Welcome to SULAAH
Thank you for stopping by! If you’re new here, welcome — and if you’ve been following my journey, thank you for your support. Exciting updates are always on the way. Feel free to email me if you’d like to join my distribution list as I grow this community step by step.
My name is Sulaah Bien-Aime (she/her), and I am a writer, photographer, filmmaker, and podcaster passionate about creating art that sparks meaningful dialogue. My journey began in Park Slope, Brooklyn, where I first fell in love with black-and-white photography and learned to develop film in a darkroom. Soon after, writing and storytelling became my sanctuary — a way to explore ideas, process life, and connect deeply with others.
In 2008, I turned my creative passions into a profession, working with musicians to help them market their brands. This reignited my love for photography, particularly in fashion. In 2010, after the devastating earthquake in Haiti, I traveled there to work on an unreleased documentary that remains close to my heart. Today, through my podcast and publishing work, I continue to bring stories like this to life in new and powerful ways.
In 2011, I paused my career to embrace motherhood. By 2014, I returned with a renewed vision as a multi-disciplinary creative — expanding as a writer, photographer, filmmaker, and podcaster.
I am the founder and creative director of SULAAH Magazine, an independent publication that merges art, literature, and fashion into bold statements on resilience, identity, and survival. To date, I’ve published four issues: Caribbean Serenade, Diversity, Strength, and most recently Rage — now distributed globally through Zinio. Rage is my most personal issue yet, blending words and imagery into a manifesto of survival and transformation.
My podcast, Fashioned for the Socially Free, extends this vision into sound — a space that tackles social issues, sparks change, and celebrates the independent artist, whether a musician, filmmaker, or creative working to be heard.
Through my creative pursuits, I aim to ignite conversation, share authentic stories, and honor the beauty I see in the world. My greatest joy is connecting with others through art — whether behind a lens, on the page, or through the microphone.
