About Me | Mysite

Hi, I'm Sue!

Thank you for popping into my page! For many years now, photography has been a tool for me to share with others how I see the world; capturing the spirit of nature, of people, of places. Since I was a little girl, travel always excited me. I wanted to learn different languages and cultures, meet different people, see and grow beyond the environment of my small town in Brazil. My mission as a photographer is to create a space where everyone feels safe and comfortable to show up and be nothing short of themselves. We have fun, we laugh, we may shed some happy tears, and maybe have a little dance as we wrap things up! At the end, what you take home are not just photos, they are memories to be cherished and stories to be shared beyond that day!

What to Expect - Photoshoot Day

My style of photography is a little bit different, as I do not pose my clients. But I will give suggestions and some guidance. My goal is for everyone to move freely, show their style and personality, and allow their bodies to move however they wish to or feel comfortable. Going with the flow and not rushing is how I navigate my shoots. You will see how I'm very laid back. If you are camera shy, do not worry. So am I! This is a stress free event!

What to Expect - Post Photoshoot

Although I'm the one taking all photos back with me, you will be a part of the process as I begin working on them. You will know where I am at and how things are looking. Maybe even get a little sneak preview! Once ready, your album will be on a password safe and easy to navigate website. That is where you can download it and share it with loved ones.

My Work

I have been very fortunate to work on a variety of projects and collaborations with so many cool people! Throughout the years, my portfolio grew from fitness instructors, families, couples, seniors, engagements, weddings, products, to maternity, newborns and pets. For many of my shoots, we were meeting for the first time and have been connected since!

Equipment

Currently shooting with a mirrorless Sony camera and a DJI drone. NOTE: drone usage always depends on location & regulations in the area.

Life

Fitness has been a big part of my life for quite some time now. You can catch me either weightlifting, running, hiking, riding my longboard, or taking a Zumba/yoga class. I often also enjoy a little wander in nature, taking roadtrips, riding in my Jeep, and spending time with my tribe/loved ones. Fun fact: no matter what I'm doing, my creative brain doesn't usually take a break! I'm always seeing life as an opportunity for capturing and remembering moments!
