Introduction
I'm a Northern Virginia lifestyle family & newborn photographer with over 8 years of experience. My goal is for photo sessions to feel relaxed and laid-back like I'm just a family friend with a camera. I would describe my photographic style as true-to-life, vibrants and candid-focused. During your session, I provide direction and posing help to make sure I get a mix of traditional/posed shots and candid ones. The candids are always my favorite though :)

We had a great time doing our maternity shoot with Erin! She immediately made us so comfortable and was great with direction which we appreciated! Planning to work with her again in the future!

Erin was fantastic to work with, every step of the way! She was prompt with responses, excellent at communicating, willing to work with us despite very complicated schedules and specific requests for the photoshoot, and above all, the quality of the end product was outstanding, surpassing all of our expectations. She is friendly, helpful, and a phenomenal photographer. We are absolutely thrilled with the photos we received, will treasure them forever, and Erin made the entire experience easy for us. I would highly highly recommend Erin for any photography needs!

Erin did a phenomenal job on my maternity shoot with my husband and I. I’m not one to take photos of myself (or have photos taken of me), but Erin managed to make me feel very comfortable during the shoot. I wanted to capture my first pregnancy in a special way and have photos that I can look back on forever. Erin is professional and her work exudes quality and timelessness. I highly recommend her and I would hire her again if I ever need a photographer.

Details: Maternity portrait • Natural / environmental (photographed in an outdoor setting) • Candid (captured in the moment) • Outdoors • Digital or online download • Physical proofs and prints • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

Erin was so fun during this shoot! It was really cool to be able to combine my family business with my grad photos and Erin even took some marketing style photos of some of our products while I was changing outfits that are great! I never even asked her to do that!

It was such a nice experience working with Erin. From planning the maternity shoot, discussing locations and poses and ideas, she was flexible and open minded. The photos came out great. I will definitely consider booking her for future events.

FAQs

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    My biggest piece of advice is to look through a photographer's portfolio before hiring and make sure that the type of shots and poses, the visual style and the overall vibe matches what you are looking for.
