About this vendor
Making my couples happy & spreading more joy in the world is why I'm in love with being a wedding photographer :). Even after all this time, getting to know my couples - seeing their beautiful uniqueness & all the things that make them cool, quirky, warm-hearted, awesome people in order to bring it out in their wedding story - keeps everything exciting and wonderfully amazing!
It's super important for me to get to know the needs and personalities of my couples in addition to their photographic wishes, just so we can truly create photos that speak to them and tell their unique stories. Authenticity is extremely important to me (as well as making sure everyone feels relaxed and has a really fun time while we are shooting!) ~ to me these are also integral parts of my photographic style :).

There aren't enough words to explain how amazing Erin is! Not just as a photographer but as a person, it was an amazing experience working with her from the first consultation meet...
ing to our engagement session to the wedding day itself! We really wanted to find someone who could capture us as a couple, and not just the same generic wedding photos and poses you see these days, and Erin completely blew us away. Everyone who has seen our wedding photos has commented on how she captured our personalities. Going through the photos now, they take me right back to the day and I get butterflies all over again, that’s how perfectly she captured each moment. I can’t say enough about how lovely Erin is as well—she has such a sweet, warm, funny demeanor and made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera (which is really saying something because my husband and I are so awkward). I can’t get over how great this experience was, how breathtaking the photos are, and how wonderful it was to have someone as lovely as Erin with us on our big day!
Erin is the best! We hired Erin for our wedding and we could not have been happier with her service and photos. Erin listened to all my requests and even offered to visit the venue...
with me for scouting. The day of the wedding went very smooth and we had full confidence that our memories were in good hands. When the photos arrived, we were brought to tears with how beautifully they came out. She provided a large collection of high quality photos that were professionally edited. As an artist myself my standards were very high and Erin exceeded my expectations! I could not recommend her more.
My husband and I had the pleasure of having Erin as our wedding photographer for our May 2024 wedding and we couldn't recommend her enough!
Erin was incredibly detailed and thoro...
ugh during the planning process, and helped guide us step by step to ensure she had the timeline and shot list so that she could work her magic on the big day. While visiting the venue with us prior to our wedding date, she was incredibly mindful of all the aspects that help us capture the best possible photos. She even visited once more on her own to confirm the lighting at the exact time of our wedding!
On the wedding day itself, Erin was very prepared and leveraged the timeline and shot list to make the most of her time with us. She did an excellent job of managing the timeline while ensuring that as a couple we had the freedom to experience the day as we most liked without feeling restricted. Like most brides, I was a bundle of nerves on my wedding day, but I definitely feel like having Erin accompanying us and guiding us throughout the photography really helped me feel at ease and honestly made my wedding day even better. We had multiple guests comment at how organized and pleasant she was to work with. She has an incredibly comforting presence :)
We worked with both her and her teammate Adam on the day of the wedding to ensure we could get plenty of photos of both the groomsmen and the bridesmaids. Adam was such a pleasure to work with as well! He put in so much effort to get us the best possible shots and I can't say enough how much I appreciate his hard work tossing my veil up and then hearing his footsteps as he ran out of the shot, so he could act as the "wind" in my veil for our various shots!
We received an incredibly comprehensive first look of photos about a month after, then received our full gallery 4 months later. It's a bit hard to explain but she did an amazing job at really capturing the energy of the day and the heartfelt emotions that my husband and I experienced throughout the day. The photos feel incredibly natural and vivid. The wedding day goes by in what feels like an instant and I'm so grateful to have such a wonderful set of wedding photos to treasure for the rest of my life.
We had the pleasure of working with Erin for our engagement pictures and wedding in 2022. We couldn't have made a better choice - Erin was amazing! Not only were her pictures stunn...
ing and beautiful, her process of helping organize the day and brainstorm shots and ideas was incredibly helpful. The characteristic that stick out to me about Erin was her energy. She was always positive and simply fun! My guests were even raving about Erin!
Can't wait to have her shoot more family events soon!
We could not speak more highly of our experience booking Erin as our wedding photographer - we are absolutely thrilled to have had the chance to work with her! Throughout the entir...
e process, Erin was incredibly kind, easy to work with, and flexible - she truly went above and beyond to make sure our wedding photos turned out perfectly. She also did an amazing job making sure everyone was comfortable and that we got all the photos we needed - everyone in the wedding party reached out saying how delightful she was to work with! We could not be more happy with the results - she truly captured every moment stunningly (even throughout on/off rain!) We strongly recommend Erin for any/all photography needs - booking her was the best decision we made throughout the planning process! Thank you again, Erin - we are so grateful!!
My wife and I had the honor of hiring Erin to be our trusted photographer for our wedding in September of 2023. She is first and foremost a genuinely kind, upbeat and extremely fl...
exible person to work with. Our wedding venue was unconventional, as was our ceremony and reception and the lighting was less than ideal, however, this was not an obstacle for Erin. One of her greatest professional qualities as a photographer is her ability to capture the essence and emotion of each special moment. The final photos that we received from Erin are simply stunning. The colors and lighting that Erin was able to capture are so vivid and quite honestly belong in a top magazine layout. Mostly, we truly enjoyed working with Erin; she was not just another vendor at our wedding but rather she felt more like one of our beloved and cherished guests. We highly recommend Erin for any occasion; her expertise in photography combined with her delightful personal qualities make her the perfect package. Thank you, Erin, from the bottom of our hearts for memorializing the biggest day of our lives with so much love and care.
With love and appreciation,
Lori and Mary Ann Abosch
Erin has an amazing ability to capture emotion in moments no one else can. The candids are phenomenal and we will treasure them dearly. She and her team are unobtrusive and so pr...
ofessional never missing a beat. The coordinated efforts with the wedding planner made the day stress free and flawless! Thank you for making our day so special and memorable!!!
Erin is a wonderful photographer! Not only are her photos amazing, she is also an incredible person who truly cares about making people happy. She is super friendly and responsive,...
and she was so helpful throughout the entire process from our initial meeting to planning and scouting locations to the beautiful photos we received. Erin is such a joy to work with, and we absolutely recommend her!
Erin was such a pleasure to work with! She had so many ideas, and as an awkward couple, it really helped us ease the process. It was really nice to get to meet her first in-person ...
to discuss what we were looking for, and whether she was the right fit for us. She worked with our budget and expectations, and the photos turned out amazing! Such a lovely and friendly person, even our family really liked working with her! <3
Erin was so detail oriented and helped out a lot with thinking through what photos we wanted. She is also literally the sweetest person ever. Having her there on our wedding day ...
was so nice since she has such a calming aura.
I would hire Erin over and over and over again for anything I would want professionally photographed! Erin shot both our engagement and wedding photos, and not only was the quality...
of the photos amazing, she took so much extra time and care to make sure they turned out just as we had envisioned! She is so sweet, professional and fun to work with! She went above and beyond for us, especially because we do not live in California and had to plan everything from afar. Erin scoped out multiple places for our engagement and weddings photos, gave honest and professional feedback and found the most amazing places to take photos! She even found a specific TREE I had seen in pictures in the area but didn't know the location, I was absolutely amazed, she made us feel so special and truly wanted to bring our visions to life :) Her responses were always quick and she was always very organized and took away so much of my stress about getting all the photos we wanted. She worked so well with everyone on the day of the wedding and we have since gotten so many compliments from family and friends about the amazing job she did. We are so beyond thankful for her work and dedication. Any couple would be lucky to have her by their side for their special day! Thank you for everything Erin!!
My husband and I fell in love with Erin's photos on her webpage; her aesthetic is exactly what we wanted for our wedding. Erin is so professional and does absolutely beautiful wor...
k but is also so warm, caring and positive. Erin truly wants what is best for the bride and groom; she scheduled a day for the three of us to tour the venue together! She did this so she knew ahead of time where the best shots would be taken and at what times would be best. She is highly detailed and thinks of every possible shot and wants feedback from the bride and groom in terms of what will make their wedding photos special and personalized. It is so rare to find a vendor that truly has the best interest of the bride and groom in mind. We are so incredibly happy with the photos that Erin took at our wedding. They are so beautiful that our friends and family literally gasped when they saw them!
Erin was incredibly sweet and she and her second photographer did such a great job for our traditional Chinese team ceremony/Chinese restaurant reception! She was so gentle and yet...
so effective at maneuvering my large extended family for family photos, and never forgot about all the portions that we wanted captured throughout the day, because I definitely would have forgotten myself! The access to the photos afterwards via Google photos was also such a blessing - not to mention her rates were so reasonable for such a long day (we needed her for 12 hours)!
Erin Shimazu has been such a joy to work with! Her photos for my wedding came out breathtakingly beautiful. I can't express this enough--having her as a photographer was one of the...
best wedding decisions I made. Her attention to detail is stupendous--and she is so kind and responsive. To be honest, I was probably the one who was harder to work with because she had to remind me of my own photo/planning to do list so many times, but she was always so accommodating. When we met before the wedding, she made me feel comfortable and helped make the photography go seamlessly on our wedding day at The California Club. There was a moment when I wasn't sure I wanted to spend the time taking a picture I had requested due to timing, and she reminded me how important it was to me, led my husband and I to the photo, and it really ended up being one of favorites.
It was such a pleasure to work with Erin these past few years! We actually hired her in 2019 for our 2020 wedding, but of course, COVID-19 happened and we were forced to postpone. ...
We were so fortunate to have her photograph our courthouse wedding in June of 2020 (distanced, of course)! And when we finally set a date on our postponement, we did 2 engagement shoots in early 2022. The day of our wedding itself, everything went smoothly. As a couple, we didn't really have a huge vision on what we wanted, but we gave Erin a general guideline on what shots we wanted and how we wanted the day to go. For us, it was mainly, "Please tell us exactly what to do because we both feel awkward posing for shots!" When we got our final shots, I was pleased to see some shots that we didn't even ask for, but was happy that Erin thought to do those shots (like posing our rings with our Pokemon stuffed animals!) Through all our photo sessions with Erin, we were both really happy with working with her. My advice to any prospective people reading this: Discuss your expectations with your photographer thoroughly, and you will walk away happy. Thanks so much, Erin!
Erin is truly amazing she captured every moment of our special day. She even worked with us before our wedding to learn about our vision and truly understand our needs. She is a pl...
easure to work with. I highly recommend her you will not be disappointed.
We are so grateful to have had Erin as our wedding photographer! From the moment we met Erin, we were captivated by her enthusiasm and warmth. I cannot imagine working with anyon...
e with a brighter personality and a more genuine care for spreading joy through photography. She went above and beyond to give us our dream wedding photos, from meeting with us before the wedding several times to patiently making sure we got every shot we wished for and more on our wedding day. Her kind, calm, gentle spirit helped us feel at ease so that we could fully enjoy the day, which is such a gift. We are thrilled with how the photos turned out - it’s hard to narrow it down to just a few favorites! Erin captured the joy and love of our wedding day beautifully, and we happily recommend her!
Erin is sunshine in human form; I simply cannot recommend her enough.
My husband and I worked with her to take four sets of photos: 1) a black & white indoor maternity shoot, 2)...
a park maternity shoot, 3) a lakeside maternity shoot with our dogs and 4) a golden hour beach maternity shoot.
The photos that Erin captured and edited for us were absolutely gorgeous. I’ve been looking at them non-stop since we received them.
If you’re looking for a talented, kind, highly organized, and detail-oriented photographer that charges extremely fair prices—look no further!
Erin was an absolute highlight of our wedding journey. She is an incredibly talented photographer and her work continuously brought tears to our eyes. She perfectly captured the em...
otions of our events. We worked with Erin for 3 shoots - engagement photos, small COVID ceremony, and our actual wedding. For each, she diligently worked with us on the shot list and went above and beyond for our wedding day timeline - meeting with me multiple times to make sure everything was perfect. Her calm demeanor helped keep me grounded throughout a very stressful day and I will always be grateful for her. I cannot recommend Erin highly enough, and can't wait to work with her again in the future for our next family event :)
From our first meeting to our big day, Erin was fun, helpful and professional. She listened to what we wanted and was able to capture the love and fun that surrounded us at our we...
dding. We were very happy with her photos. She captured the candid moments perfectly and the formal shots were so beautiful.
Erin is such an amazing nature photographer in SoCal. We had engagement photos done with her and the pictures turned out AMAZING! We've been parents for 3 years, the photos made us...
look like we never had kids and were still in our puppy love stage. We wished that she could be our wedding photographer, but due to COVID, she couldn't travel to the state that we got married at. So glad that we found her! We will definitely save her contact if we ever wanted to do anymore nature photo session in California.
Erin was truly amazing. She had the photo itinerary down to a "t." In fact, she was so prepared we even got time to mingle with our wedding guests at the cocktail hour, rather than...
continue taking photos. She also did our engagement photos which turned out amazing.
It was amazing to work with Erin! We're not a couple who are particularly comfortable in front of the camera, but she made us both feel at ease. She was prompt in her communication...
and replies, which helped relieve some stress during planning. When we first spoke with her, we clicked right away and that made bouncing ideas for our engagement shoot really easy. She was very understanding and we felt like collaborators. On the day of, she was able to quickly adapt to our crazy schedule and we appreciated her calm demeanor. It helped to put us at ease as well. Lastly, her photographic style is what drew us to her in the first lace and what she captured was awesome. The end result is better than we could have imagined and we were super glad to have worked with Erin.
I LOVE ERIN!!❤️❤️❤️ She was my photographer for my Anniversary Party (1 year after my CoVid Wedding) and she was VERY helpful every step of the way, making sure I was comfortable ...
and clear on what I wanted to capture.
She was more than I could ask for, I could go on forever about how great she is!! If you want a photographer, you don’t need to look any further. I cannot wait to work with her again for other milestone events.❤️❤️❤️
When I got started planning our engagement party, I knew I wanted a photographer that would not only be comfortable with an Indian event, but who I could have a good dialogue with....
Erin is very sweet and calm natured, and immediately made me feel comfortable--especially since I usually don't like seeing myself in pictures. She was very receptive to ideas from both my fiancé and myself, and was very communicative leading up to the party. To say that these pictures are gorgeous would be an understatement! She made all of our dreams come true, and truly captured the essence and color of our party. We are completely overwhelmed by her talent and her keen eye. Thank you so much for capturing these special moments!
We hired Erin after seeing how great she was at my sister-inlaws wedding. Her photos are so beautiful, and she is so skilled & talented, but what sets her apart from everyone else...
is how personable and interpersonal she is. I have ZERO photo-taking experience, so I really appreciated how she guided me and made me feel so comfortable through the whole experience. She is so professional in every way possible. I had a load of Pinterest group photo ideas, and we were able to execute them all. It was amazing working with Erin, and honestly, I don't see myself working with anyone else but her for our future family photo sessions. Thank you, Erin, for the most beautiful wedding photos. You made our dream come true <3
Erin was absolutely amazing. She was easy and fun to work with, and was 100% into our nerdy Star Wars themed wedding. Pictures were one of the things I was most excited about for o...
ur wedding and Erin delivered. The end result was even more than I could have asked for!
Disclaimer: We are habitual procrastinators and this review is long overdue. It's also a bit long.
We found Erin after a long search through many different photographers. Her onl...
ine portfolio was impressive, so we put her on the list for interviews. What we didn’t know just by looking at her online portfolio was just how fun, creative, and personable she was! That personality came through over the phone and after our interview, we were convinced she was the perfect fit for our big day. Although we had never met before, she made us feel like friends just catching up after not seeing each other after a long time, everything was easy and comfortable.
Erin was very prepared and on top of things, she asked for our shot list in advance and gave us examples so we’d know what to ask for. We were all ready to go, then COVID hit and derailed our original wedding plans. The plans were paused, then modified, then good to go. Through all the complications, Erin was responsive and flexible. She continuously reassured us, that this was OUR big day, and she would be there for us in any way we needed her. It was so reassuring during such an unknown time.
On our wedding day, Erin had a printed list of all the critical shots, making sure that she didn’t miss a single one of our requested shots. She also improvised and asked us to do other poses and combinations that turned out great and we didn’t even think of.
Erin did just the right amount of coaching to make sure everyone in the shots looked their best. She also did a great job capturing some of the best candid moments of the day. She managed to be in many places without us feeling like she was stepping into our space or interfering with the day.
For our “golden hour” photos, she had an assistant (her husband!) come and hold a reflector to ensure we were properly lit, and the photos came out looking so perfect! We are so in love with the finished product.
We highly recommend having Erin as your photographer. We liked her so much that we recommended her to our brother and she shot his wedding too. Even with a repeat performance, her professionalism and end product did not disappoint! She will now be our official family photographer for anything that we want to have memorialized. Most recently, she’s shot our sister’s maternity photos, and for a third time, she did not disappoint.
TLDR: Erin is amazing! We highly recommend! Thanks for everything, Erin
Cannot recommend Erin enough! She shot our engagement photos, and they came out gorgeous; we've gotten so many compliments already from friends and family! Erin was reasonably pric...
ed, was quick to respond to all our emails, was a joy to work with, and accommodated all of our needs. She traveled to two different locations for us, waited patiently during two outfit changes, and touched up all the photos we requested for an extra pop of color. We had so much fun running around LA with Erin and will definitely be calling her to photograph future life events!
Although this isn't for a wedding, Erin did my husband and I's maternity shoot. Erin is very talented and has a wonderful artistic eye. She was very accommodating to our style and ...
desires and went above and beyond to achieve them. In addition to lovely photos, I do want to note that Erin herself is amazing. She definitely put us at ease and made us feel comfortable. Thank you, Erin!
My husband and I cannot even begin to express how happy and lucky we were to have Erin as our photographer for both our engagement and wedding photos. She is a phenomenally talente...
d photographer, an absolute professional, a great communicator, is all-around fun to be around, and was wonderfully flexible with our schedule and made us feel so comfortable and relaxed at all times.
On the wedding day, Erin was beyond prepared with her schedule and shot list, and worked seamlessly with all of our vendors. She even came to the hotel early to do extra detail shots that were simply amazing. Erin also has an amazing power -- she is such a calming presence yet also knows how to keep everyone on schedule! The fact that she was able to round up both of our extended families after the ceremony for photos, all in time for our golden hour shots, was just amazing! Adam, Erin’s second shooter, is also such a warm and friendly spirit and a talented photographer. Adam really encouraged my husband and the groomsmen to let their personalities shine which is captured perfectly in the photos. Erin and Adam make an incredible team!
I am beyond grateful for Erin’s reassurance and encouragement throughout the day. I’m usually camera shy, but I was able to completely feel beautiful, confident, and 100% myself -- and all of that showed in the photos! When we saw the wedding photos for the first time, our jaws literally dropped in absolute shock and awe by how beautiful the day was captured. Looking through each photo, we truly felt like we were reliving the wedding day moment by moment. We are forever grateful to Erin, and also to Adam, for supporting us on our wedding day and giving us the ability to relive that beautiful day over and over again.
I firmly believe that finding the right photographer who you absolutely trust and have a connection with makes all the difference for a wedding -- and we couldn't be happier with our choice. We’re so grateful to have a long-lasting relationship with Erin and are looking forward to ordering prints and creating an album. We 100% recommend her for your wedding!
Amazing, wonderful, awesome, there aren't enough adjectives to describe Erin.
She went above and beyond for us since our first consultation and is just an absolute joy to work wit...
h.
She captured our personalities perfectly through her photography and we're still getting comments on how perfect the photos came out.
We simply cannot recommend her as your wedding photographer - you will not regret it.
Second thoughts about hiring Erin as your photographer?
Let me tell you a story - about 2 months before our wedding while we were scouting the venue, Erin sat us down to tell us that she needed to undergo surgery. At this point, we considered Erin a friend rather than our wedding photographer and we were so worried for her. We would have gladly found another photographer and wouldn't have even asked for our initial deposit back, but before we could even address anything, with a warm smile, Erintold us not to worry that she had everything planned out and still had every intention of shooting our wedding, but asked if she could bring along some help.
Nevermind that she was undergoing surgery - she asked us if we were okay and apologized for having to undergo surgery. That's Erin in a nutshell - even when there's a pressing medical issue at hand, she puts you first.
We're so so so grateful to have had Erin as our wedding photographer and we can't thank her enough for all she's done. If you're still reading this, do yourself a favor and hire her already.
Punctuality, professionalism, personality and price A++
I had no leads on who to use and so I went to theknot.com where I found Erin. After reviewing her website "Erin Shimazu Ph...
otography," I could see she was a spirited, passionate and cared about her work the way real professionals are focused on their art. This is what I wanted for my wedding, one of the most important memories of my life. Erin was everything she appeared to be and my husband and I immediately bonded with her and her crew. It was perfect! I would choose her again for any future events.
Highly recommended without restrictions.
If you are on the fence about Erin, do not hesitate and work with her. You will not regret it! Erin is super sweet and patient. I was totally lost on the entire process but she too...
k the time to work with me and made sure I was happy with the location and planning. She went above and beyond to help with ideas and recommendations. She even drove out to our location to help plan the special day. I would recommend her 10/10 to anyone that is looking for both quality and professionalism.
Erin is amazing to work with. She is so kind and makes the whole experience fun. You can tell that she really cares about her clients. Our engagement photos were absolutely stun...
ning.
Erin was the photographer for our wedding, and she was professional and a joy to work with from the very first contact to the easy viewing and downloading of our pictures from her ...
website. She listened carefully to all our requests and concerns, and honored all our requests. And of course, the pictures she and her associate took are all gorgeous. We had our wedding reception at the Aquarium of the Pacific, which is beautiful but of course has its own challenges in lighting, etc. We ended up not taking wedding party pictures where we originally planned, but improvised them at a different spot, and they ended up being my favorite photos from the event! Erin was actually a recommendation from friends from their wedding, and we happily recommend her to any of our friends and others getting married!
Simply Amazing and Beautiful Work!
We completely recommend Erin as a wedding photographer or just generally for any photography you may need! Erin and her team did an amazing job ...
with our wedding, working so well along with our other vendors, and being responsive and involved the entire way until our wedding day and after! Erin truly understood us as a couple and our wedding vision, and she made sure to capture every single special moment, especially the little moments we would want to remember for the rest of our lives, with such wonderful timing to capture our true essence. The pictures came out absolutely beautifully and we highly recommend her for your wedding! She is completely amazing as a photographer and just a wonderful and overall friendly person! Her photography skills are simply amazing, she captured the beautiful cherry blossom season, its delicate but vibrant color and all of the small but special touches we had in our wedding, and knew how to get us back to our comfort zone when we ever strayed into our awkwardness (which we are very aware of lol). Everything was absolutely beautiful and we highly recommend her! Thank you Erin for our amazing and beautiful wedding photographs, we absolutely love them!
Erin was absolutely wonderful! First, her photos are stunning. She can capture such a spectrum of emotion from a couple fully relaxed, to in stitches with laughter, to moving and d...
ramatic. She helped us to feel ourselves, both at are most confident and vulnerable. She is super conscientious--in how she approaches photography and her relationships with her clients. Erin listened for the special moments and roles of our guests in our lives, and photographed them accordingly--making them especially heartwarming too. She shot details beautifully, from my jewelry to the accents and architectural details of our venue. In spite of my too-big nose, I fell for her profile photos, which were ultimately among my many favorites of us.
Erin's kind and gentle demeanor helped us to relax, put us and our families at ease , even being a refuge when moments of stress came up. The way she laughed and spoke with us made us feel like we'd known her forever and ultimately gained a new friend. She was generous with her time to ensure she understood what we wanted from our wedding photos, the details that were unique and special to us, like capturing an inside joke. Erin's warmth and positive personality just puts a smile on your face. She asked us questions along the way and always answered ours promptly and thoroughly. Her second shooter for our wedding, Adam, was also really great. He echoed her calmness, ease, attention to detail and ability to capture photography rich with light and emotion--whether in an expression or an elegant cocktail.
Thank you so so much. We would choose you again in a heartbeat and couldn't recommend you more. All the best. C & A
I cannot recommend Erin enough!! She is an absolutely amazing photographer. My husband and I knew the moment we met Erin that we wanted to work with her. She has an amazing persona...
lity and is beyond kind!! She was quick to respond to our emails and questions.
Our engagement and wedding photos are amazing!! My husband and I both cried after seeing them. She was able to capture our personalities in our photos.
She took the time to walk the venue with us and give her opinion on what areas would give us the best photos. She was knowledgeable about picking out spots with the best lighting.
Erin is AMAZING!! Absolutely would recommend!!!
Erin was the perfect photographer for our wedding! From the beginning, Erin was super easy to work with and made sure she really understood our aesthetic and shot list. She even s...
couted the venue before our wedding to find all of the spots with the best lighting and scenery.
On the day of the wedding, Erin was super organized and made sure we got all of the photos we wanted without disrupting the flow of the wedding - I couldn't have been happier with how everything flowed on my wedding day, and with how the photos turned out! Erin is a true professional and is also such a sweetheart. I'm so glad I chose her as my photographer!

he most important days of our lives. She was a pro. I didn’t have to worry about anything. She knew beforehand the shots I wanted and did them so beautifully. I definitely would recommend her. And we were so happy once we got the photos. Thank you Erin!
Having Erin as our photographer for our wedding day was an absolute pleasure! After communicating with multiple photographers, there was just something about Erin where we instanta...
neously knew that she was the photographer for us! She made the process so easy that we had everything in place to book her for her services within 2 days! In preparation, she had suggested that we meet prior to the wedding to scout the venue in order to get a better idea of the type of photos we wanted and to provide her creative input as well. Her willingness to meet with us and to also answer any questions we might have had was so helpful in calming our nerves as this was our first professional photoshoot and we definitely didn’t want any of that to show in our pictures. Come the day of our wedding, Erin did exactly that! She made us feel so comfortable and relaxed that no nerves were in sight! Our photos taken after our wedding ceremony throughout the venue was so seamless and enjoyable. When we received our photos, the quality of work was beyond our expectations and every single one was amazing. She was able to capture every special moment that we can relive and cherish for the rest of our lives. Her professionalism, flexibility for last minute changes, and responsiveness during the entire process prior to and on our wedding day made it one of the best experiences and we’re so grateful to have shared this with her.

ye for beautiful lighting and natural beauty to photograph in. Our photographs all came out AMAZING. I would recommend Erin as highly as I can!
Words cannot explain how amazing Erin and her work are! Erin took the photos for our other friend’s wedding last year and she was highly recommended. When we first met her, it alre...
ady felt like we were friends. She showed up with a portfolio and we were instantly impressed. Her prices were great and coordinating timelines with her was so easy!
My husband and I were beaming and so excited that we couldn’t sleep when we looked at our wedding photos. Erin captured all the details, vibrant colors, and candid moments without breaking a sweat. She also took our engagement photos (set at an awesome price as well if you book a package with her!) and let me tell you, she works wonders. She shared our same love for the beach and the great outdoors and had awesome venues to suggest. She was thorough in checking the weather and lighting to ensure everything would be captured under optimum conditions. My husband and I had our awkward moments during the shoot, but Erin was able to make the session fun and it definitely showed in her shots.
On the day of the wedding she was very professional and was even kind enough to show up earlier than scheduled to get extra shots in. She scouted the church, hotel and reception venues ahead of time so that she new exactly where and when to take her photos. She fulfilled all of our little requests and captured all aspects that were important to us. Everything went according to schedule without us having to feel the pressure of getting all our photos on our shot list taken. She made sure we were comfortable and made it a priority for us to have fun and enjoy the process! Capturing every moment is such an important aspect of a wedding and we can assure you that Erin will definitely deliver! I can confidently say anyone who has the pleasure of working with Erin will love her as much as we did!
We loved working with Erin so much. She made us feel relaxed and took better pictures than we could have imagined. People have said my pictures look like they should be in a magazi...
ne. She had a very calm and relaxed energy, but at the same time very professional and knew what she was doing. She let us make most decisions and chimed in when we needed her opinion or if she had a helpful suggestion. I would recommend her to anyone!
Erin was referred to me by word of mouth and I highly recommend her as your photographer for any special occasion! From the initial contact, to the engagement shoot, to the wedding...
day, Erin was wonderful throughout it all. She was very responsive to all my emails and requests. She assisted with my timeline, scoped out the venue with me (to plan which spot was good for first look, wedding party and family pictures, etc.), and arrived early on our wedding day just to make sure she captured all the details. Erin is sweet, patient, and accommodating, and she listens and genuinely cares professionally and personally. What I learned from working with Erin is that not only she is brilliant at what she does but her ultimate goal for her clients is to make them happy. We are extremely happy with our engagement and wedding photos and to have the pleasure working with her.
When finding a wedding photographer, my husband and I wanted to find someone who we felt comfortable with and who we appreciated their artistic eye for shots. I had contacted sever...
al photographers prior to Erin but none of their shots really impressed me. When meeting Erin for the first time in person we found she was the perfect fit! We felt immediately comfortable as she had such a sweet spirit, was very flexible, patient with all of our questions and explained her vision and process for photography. She took the time with us to scout out the location prior to both our engagement shoot and wedding day and she was a joy to have around on the day of the wedding. All of our friends and family said how beautiful both our engagement photos and wedding photos turned out! We are so impressed and are having a hard time picking our favorites because they are all so good! Erin is truly an artist and was calm and managed to capture the key shots in the midst of a truly packed wedding day photography schedule. Highly recommend!
Highly recommend! From the very beginning, Erin was beyond amazing! We did our engagement shoot with her about 8 months before our wedding and the shots were beyond amazing! On our...
wedding day, her and her partner Adam were so professional, organized, prepared, and respectful. They got all of the shots we requested and soooo many more. She kept us ahead of schedule as well. We could not be happier that we chose Erin as our wedding photographer. In addition to being an amazingly gifted photographer, Erin is a genuinely nice person and was so amazing to us throughout everything!
We loved working with Erin! She is calm and easy going, which is wonderful on a stressful wedding day. She did a great job making sure we got all the pictures we wanted and that...
we stayed on track with our timeline. She also took amazing pictures! I am generally not photogenic , but our engagement pictures and wedding pictures came out great. She gives helpful directions to get the best angle and lighting for the pictures, and also makes you feel comfortable with the process, so I did not have my usual frozen, deer in the headlights expression in the pictures. We're very happy we chose Erin.
Erin is absolutely amazing. Loved working with her for our engagement and wedding day for many reasons. She is so personable and kind. She really cared about our vision and need...
s. She was always responsive and helpful. I am sure we will utilize her services in the future.
