Susie O'Connor, MPA
Welcome to my website. I’m glad you’re here!!
Now the awkward “tell me about yourself” section. Just kidding, I’m basically an open book.
A bit about me: I'm an avid traveler, having explored 32 countries so far (with 163 more on my bucket list!). This adventurous spirit fuels my passion for capturing the unique beauty in every individual and moment.
What truly inspires me?
- The breathtaking scenery of the Canadian Rockies
- Kayaking with my beloved furry companion
- Diving into the vibrant cultures and warm waters of exotic destinations
- Savoring delicious food and exquisite wine
- Continuously learning and embracing new challenges
I've always had a deep love for photography. In today's world of instant selfies, classic portraiture sometimes feels like a lost art. At Images Studios Photographic Arts, we blend a contemporary, fun approach with time-honored techniques to create natural and relaxed portraits that will be cherished for generations.
Growing up in a family photography business instilled in me a deep appreciation for the art of capturing and preserving precious moments. I'm fortunate to have learned from my father, and we've grown together artistically over the years.
Continual learning is essential to my growth as an artist. As a proud member of the Professional Photographers of Canada, I earned my Master of Photographic Arts designation and have been honored with numerous provincial and national awards, including the prestigious title of Portrait Photographer of the Year in Alberta.
I'm passionate about telling your unique story through photography. Whether in my Cold Lake studio or on location, I'm happy to travel throughout the Lakeland region (Bonnyville, St. Paul, Lac La Biche, Lloydminster) and even to the stunning Canadian Rockies in Jasper and Banff National Parks.
Let's celebrate life together. I'm excited to create beautiful images that will be treasured for years to come.
