Erin is a gifted photographer, and very easy to work with. She did promotional photos for my nonprofit website and promotional materials, and I love them! Highly recommend!

Erin is wonderful! She was open to any ideas I had for photos but also helped by giving pose advice and such when I was lacking :) She's super fun to work with! Thanks Erin!!

Erin did a great job photographing our family. Even with two wiggly boys she was able to catch their attention and capture some good smiles. When the weather was less than cooperative she had a great back up plan and the pictures turned out wonderful! It was such an enjoyable experience working with Erin! More...

She was so much fun to work with! I feel so awkward feeling photographed but she did an excellent job of making me feel comfortable and I had a blast. She was also so fast at getting me the edited photos! More...

Erin was awesome. She took the time out of her day to not only take our photos, but have fun with us while doing so. I would highly recommend her to anyone! 10/10

Erin did some great outdoor action shots for my fitness class and they turned out AMAZING! She is responsive, professional, and easy to work with. She catches the vision quickly and totally delivers. I definitely recommend Erin! More...

Erin's talents are endless, and she is so patient and works so well with little kids as she has 2, soon to be 3 of her own! She knows just how to capture them at the right moments, and understands that you may have to switch things up a bit to accommodate their needs. I am grateful and blessed to be able to call her my friend, and love that she has such a big heart and knows how to capture these oh so precious moments. More...

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
I think the secret to taking a great photograph is making the client comfortable.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
I would ask the client about their vision for the project; what's the end result they are looking for? I would ask about the style of photo they are inspired by, and get to know their personality a little bit so I can deliver their style.
What do you love most about your job?
What I love most about my job is getting to capture people and places through my lens. I get to see ordinary things in a unique way and create.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was inspired to start my own business because it's something I love doing, but also as a mother of three and the wife of a student I get to choose my own schedule. Photography also encourages me to keep learning and lets me be creative.
Why should our clients choose you?
Clients should choose me because I will absolutely help bring their vision to life. I'll also show up on time and do a great job.
