We’re the Susnjara’s, it’s wonderful to meet you!

The idea for the Susnjara’s Photo + Film started back before we even realized it was happening!

In December of 2017, Amy gifted Marko his first camera because after a year of dating, she noticed that he couldn’t let a single moment go by without capturing a photo on his phone. Also during this time, Amy and Marko were balling on that college student budget, so with every birthday, Marko would create a beautiful video montage for Amy as gifts. As time went on, it was increasingly obvious that Marko had a passion for stories and moments and was naturally talented at the re-telling of their love story. Marko had a gift.

Marko loved his camera, and started to notice that any time Amy snagged a photo on his camera, well, it was better. Much better. From photos on her phone to the nicer ones on his DSLR camera, it was clear: Amy had a gift.

Amy and Marko experienced a tumultuous time in 2020 after Amy lost her job due to COVID, which ended up being a big blessing in disguise. In May of 2020, Marko returned the favor from 2017 and bought Amy her first DSLR, a Canon t7, one she had mentioned time and time again as the camera she had her eye on for a VERY long time. And the rest was history!

After finding an incredible photography mentor, Amy focused intently on growing her skills, and in 2021, Marko joined the wedding business world as a wedding videographer, yearning to fulfill his itch to capture and tell the stories of couples who are wildly in love!
