  • “Susanna has produced a number of films for the Arundel Castle Cricket Foundation over the last 18 months. We have been hugely impressed with her work; the final outputs are of the highest quality and the way in which she engaged with us during the production was excellent. Not only is it all very professional, but she quickly assimilated the vision and we felt she shared our passion for our work, which is not only important to us personally, but this was also reflected in the final versions. She is also very amenable and easy to work with. I would thoroughly recommend her.”

  • “I’m beyond pleased with the content and quality of the short film Susanna curated for my yoga business. Her creative vision and professionalism were second to none from start to finish. Her detailed mood and storyboards sparked an exciting flow of ideas which were then streamlined by her knowledgeable direction. Any prior hesitations or anxieties I had about getting behind the camera evaporated as soon as we got going! Her infectious, encouraging and warm energy quickly helped me feel very relaxed and confident. I couldn’t have asked for a better partner to help bring my thoughts and ideas to life. Thank you so much Susanna!”

    SOPHIE DEAKIN, DOWN WITH DEAKS

  • “Susanna charmingly conveyed in 38 minutes a lifetime of achievement, ambition, fun and the love of our parents whilst making the creative process seem easy. A genuine triumph, a real pleasure and a fine legacy.”
