My name is Suzanne Thompson. I enjoy photography, dining at non-chain restaurants, trying new vegetarian recipes, reading, blogging, and exploring new locations...the three most valuable are family, faith, and friends.
I was born in England, moved to Ethiopia when I was four, then to America when I was seven. In American, I have lived in eight states. Bob and I were married in January 2010 and we currently live in California and North Carolina.
Today, I got to photography and adorable Baby Bailey and her photogenic brother, Dillon. What a cute couple of siblings. Dillon is going to be a wonderful big brother. Bailey’s nursery theme is “Paris” and is decorated in black and pink. Click here to see images from her baby shower.

So excited today to be able to attend the Jasmine Star Workshop. Last time Jasmine offered a workshop, it sold out in an hour and I just missed getting in. Bob and I had talked about me going the next time the workshop was offered. But, then we got engaged and starting planning a January...
