Sue found her love of photography through her love of art and drive to be an artist. After receiving her degree in photography she continued her education by attaining a Master of Photography Degree from both the Professional Photographers of America(PPA), and the Wedding and Portrait Photographers International(WPPI). Sue met and married her husband Steve and together they had the opportunity to have lived, and traveled around the country. Through their travels they were blessed with 2 children, son Riley, and their daughter Mckenzie. Additionally we recently added to our family, our Daughter Mckenzie, married Brad, and they have blessed us with 2 Grandchildren Freya, and Markus. Sue and Steve moved to Ludington Michigan in 2001 and opened their photography studio.
