This week we chat with Susan Brinson from House of Brinson/Studio Brinson. Susan has really made it her mission to slow down and find beauty in the everyday moments. She talks about how the simple act of taking more time with something, can make it feel like a luxury (an idea I’m sure we can all get behind nowadays).

Susan is the perfect combination of formally educated and self taught. After 12 years in the advertising industry as design director Susan started photographing with her husband Will behind the scenes for their blog. In 2014, they ditched convention and began directing and photographing together commercially. Different approaches create a unique shared vision.

Susan shares about their life-changing choice to leave New York City and move to the Hudson Valley, the on-going renovation project of their dilapidated mansion - Stony Ford, and how she balances her commercial work with the demands of renovating and sharing their home in front of an audience.
