About
Hi there! I’m Sue, a Dauphin Island local, lemonade-lovin' mom, wife, and believer.
I’m passionate about photography, people, and pens (the felt-tip ones, to be exact!).
may my life be a reflection of him
My faith is the cornerstone of my life and business.
But it wasn’t always this way. At an early age, photography was placed in my life, but I ignored that passion to pursue other worldy desires. I looked for validation in achievement after achievement, but still felt lost, confused, and alone. But Jesus tugged at my heart, and He’s had it ever since. He affirmed by passion for photography and called me to use this skill to His glory. Now I’m honored to photograph the beauty of God’s greatest masterpiece – you.
"I’m layered, like a good story. Or a really great cake."
Yes, I’m the “photographer friend”—but there’s so much more to me than what’s seen through the lens.
I’ve been blessed to live near the beautiful shores of Dauphin Island for the past 13 years, and they’ve become more than a backdrop—they’ve shaped how I see beauty, light, and life. I share this little slice of coastal heaven with my husband, Britton (an offshore fisherman with stories as deep as the sea), and our four amazing kids.
Around here, I wear a lot of hats—mom, wife, photographer, Bible study leader, homeschool teacher, crafter, and probably a few more depending on the day. Life is full, sometimes chaotic, always meaningful.
Photography is a huge part of my story, but it’s not the whole story. I love deep conversations that linger long after they’re over, listening to everything from worship to alternative to 90's country, organizing anything I can get my hands on, and crafting just about anything with heart and creativity. I cry at anything remotely heartfelt, find joy in the smallest, simplest things, and believe deeply in the power of capturing moments that matter—big and small.

At the center of it all is my faith—it shapes how I see the world, how I serve others, and how I seek beauty in the everyday.
