I am a Northwest Washington based Family & High School Senior Photographer. Thank you for taking the time to check out my work - I hope you get comfy and stay a while. I have been a professional photographer since 2007, but it has been a passion for most of my life. I have been married to my best friend for 20 years and we have two amazing kids & 2 fur babies - a golden retriever and a mini schnauzer.

2. When should you have your photos taken? Late April, May & June are great months if you want green grasses, apple blossoms and Spring flowers. July & August are best for warm evenings with golden light. These are great months for beach sessions. September & October are great if you like the wheat color grasses and a hint of Fall color.
Erin always makes our family pictures fun! She is great with kids and puts everyone at ease. She gets the best shots because she takes the time to engage with everyone and is genuine. Her professionalism is second to none, so prompt on the turnaround of photos! Lastly, but the very most important, my pictures always exceed my expectations!
Full Sessions are the best choice if you love variety. We are able to capture all of the family combinations - some shots up close, some far away, candid, posed, individual and group shots, etc. Full Sessions are also great for Newborn & Senior portraits where the extra time and variety of poses are important.
Full Sessions give you the opportunity to warm up to the camera. They allow for more candid/artistic type shots that capture emotion and connection. They also offer more time to explore different backdrops and settings at a given location, and more time for outfit changes. I love the variety I am able to deliver with full sessions.
Colors don't have to match perfectly, rather find a family of colors that work well together. Everyone will be cohesive, yet wearing different solid colors! Throw in a pattern on one member for an element of interest. Don't be afraid to mix dressy with casual! See how my daughter and I are a little dressier than the boys, yet it all coordinates well for a very classy look!

Erin I just want to say thank you for being so sweet and amazing with my kids, they had a blast taking pictures and that's all they can talk about. This was my first time taking professional photos of my family and they came out so amazing I am glad I chose Erin. I will definitely continue going to her.

Erin is an absolute delight to work with. We hired her to take graduation pictures of our daughter 5 years ago and this year our son. Each time she was so easy to work with. Both of our children have a blast during the photo shoot. She is quick to respond, was flexible with scheduling and had our pictures completed quickly. She is a very talented photographer.
Best of all our pictures are absolutely beautiful!

Erin Cox is the most wonderful photographer! She has taken photos of our family for years, each image capturing amazing moments that we will always cherish. She photographed my son’s birth, and the years of his life since. She took photos of my family with my mother just before her death. She documents who we are over the years. We are NOT naturally comfortable in front of a camera, but she has an ease about her that makes us relax and enjoy the process. I am shocked every time she sends us photos that she can turn our goofy family into such wonderful images. She will always be our family photographer

Erin has been taking my family’s photos for 3 years now. She is WONDERFUL! Not only are her pictures beautiful she is very engaging with my kiddos. They look forward to doing our Christmas card every year at the tree farm and that’s saying something considering two of them are teenagers! She makes everyone comfortable and we truly enjoy the experience. We have done Christmas Card photos, couple photos and family photos...All of them turned out amazing. But Best of all she is extremely fast on getting your photos back to you!

I cannot say enough great things about Erin Cox Photography! Erin did newborn photos and family photos for me in December. We absolutely loved both her sweet and caring personality and the quality of her work. She takes her time and worked with my entire family and captured many special shots that we will cherish for a lifetime.
She is also unbelievably easy to work with; both in setting up the session, the day of the shoot and when she delivered the images. She provided our photos way ahead of schedule too. She even sent a few gorgeous previews the same day, just so we could see a few sneak peaks

Erin is amazing! We have worked with her 3 times in less than 2 years. She has able to capture incredible pictures but also has this naturally ability to make you feel like you have known her your entire life. I have always felt relaxed and comfortable regardless of how misbehaved the 2 and 4 legged family members were.
She was willing to drive over an hour to my husband's military homecoming.It was a super stressful day for all involved but she managed to take photos we will treasure for the rest of our lives.
I would recommend Erin to everyone and anyone looking for a photographer in the area

Erin was wonderful to work with!! She was willing to hike in the woods in the freezing cold so we could get the perfect outdoor setting for our pictures. Erin made it fun and got the entire family to smile, including the dog! :) My husband and son, who hate having their picture taken, actually said "that was easy" after our session. Yay! Erin got the beautifully edited pictures back to us within the weekend. I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again for family pictures!!!

I've used Erin many times for my business. She has taken everything from head shots of the staff to photos I put on Yelp to attract more visitors to my website. In fact, most of my pictures on my website are ones Erin has taken! Her pictures are wonderful. The lighting has been perfect and even the staging has been fantastic. I've have seen her work in both studio stills and sport action shots, all great. I'd recommend her highly.
