About the Photographer:

When asked about her passion for photography, Susanne jokingly replies that she has always seen the word in squares and rectangles! Susanne fills those shapes with vivid colors, shapes and textures. She specializes in close, intimate views of her subjects, which range from tiny wildflowers to architectural designs. Her compositions often resemble paintings with bold, bright colors. She focuses on the details, looking for a unique and striking view. The camera allows her to share her vision with others.

Susanne continues to be inspired by the beauty of California. Within easy reach of her Saratoga home are Yosemite National Park, Lake Tahoe, the wine region, the coast line, the Sierras, beautiful oak-studded hills, and stunning regional and state parks. Even her own back yard gives her beautiful plants to explore through her lens.

Travel is another of Susanne’s passions which she shares with her husband Bob. Fortunately, travel and photography go hand in hand. She has photographed throughout Europe, Southern Africa and Central America.

Susanne’s fine art photography has been honored with numerous local, national and international awards and several of her images have been published in Popular Photography magazine. She has exhibited in galleries and local libraries. The Palo Alto Medical Foundation owns an extensive collection which is exhibited in the Nuclear Medicine Department and throughout the clinic. Susanne’s photographic art is also displayed at the new Kaiser Hospital in Santa Clara, CA.
