Susan Evans Photography

Hello there! I'm Susan Evans. In 2021, I decided to leave an executive position and career I’d held for the past 27 ½ years as a founder of the organization.

Susan Evans Photography – (formerly The Daily Artisan) – posts wildlife and nature photographs that focus on intentional observation, wild movement, quiet encounters, and wild light. With no concrete plans other than a sense I’d probably start a consulting business for crisis and executive communications given my background, I decided to first take a few months without deciding for certain just what I would do next. I would let each day unfold with the unusual opportunity to wake up and decide what I wanted to do with my next 24 hours! Each day I found myself choosing to do one of the fulfilling and creative pursuits that for my entire adult life have been marginally squeezed in where precious time away from my career would allow. Photography and baking and writing and drawing and reading and painting came to the forefront, and my days now are devoted to these things that are filling my life with beauty and creativity. Who would have guessed that the most uncertain (career-wise) time of my life could feel more certain and engaged than ever before? I have found myself using my hands and heart to regularly create in a way that never seemed to find enough time before. Soon I realized I couldn’t go back to sidelining what matters most to me, and thus the idea of The Daily Artisan came to be as a gathering space to share things that bring me to this centered place, and to encourage and inspire others to find those things that can do the same for them in making a more creative life. Recently I read a quote from American music composer Truman Fisher that goes like this: “The pause is as important as the note.” Well, I don’t think this for me is a pause because it surely feels like the note! The Daily Artisan is a posting of my photographs of wildlife, flowers, food, events and more! You also can check out the photographs on my Instagram account . Let’s be creative!

"Brunch Bite"

The first couple of hours this morning were a bit slow in the bird department.
Turns out I had a 12-minute adrenaline rush in the works to start at 9:06 a.m.!

The third issue of (monthly) DISPATCH for my Naturally Wild website is available! You may recognize this osprey “cover model” from a photo I took and named "Trolling."

The Dispatch series arrives (free) to subscribers as an email – which includes photography and narrative content, as well as a direct link to the expanded version on the Naturally Wild website. The email starts with a personal letter from me, discussing what’s going on out in my wild world!

There are new photographs and stories, as well as Dispatch regular features such as “Did You Know?,” “In My Camera Bag,” “From the Print Store,” and “Monthly Tracking” of birds and wildlife photographed.

Not everything in Dispatch's emailed newsletter is in the expanded version on the website, and vice versa. Subscribing to the emailed newsletter for Dispatch will give you access to both!

Subscription to Dispatch is quick and easy! See the Naturally Wild/Susan Evans Photography website link in my Facebook bio, and visit the Contact webpage to subscribe. Or just send an email to [email protected] (or message me on Facebook or Instagram) with your email address, and I’ll add you to the list.

I also would be grateful if you can share this with your friends and family who enjoy wildlife and nature. Growing a subscriber list (even when I send emails only once a month, and don’t crowd people’s inbox) is challenging, so I would appreciate any outreach assistance you can provide.

Thanks, and I hope you enjoy No. 3 Dispatch! ♥️Susan
