From the moment I met Susan I knew she was an incredible human being. I have never met anyone in our industry with such a personal interest in the success of everyone she meets. For me, I will be forever grateful for her kind support and help throughout my career as a photography agent.
I would highly recommend Susan to anyone who is looking to grow their business in the photography industry. Her love and dedication to the world of photography makes her a joy to work with and someone who is truly special.”Doug Truppe - Photo Agent, Doug Truppe Represents
“After being in AtEdge from the start and getting advise from Susan I recently had the pleasure to work on a portfolio edit with her. She had such great insight and constructive direction for my work. Her knowledge of the medium, both commercial and artistic is a resource that very few people have in our business. All of that combined with a natural compassion and care for anyone who is lucky enough to work with her is such a bonus. A great and productive experience and one that has had an enduring effect on me and my work.”James Salzano - Photographer, James Salzano Photography
“Susan cuts to the chase in not only discovering and really seeing what your best work is, but making it flow in the most effective way so that creatives and galleries can clearly see what your true vision is, in a cohesive format.
It’s taking away the excess, and editing the best image connections in your work, so that even you, personally, can see your authentic self and the path to follow in your work.
If that weren’t enough she is a champion of all those who benefit from working with her. Getting galleries and reps to pay attention to whomever she promotes, because they too regard her taste as spot on for what they might be interested in carrying, whether it’s commercial or fine art.
There’s no one like her; in life and in this industry. “Roxanne Lowit - Photographer, Roxanne Lowit Photography
