Maggie & Jim’s Beautiful Dunes Club Celebration: Narragansett, Rhode Island Wedding Photographer

Maggie & Jim had a wedding day that many couples dream about; late September sunshine, warm breezes, blue skies and their closest friends and family gathered at the beautiful beach front venue, The Dunes Club, in Narragansett, Rhode Island. Everything was lovely, romantic and picturesque. But they also had one of the most fun weddings…

Janelle: South Kingstown, Rhode Island High School Senior Portrait Photographer

Janelle is the ultimate outdoors girl – she loves to spend her time at her friend’s farm, horseback riding, playing soccer and at the beach with family and friends. So when it came time to plan where we would hold her high school senior portrait session, we decided that farm and beach would be our…

Erin: Narragansett, Rhode Island High School Senior Portrait Photographer

I met with Erin, her mom Kim and her best friend Julia at Scarborough Beach in Narragansett to begin her high school senior portrait session. The women drove down from Massachusetts to capture Erin’s portraits at the beach where she loves to spend her time, which I was so grateful for! We had a gorgeous…

Logan in Narrow River: Rhode Island Family & Children’s Portrait Photographer

This part of summer in New England is the sweet spot. The water is comfortably warm, summer clothing is gently broken-in, sand dusts the seats of our cars and sun-kissed skin and hair reflects our time spent outside.  The last school year is blissfully in the past, yet the start of a new school year…

Reid is a Big Brother! Welcome Baby Sister Bridget: Rhode Island & Massachusetts Family Portrait Photographer

In 2012 I had the pleasure of photographing Tristan & Katie’s wedding on Block Island. It was a beautiful day in every aspect and the newlyweds quickly become some of my favorite clients ever. We’ve stayed in touch, and a little over two years ago they had their first child, a son, Reid. Two weeks…

Cathryn & Anthony’s Memorial Day Weekend Wedding in Narragansett, Rhode Island

This wedding was a hometown favorite for me! Getting ready photos at The Break Hotel, a South Ferry Church wedding ceremony and reception at The Towers – all three locations so perfectly South County, Rhode Island – and unique in their own way to this gorgeous coastal town where I live and work.  I can’t think…

Schold Family: Narragansett, Rhode Island Family Portrait Photographer

I love photographing the Schold Family’s portraits every year. Tara & Ross are raising such fun, intelligent, polite and interesting boys, which is not surprising because they are two incredibly funny people themselves and our sessions are always filled with laughter. It’s always a pleasure to spend an hour or so with them catching up…

About Susan

My wedding and portrait photography business is located in the heart of South County, Rhode Island close to URI and the scenic, south coast beaches. I grew up here and feel so lucky to be able to work and create in such a beautiful location! My approach to photography is much like my approach to life: creative, relaxed, natural and fun. I would describe my style as a blend of candid & photojournalistic with traditional & artistic images. I love taking the time to create some beautiful, romantic portraits of my brides & grooms, but also the spontaneous moments throught the wedding day. 

I consider my website and blog a place where I can visually journal about the amazing people and places I get to photograph. Not only do I consider myself exceptionally lucky to be making a living taking photographs for people at important moments in their lives, but I also get to meet an amazing cross section of people I might not otherwise get to know. In the ten years I have been in business, I have had the chance to photograph couples riding high on the excitement of their recent engagement, on their wedding day, parents-to-be waiting to meet their new child, newborn babies, children marking milestone birthdays and families who want to remember a certain time in their lives by capturing it in a photographic portrait.  

In more recent years, I have had the opportunity to photograph the weddings of younger siblings and friends of previous wedding clients, and the maternity, newborn and family portraits of couples whose weddings I photographed in years past. It feels amazing to know my creative vision of these occasions is a part of their lives and their family history and I am grateful for each and every one of them. When I say I love what I do, it is from a genuine place. I can't imagine doing anything else and feeling as creativly satisfied and pleased to make my clients happy.  

I studied photography at Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) for undergraduate school and received a Master of Fine Arts degree from Southern Illinois University at Carbondale.
