I got to spend the afternoon with this beautiful couple at the Brand Library. It was such a beautiful day and the location was just lovely! During the entire shoot I kept doing my “happy dance” because these two are just so cute together. After some time, we headed to Griffith Park for some casual and FUN time. I should mention it was one of the windiest day’s we’ve had in a long time but we had such a great time! Thanks guys, for spending the afternoon with Phil and I. Seriously cannot wait for your wedding in November!

Here are some of my favorites…these two are so adorable and so in love…

My husband and I spent a delightful afternoon with this beautiful family and had so much fun taking family portraits for them.
Such a beautiful family!
Such a cutie-patootie!
They are so lucky to have a beautiful park right next door to their home. – we had a blast!
Beautiful + beautiful!
Did I mention we had a blast…LOL.

We came back to their beautiful home and took a portrait with the whole family!

Father, Daughter night at The Oscars | Burbank Portrait Photographer

Susy — Mon, 12 Mar 2012 21:19:53 +0000

I received a phone call from a wonderful father who received tickets for The Oscars through his work and wanted to get some portraits taken of him and his beautiful daughter. Look how dashing he was in his tuxedo and how beautiful she looked in her gorgeous dress! Thank you Eyon and Susanna – I had such a wonderful time capturing you both…I hope you enjoy your sneak peak!

The father had one request which was to take a couple of portraits with their memorable vehicle that has taken them on many vacations throughout the years and was now also going to take them to The Oscars!

We then headed to Johnny Carson Park and took some fun, casual portraits before they headed off to the Kodak Theatre.

Dad was telling her something really…funny…can you tell!

Look at those beautiful eyes.

She had the most beautiful shoes…can I say WOW!

Handsome baby Nahum | Eagle Rock, CA Portrait Photographer

Susy — Sat, 18 Feb 2012 02:33:43 +0000

My husband and our friend Matthew have known each other for about 29 years – long time friend and one of the nicest guys you will ever meet. When we found out he and his beautiful wife were expecting – we couldn’t be happier for them. They were blessed with a gorgeous baby boy…Nahum! I have longed for the opportunity to do something for this wonderful couple and I was thrilled when I finally got the chance to photograph their stunning family. We met them at their beautiful home and we got to meet their new bundle of joy, take some newborn pictures of Nahum and of the family. Guys…I hope you love these images as much as I do, Susy! xoxo

Loved his many expressions while they were talking to him.

Matthew has been a musician for many years and Nahum loves it when Daddy plays for him.

Adorable!

I told you she was beautiful…

This one has got to be my favorite of the day!

Matthew you’re such a great Dad!

Just precious…

Kym and Rich | Wedding

Susy — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 00:52:11 +0000

Meet Kym and Rich, one of the most fun loving and relaxed couples I’ve gotten the pleasure of photographing on their wedding day. When I first met them…I knew their wedding day would be amazing especially because they were getting married on New Years Eve!

Kym and Rich were surrounded by their family and closest friends to celebrate their big day. Watching them throughout their wedding you just knew that they were made for each other. Not only could you tell how in love they were, but how they were each others best friends and in my opinion that is what marriage is all about, finding a best friend that you’re madly in love with. Both Phil and I are so honored that we were able to be a part of Kym and Rich’s big day and we wish them all the happiness in their years together!

Best wishes, you two!

Happy New Year Everyone!

Wishing everyone a Happy Holiday and a Fabulous New Year 2012!

The Wamplers Headshots!

Susy — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 01:37:02 +0000

I had the pleasure of photographing these gorgeous kids who are siblings and they needed updated headshots! They moved out here from Tipp City, Ohio to pursue acting careers and they are already “Pros” if you ask me. We had a great time shooting on location and at my studio. Here are a couple of my favorites!

The Beautiful Cohen Family | Los Angeles Portrait Photographer

Susy — Fri, 24 Jun 2011 22:20:52 +0000

I’ve had the pleasure of photographing this beautiful family this past year. I first got to photograph Mitchy when he was just six weeks old and then at six months old we had a great day at the park. I can’t believe how time has flown and he just turned a year old. So we took a drive to Santa Monica Beach and we had a wonderful time just hanging out.

Wonderful news…they are pregnant again and this time with a baby girl and I am so excited for them. I’m looking forward to meeting their new bundle of joy due in August. Thank you so much Jeff, Francoise and Mitchy…I had a blast spending the afternoon with your gorgeous family. Here are some of my favorites!

Orange County Photog Shootout at Serra Madre

Susy — Fri, 29 Apr 2011 02:00:58 +0000

For the longest time I’ve been wanting to attend a SoCal Photog Shootout and every time there was an event I was either photographing an event or had family commitments. So a few weeks ago I was able to attend and had a wonderful time meeting and working with some great photographers.

So approximately 50+ photographers and leaders arrived at the Serra Plaza in San Juan Capistrano and it was a gorgeous day! They had models being made up, dressed up, and done up in Couture dresses. They also had tables beautifully set up with pale sea greens and peach, eggs and tarts…it was so pretty. In another corner, a sweets table had been arranged with “yummy goodies”.

Here are my favorite images from the day – enjoy!

{ Toluca Lake Wedding | Erin and Toby }

Susy — Mon, 07 Mar 2011 22:41:31 +0000

Erin and Toby tied the knot! They were such a beautiful couple and had their special day at Ramsey’s at the Club in Toluca Lake. It rained and (if you can believe it) actually SNOWED in the San Fernando Valley on their wedding day so we weren’t able to catch all of the portraits we had originally planned, but did end up capturing the beautiful moments of that day.

A huge THANK YOU to Debra Morrison for assisting me.

The girls had their hair done at the local Handzz & Strandzz salon and then headed to the Hotel Amarano in Burbank to get ready. Make-up was done by Jenny Araiza of Glamours Designs.

The groomsmen got ready at a friend’s house and had a relaxing afternoon which included lunch, getting prepped and playing a game of pool!It stopped raining for a few minutes so I could get this exterior shot of the beautiful venue.

The gorgeous bride and handsome groom. They had taken dance lessons and did a wonderful job showing off their new skills!

One of the groomsmen was able to put this snowball together…we were all still shocked it snowed in the Valley!

The bride and groom wanted to do something different so they decided on donuts that the guests could decorate themselves… Everyone had a great time!

A very memorable Father-Daughter and Mother-Son dance.

Rebecca sang some beautiful songs for the bride and groom.

Everyone took to the dance floor for the rest of the night and had a blast!

I was able to whisk Erin and Toby away for a few minutes to get some shots of just the two of them.
