I just loved every minute of my photo shoot with Susan where I got to observe what an artist she truly is. With 20 years of experience she really knows her craft and is the most awesome creative director to set up exactly the angles, lighting, styling, mood, poses that will flatter the most. She knows exactly what to do with hands, positioning, angle of face, chin higher or lower - it's such a craft! She's got the eye and really truly captures the spirit. I look so beautiful in my photos and just recommend this so much to anyone who'd like to capture themselves in the most magical fantastical way. More...

Susan is a genius behind the camera! Every shoot with Susan is so much fun! She’s a fab hairdresser and makeup artist too! I much prefer to be behind the scenes but confidence isn’t an issue with Susan. She knows how to put you at ease and somehow despite me being awkwardly poised and pulling weird faces, the photos are always amazing. The only issue is choosing from the hundreds of amazing options!

The MOST outstanding photographer I've ever worked with. Susan made me look like a million dollars and because of her photos of me that I've used in various media, I've had massive opportunities open up. I can not recommend Susan enough and am going to write to her now for another shoot. More...

I highly recommend Susie as a real professional in her field. Firstly she is an amazing photographer and secondly she has an incredible calmness about her that makes one feel comfortable straight away. I took my teenage daughter to a halloween photoshoot with Susie, my daughter loved every minute of it and the results are incredible. We got some stunning images from the session. We were welcomed into her studio and the whole ambiance was very friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be looking forward to working with Susie again very soon More...

I have admired Susan's work for a while now, and i was dead pleased when she talked about working together.From the off, her communication is spot on, she makes sure you have all the details you need So i could find the studio easily. She was so welcoming from the moment i arrived, and happy to offer coffee whilst we had a chat about styling the shoot, she also came into her own when doing my Make Up and Hair, I felt completely pampered and the work was beautiful.During the shoot, her direction is easy to follow and she helps you to create a really striking look whilst also flattering your body shape.I highly reccommend Susan to anybody, no doubt you will be wanting to go back again and again.

Q&As

I think the secret to a great portrait is making your subject relaxed and feel confident. I include Hair and makeup in nearly all my shoot packages and that really helps with confidence. I also am really patient and really using posing to really show the figure in a flattering way. I love photographing real women and showing them a whole new way to see themselves.

I usually ask why you are doing the photoshoot. Is it for you? Is it for a confidence boost? Is it to create a new spark in your relationship? Is it because you want your children to have some nice photos of you one day as you hate being photographed and don't exist in photographs?

I want to get to know my clients needs and understand a bit about them.

I love the way that a photoshoot can really change the way a person sees themselves. It can really be an amazing confidence boost and really help people with body image.

I had a background in sculpture, and always loved working with the human form... Photography and especially portraits, boudoir and fitness photography and fashion photography really are amazing ways to express my creativity.

I stand out from other photographers because I have a genuine love of making people love their own skin. I am incredibly detail oriented when it comes to posing... and will give my subjects a lot of direction to get the shot right. In addition to that the added bonus of having hair and make-up always included in my packages makes my work really stand out from other portrait photographers locally. I pride myself on having my own unique style of photography. I try to be unique and think outside the box.

Services

I have a beautiful boudoir set in my studio in Hove, and also occasionally rent beautiful hotels as locations. A shoot usually includes hair and make up and about three to four outfits. They are loads of fun and amazing for peoples confidence. I also offer boudoir photo shoot parties if you wanted to get a few friends together or your bridesmaids or friends for a fun girls day out.... Bring your own fizz... I also specialize in bridal boudoir photo sessions.

I love photographing people and showing them how beautiful they are. All my shoot packages include hair and make up so you will look amazing before you get in front of the lens. An appointment will take about three hours and you will need to bring about 4 -5 outfits. I will show you a whole new way of seeing yourself. I will create images that you will love and that flatter your figure and show the best possible version of yourself. I am LGBTIGQ friendly. All people deserve to love their bodies.

I love working with fitness models, Competition bodybuilders and other athletes who are looking for a gentler approach to fitness photography.

I love showing the softer side of female bodybuilders especially but also offer photoshoots to men who are looking for an edgier more artistic photographic style than most of my competitors in this field.
