As a San Francisco Bay Area wedding photographer, I specialize in an authentic storytelling approach. My approach puts emotion center-stage, amidst intentionally chosen details that tell a couple's unique love story. Florals in colors that hold meaning, wine from vineyards they've visited together, elements that reflect their shared history rather than trends. My couples prioritize presence, and deeply cherish the opportunity to celebrate with everyone they love. With an eye for thoughtful composition and beautiful light, I stay in tune with the emotional moments that make your day significant. The tears, the joy, the love you live in.
I'm thrilled you're here and excited to create something beautiful together.

I first reached out to her to help coordinate our surprise proposal, and since then, she has captured breathtaking moments from our engagement, civil ceremony, and our larger wedding celebration. We could not be happier with how every single photo has turned out.
She captures light and color in a subtle way that feels natural and yet is filled with interesting details. If I could think of one word that describes her style, it is sincere.
We could not recommend sustudio more highly and would give more than five stars if we could. We can’t wait to book many more photo sessions with her in the future!

Choosing Ji Su was one of the best decisions I made

Working with Ji Su for both my engagement photoshoot and wedding day was an absolute pleasure, and undoubtedly the best decision I made during my wedding process. She went above and beyond in finding gorgeous locations and spots to ensure that every detail was perfect. On my wedding day, Ji Su truly showed her leadership and talent. From dealing with the rainy weather to making our whole family feel at ease and confident as if we were all stars. We adore her photos and it is amazing to be able to look back and feel the real and beautiful emotions of the day that we'll cherish forever.
"What impressed me the most was Ji Su's genuine interest in understanding my needs."

So many things we want to say about Ji Su's work and they were all very positive! Ji Su was overall patient, understanding, and looked out for us when we asked her questions about the process and providing us advice about certain photos we would like to take. Ji Su took the time to video call us or message us if we have questions about the day of and made sure to clarify details with us all the way until the day of the wedding. We really liked looking through the photos back and again to see what happened that day since everything can fly by so fast.
