about simply by suzy
Chicago Photographers, Suzzane Brown, MPH (also known as Suzy!) & Vasili Gryfakis, work together in Chicago’s first premier pregnancy, birth, newborn and family photography studio. We met years ago while working at a local Whole Foods. He was the stock boy, I was the bag girl and, well, the rest is history… :) Now we photograph love of all kinds together (including a select number of weddings each year) and are proud to be Chicago’s first and only premier photography studio that offers a full range of services to capture your life and love at all stages whether it be pregnancy photography, birth photography, newborn photography or family photography. Our style has been described as organic and simple, and we strongly believe in the importance of giving you more than just memories of how you look but rather who you are. And because of that we take a candid photojournalistic approach in order to capture your real, authentic connections. In addition to our unique story-telling approach when documenting you and your family, we pride ourselves on the deep, long-lasting relationships we typically develop with our clients so don’t be surprised if we ask you out for brunch or coffee one day to catch up on your life after our session together! On a more professional level, Suzy has done work for organizations such as the Women’s Health Foundation and Motion PR and photographed local public figures including Angi Taylor with Chicago’s KISS FM. Suzy also received her MPH in Public Health while focusing much of her studies on Maternal/Child Health in addition to being a certified photographer for Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep
Suzy, i just discovered your website b/c of Angi from Kiss FM, for the first time in my life, i got sooo incredibly emotional when i saw all your photographs. I am in awe…you capture something that other people would have never seen, in a way that they might not have never imagined. I believe i found my photographer for the future endevours, i am 27 yrs old and at this time am not planning a wedding,baby or anything in that sense but I hope that one day i would have the pleasure of working with you. I wish and hope that your art reaches more people. God gave u a gift and your clients are lucky enough and have the honor of having those memories comes alive. Best Wishes, Michelle Gorski.
Suzy, Thank You again for taking the most INCREDIBLE pictures of Shay..as I believe I messaged you before, I cried like a baby when I saw them and am tearing up right now just thinking about them;) That day will forever be a huge memory, and not only for Sean and I, but for our entire family and all our friends as we sent pics out to all of them. Your talent is one that can’t be compared to and I hope we can work with you again! Thank you, love Shauna
