Welcome to the award-winning photos of

 Susan Puder

Passion. Vision. Protection. Beauty. Environment.

To some, these are just words. To me, they define what motivates my photography.

Passionate about photography—to capture a landscape or wildlife brings immense pleasure.

Vision—to look at something like you’re seeing it for the first time brings constant surprises.

Protection of our environment is of utmost importance to me.

The Beauty of wild things always makes my heart sing.

Capturing the essence of the place in my images helps me to share what I experienced and hope that some of the spirit is conveyed to you, the viewer. Perhaps, you will gain a new way of seeing what remains of our nation’s unspoiled areas. The danger to our environment, especially in the West, cannot be underestimated. I hope you will come away from my photos with the sense of not only how beautiful and fragile our country’s wild places are, but also how important the need is to preserve and protect our natural areas before it’s too late.

Now you can view and purchase my photographic work, which The Star Ledger (one of New Jersey’s largest newspapers) reviewed as “exhibits a splendid eye for color and the ability to present a neat, uncluttered image.”
