“It isn’t what a picture is of, it is what it is about.”

John Sarkowski

As a photographer, Sue has the technical mind of a scientist and the heart of a musician. She has a careful eye for light and a sense for the dramatic. Capturing timing and movement is her specialty- Her favorite captures are usually transitory and candid moments. Ever-searching, Sue especially enjoys the science and art behind developing and printing her own film photography. She is also an active freelance violinist who has performed as a soloist with orchestra and in ensembles, in storied venues such as Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center in New York City.
