well as a few more sprinkled through the reception. She would snap photos when we had a moment - and somehow made them each look like a quality picture with us alone. It allowed us to both thoroughly enjoy our reception & cocktail hour, but still end up with many of the photos we wanted from our wedding day! And she has such a laid back and fun personality that she (and Graham too!) was AWESOME to just have around all day! She cried with us at our first dance, she boogied on the dance floor while taking pics, and she helped keep us on track (when a not-so-useful wedding coordinator was nowhere to be found). My wife and I couldn't imagine our wedding day with out Suzanne & Graham...you can't go wrong with hiring them!

    Suzanne was absolutely amazing! For starters, she was personable and informative from the get go. She answered all of my questions in our initial email and was able to help me determine exactly what kind of package I was looking for. My husband and I had to meet with her fairly early on in the planning process (about 9 months before the wedding) because we were moving to Germany and wouldn't be back in the States until just before the wedding. Suzanne was great about emailing and checking in with us every so often until the big day, and was able to work with the venue and the caterer to coordinate the schedule for the night. On the day of, Suzanne's calm, collected nature made the process very stress fee and quick! She is very efficient, got all of the shots we had asked for (including all of the family shots we needed) and was great with the little kids who would have otherwise made the portraits drag on. The best part was that my husband and I woke up to a few preview collages the morning after and she had our online gallery up and running in about of week! The pictures are amazing, very real, and every detail was captured. Amazing!

    The best. BEST! We loved her, we felt so comfortable; no silly poses, just natural pictures taking advantage of great lighting and backgrounds. Doesn't even compare to some of the other oddballs we met with before her. We knew the minute we shook hands!

    Suzanne was so wonderful to work with during our wedding planning. She was kind, thoughtful, supportive, prompt and so precessional. She added so much love and emotion into our wedding photos and album. So grateful we had her to capture our special day!
