Artists of the Month
(August)
anNIE SUTER
Annie’s love for photography began almost at birth. Raised by a professional photographer, she grew up surrounded by cameras, images, and the art of capturing meaningful moments. She took her first photograph at just three and a half years old—an image of her parents sitting on a bench at the St. Louis Botanical Garden, a place that remains a lasting source of inspiration and helped shape her love for nature photography.
Her journey expanded on her 15th birthday, when her father gifted her first DSLR camera and passed down the professional gear that helped shape his own work. From photographing her younger cousins’ sports games to creating portraits for friends, families, birthdays, and special occasions, Annie discovered a passion for telling stories through her lens. In her upcoming solo art exhibit, she invites viewers to experience the world as she sees it—full of color, connection, memory, and wonder.
Annie's photography will be displayed in Scott Hall August 3- August 31.
Her photos will also be for sale! Visit the rising thought bookstore to purchase.
Opening Reception
On Sunday, August 9, the CSL Art Committee welcomed the community into Scott Hall for an inspiring Artist of the Month reception honoring Annie Suter and her photography exhibit, Nature by Design. Annie shared the story of a creative life shaped by family, memory, and a deep love of seeing the world through a camera lens. Raised by professional photographers, she grew up surrounded by images and the quiet magic of capturing meaningful moments; her own journey began early, with nature becoming one of her lasting sources of inspiration. Through color, connection, and wonder, Annie’s photographs invite viewers to pause, look more closely, and discover beauty in the details around them. Her exhibit will be on display in Scott Hall throughout August, filling the space with visual stories that reflect both her personal history and her generous way of seeing.
