Four and a half years ago I lost a niece shortly after her birth.  She was born at 29 weeks and her lungs weren’t developed enough for survival.  Her twin sister survived and is a beautiful reminder of life.  That experience is what spurred me on into the photography field, so it was natural for […]

This morning I woke up on the couch.  Panic ensued, as I had no idea what day or time it was.  Was I late?  What did I do yesterday? Why am I on the couch? As it turns out, I fell asleep culling photos (aka: choosing my favorites) from the March of Dimes walk yesterday.  […]

A few nights ago we were out celebrating a friends birthday & I wanted a picture.  The restaurant was super dark so we tried a few different shots: Both looked terrible!  One is so dark you can barely tell who is in the picture.  The other is so bright we both look like we’d had […]

You want to talk about a couple who is willing to do whatever it takes?  Meet Brian & Nichole!  I was wearing a coat and a scarf while they were dancing barefoot in the sand during this session.  It. was. freezing.  But Nichole was determined and had the best attitude about the weather.  Brian wasn’t too […]

When I got married 8 years ago I never dreamed I’d be one of those people taking all the gorgeous wedding pictures I used for inspiration.  But here we are, and that’s exactly what’s happening!

You know those weekends where you’re so busy that at the end of it you have no idea what you did?  That’s been the past month around the Fowler household!  In fact, last weekend a friend said, “Wow, you guys have had a busy few days!” and I just stared at her blankly, trying to […]

Have I ever told you about the biggest uncool surprise of my wedding?  It wasn’t when I coughed uncontrollably in the middle of my vows to the point that someone had to bring me a cup of water.  Nope.  That wasn’t it. It also wasn’t when we realized we forgot to tell the DJ our […]

Right now I’m sitting in my office surrounded by paperwork, random props, cameras, a shredder, and some party supplies.  It is so not classy.  But cleaning it isn’t even on my to-do list today.  Why?  Let me back up for a second. At the end of October we bought our first home.  I’ve had a […]

It’s been exactly 10 years since I walked through the mall and met a cute stranger named Josh Fowler. My friend ended up giving him my number & that night as we were eating dinner, my friend said, “Oh Susan, don’t worry. He’ll call, you guys will fall in love & get married & have […]

This bride’s story has touched my heart… and just about everyone’s!  Melissa has a wedding planned for May, but her mom has cancer, and after learning that her mom may not make it to her May wedding, she decided to have a wedding now.  And planned it all in a week! She took some details […]
