About me

Susan Paige is a based in Montreal, Quebec (between travels). 

“While visiting Maverick’s in San Francisco, driving along the Pacific Coast, it reminded me what brings me joy, the beach, camera in hand, surrounded by surfing.”

A taste for adventure has taken her through various careers and landscapes. With a degree in commercial photography, but primarily educated in fashion design, her professional experience has moved into marketing & entrepreneurship. Her background in tourism & hospitality originally launched her nomadic lifestyle.

Artistic background
My artistic background developing from design, fashion & nature.

I have a creative background in design, fashion, and visual storytelling, with experience in graphic design, product development, and marketing. This foundation informs my photography, giving my work a strong sense of composition, style, and brand-focused narrative.

What I do
Specializing in surf, travel, and lifestyle imagery, creating natural, story-driven visuals for brands, destinations, and creatives. My work focuses on authentic moments in outdoor environments, blending adventure, coastal culture, and editorial-style photography.

Fashion has been a long part of my life and lifestyle. Creativity style has always been a part of how I expressed myself, through clothing, hairstyles and music. It became my focus of study then my career for more than a decade, in design, marketing and production. As a photographer, it showcases through my visual composition and post production editing style. It also influences how I work. While I do love product and fashion photography, my style shows through with all projects and clients I work with. I enjoy working with those who value quality & style. Presenting a product or service with style elevates & enhances the existing quality. While generative AI has been a big game changer, and can be a great tool to help speed post production, it is not a replacement or needed to create fake images. By using available resources, minimal editing & retouching builds trust with the viewer without extra costs or false advertising. Styling the photoshoot helps the customer visualize themselves as a client or using the product without creating a false narrative..
