I met Lisa and Scott at Pineland Farms on a beautiful October afternoon. The were up from

Boston visiting family and had

scheduled an engagement session with me. I had recommended Pineland for the shoot and found out later their were briefly considering it for their wedding this summer. Lisa was absolutely stunning, at times I felt like I was shooting a movie star straight out of 1950’s Hollywood. Her Fiancé, Scott, was so wonderful. I know how awkward it can be for some, but Scott was a real trooper the entire afternoon. Lisa is having a silk-screening artist design invitations and custom postage from one of the photographs. What a great idea! I love it, especially because the designer is a

fellow Etsy artisan! I am really looking forward to seeing these two again at their wedding next year. It’s sure to be one stylish, fun, event full of laughter and smiles. Go Sox!!!

Midnite Social Promo Shoot

There is little bit of rock star in me and every once in a while I feels really good to let her come out to play...

Rocking Out With Midnite Social

I recently took a brake from the cake cutting, ribbons, romance, and lace of a typical weekend and let my hair down a bit to shoot Midnite Social, a hot, new band straight out of Bean Town. They just launched their new LP and needed promo stills. I convinced them to drive to Maine to work with me. They were so much fun to shoot and they didn't mind getting dirty or scaling roof tops! Hopefully we'll see them in Portland soon, their sound is just too just to not share. I look forward to shooting them live in concert sometime in te near future.

Look at the awesome fan mail they sent me…

WOW! What’s up girl?! These are amazing!


You did a great job!!!
We had a blast working with ya!!!

Talk to you soon

Jess + Will Engagement

When Jess asked me if I would be willing to travel to shoot her engagement session at the exact the place where her fiancé, Will, proposed I said "absolutely"! It's not everyday that I have the opportunity to shoot an engagement session at the 'scene of the crime' and it's not everyday that I get to work with couples like Will and Jess! Their love absolutely radiates from them. They walked alone the beach, hand in hand, sharing smiles and laughter, and at times it seamed like the just forgot I was there—those are the moments I aspire to capture! Maybe it was the nostalgic location or the cool August breeze, but shooting these two was pure magic. Jess and Will appreciated their photographs so much; they have booked me for their wedding next June. I look forward to seeing this wonderful couple next summer.


Jess wrote me one of the nicest thank you notes:

Hi Erin,

I love them so much, they’re sooooo beautiful!!!!! Thank you so much! I’m going to have them forever it was so important to me that they were perfect. And you’re not booked up for a wedding yet on June 21st next year are you? Can you please mark that calendar of yours for that date if you’d like! Both Will and I would love to have you there as our photographer. My parents also think you’re very talented and are excited that I was going to ask you to do it. You again from the bottom of my heart you have truly captured us!

Kirsten + Jason Engagement

"April is the cruelest month, breeding

Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing

Memory and desire,stirring

Dull roots with spring rain..."

T.S. Eliot The Wasteland



As much as I adore, T.S. Eliot, I have to disagree with him.

April is a beautiful month, one filled with

the promise of newness, warmth, and blossoming love.

April is a month of anticipation and for Kirsten and Jason

it was a month they will never forget- 

The month he asked and she said yes!





This special couple holds a close place

in my heart. Kirsten is my only sister.

She met Jason in Army ROTC and it was love at first site.  (I think it was the uniform) 

Even though I photograph weddings

all the time, I was completely moved to tears

when my sister, Kirsten, asked me to be her

maid of honor and her photojournalist for

her winter destination wedding in MA this January.

Welcome!

When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.

Dear Friends,

I did it! finally managed to salvage enough free time time to launch my very own blog. It's been four months in the making and on the top of my to-do list for just as long. So my house is still half- painted and my floor still a trendy plywood waiting for some hardwood but I have a blog-
finally. Life is Good!

Isn't it funny how life has a way of keeping you from those things that just need to get doen? I've been so busy with weddings and commercial work that I just could never find the time to get this baby going. Well it's an ideal no longer! I'm officially staking claim in my own little corner of the blog sphere attempting to introduce myself, my work and my simple and stunning approach to photography and life. Who knows, if all goes well, it would be wonderful to reconnect with past friends and make new ones along the way.

So welcome to my Blog!



Since I had intended on posting back in May, I figure a recap of my summer is a wonderful place to begin, especially now that fall is here. So without further adieu, here is Summer 2007, A Look At Life Behind My Lens.....
