Capturing Moments, Creating Memories - Your Photographer

With 3 young children, Erin made our session feel effortless and so enjoyable! She not only took incredible posed photos, but sweet candid ones as well! You won’t find a more devoted and sweet person to capture your memories!

Gabby & Marco

I couldn’t have been happier with my photos if any one else took them. Erin was wonderful! So professional, kind, and creative. She went along with all of my ideas and had so many great ideas of her own. Erin made the day magical for me and made me feel so beautiful. The photos are memories that will last a lifetime. I would recommend her 1000 times over.

Tristin Staszak

Erin has taken our company’s production photos for the last three productions and she always gets fantastic shots for us to use for promotional purposes. She brings a great eye for theater and a kind approach to everything and we really appreciate her and her work!

Pedro Amaral

Erin is extremely professional and efficient. Before the shoot she comes with a plan already mapped out to make the most out of your time. She is patient and kind. Highly recommend and will continue to use her.

Tiara & Jon Ross

Erin captured our wedding day perfectly. We are so pleased with how our photos turned out.
She was responsive and professional throughout the entire process. She checked in with us in the months and weeks leading up to the wedding to ensure the timeline was perfect.
She made us feel so comfortable which reflects in the finished photos.

Briana Heimark Jones

My husband and I are not picture people. We don't remember to take them, and the task of posing for long shoots feels like an exhausting task. This doesn't happen when we work with Erin. She makes these sessions so painless, easy, and fun! We know that she will get amazing shots in a matter of minutes (before either of us turns into a pumpkin) and the results will be stunning. She's done our engagement, wedding, and now our maternity photos and we couldn't be happier with them. Working with Erin gives us such peace of mind knowing we'll be able to capture these special moments with total confidence and zero stress. ❤
