Hiding In
Plain Sight

Photographs exploring mood, irony, wonder,
and the moments that often go unnoticed.

Artist Statement

Susan's images explore mood, irony, wonder, and the moments that often go unnoticed in everyday life.

She is fascinated by what people overlook. Familiar landmarks, fleeting interactions, changing weather, and quiet details hiding in plain sight. Through observation, timing, light, and atmosphere, she looks for the stories and emotions that exist just beyond where most people direct their attention.

Susan is less interested in documenting a place than in revealing how it feels to be there. Her photographs invite viewers to pause, look again, and discover what may have been in front of them all along.

The work begins with four questions

I

What have we stopped seeing because it has become familiar?

II

What is happening around us while we are focused elsewhere?

III

How do light, weather, and perspective change our understanding of a place?

IV

What stories, emotions, and connections are hiding in plain sight?

Laundry Breeze
Laundry Breeze

Along a busy main road, vibrant laundry danced in the wind between two homes. As people hurried in and out of the nearby drive-in coffee shop, I was drawn to the color, movement, and simple beauty of a moment many would never notice.

Instruction & Learning

The Image Lab

The Image Lab is a live online monthly coaching program built around image feedback, collaborative coaching, and personalized guidance. Susan created it based on her own needs early in her career, when she wished she'd had a coach to help her understand light, strengthen her compositions, and shorten the learning curve.
