Susy Shearer Photography bio picture

Welcome!

Hello and thanks for checking out my blog!  My name is Susy Shearer and I'm a portrait and wedding photographer based out of Burbank, CA.  Here you will find the latest on my most recent portrait sessions and weddings, as well as a peek into my personal life. If you are in need of a photographer or would like to see more of my work, please use the "Galleries" link above to visit my website.

Things I love:
•  My children…they totally inspire me, make me laugh every single day and I am so proud to be their mom.
•  My husband Phil.  I married my High School Sweetheart, he is my life and my inspiration.  He believes in me in everything I do. 
•  Laughing and happiness. 
•  My family - they are always there with their love and support. 
•  Romance...I'm a hopeless romantic. 
•  Disneyland - it is the happiest place on earth.
•  Sushi and ice cream (but not together...lol). 
•  Christmas…my absolute favorite holiday and time of year.

What inspires me:
•  My job.  I feel truly blessed to be doing what I am so passionate about...capturing those special moments, emotions and personalities of the important people in our lives.
•  Life.
•  My friends - I have the best friends in the world.
•  Music...Music...Music...I can't work or live without it. 
•  I constantly find inspiration everywhere I go...in people, places and things!

My style:
•  Has been described as fresh, fun and colorful and I believe that captures what I try to do perfectly.  When I’m behind the camera, I often wonder how in the world I got so lucky…I absolutely LOVE what I do.  I am addicted to life, love and laughter.

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my blog and read a little bit about me.  If you are interested in booking a session, have any questions, or just want to say "hi" leave me a comment or drop me a line!  Thanks for visiting!

xoxo,
Susy

Justine | Los Angeles Portrait Photographer

I had not seen Justine in about a year and I couldn’t believe how much she had grown up. Darn these kids for growing up way too fast…lol. I always knew she would be a pretty girl but when I saw her, she had turned into a beautiful teenager!

She needed new headshots and portraits so we crossed our fingers that it wouldn’t rain and headed out.  We got so lucky because the sun would come out from behind the clouds for a few minutes at a time and then go back, but it never rained… yahoo!!

Justine thank you so much – I had such a BLAST!  Here are some of my favorites from the session – I hope you like them too Mom, Dad and Marissa!

Happy New Year!

This was our Holiday card this year!

Shearer Holiday Card

March 5, 2010 - 4:36 pm Nathans Big Sis!!!AKA: Kaitlin! - I love that picture of us at the christmas tree. I love my family!!!

Happy Holidays!

What happened to 2009?  I can’t believe it’s almost over.  I swear the older I get the faster time fly’s…yeesh!  We have been so busy with last minute holiday photo sessions, errands, functions and get-together’s that I have totally neglected my blog.  But I had to post a few pictures.

Christmas time has got to be my favorite time of the year.  What’s not to like?  Hot Chocolate, Presents, Egg nog (but my family doesn’t like it except for me…shame on them…huh?) and did I say presents?  I like everything except the extra pounds I always gain eating all the baked goods and delicious foods.  Speaking of baked goods…I am not the one who bakes in the family…it is my gorgeous hubby.

Nuff said…here he is in action with some help from the kids and friends!
