Charleston is one of the most beautiful and most visited cities along the east coast. We are a city that is rich with history, charming architecture, gorgeous beaches and a booming culinary scene. After living here for 8 years I have explored all the nooks and crannies of the Historic Downtown and enjoy taking my clients through my favorite spots you won't see on any tours.
I am a portrait photographer and an artist by trade. As an artist, I believe your family's finished portraits are the most important and most satisfying part of your photography experience; the fruit of your labor. I take pride in creating images that you will want to hang on your walls. After all, your family is your masterpiece and should be treated as such!

Whether you're just here visiting or have lived here for many years, nothing takes your breath away like the sunrise on the beach. These sessions are truly timeless and will be a cherished family memories for years to come. Sunrise and Sunset Portrait Session Packages are offered for Folly Beach and Isle of Palms for anyone residing in or visiting the Low Country.
I specialize in family portraits all around the Charleston area. From the beautiful plantations, to the alley ways of historic downtown, to the sandy beaches! I have been capturing growing family's love and connections for years and am so thankful to have a variety of backdrops to do so. These portraits are such an important heirloom for your family history and I enjoy creating images that can be passed down for generations to come!
Extended Family Sessions and Family Reunions are some of my absolute favorites! I really enjoy capturing generations of families, grandparents and grandkids, cousins, siblings, the whole thing. When you book an extended family session with me I take the time to go through and capture all the family relationships, generational of girls, and boys, siblings and parents, and couples.
In recent years, maternity sessions have grown in popularity and have become a one of a kind portrait experience. Often times this is the first formal session you have after your wedding day and the last portraits you'll have of just the two of you. Showcasing that growing baby bump makes for stunning images and make an expecting mother feel beautiful at a time where she typically may not.

We just finished our 6th session with Erin and I cannot say enough good things about her. Her images are absolutely beautiful! It is easy to see her talent when images are delivered. Erin can bring smiles and "looks" from all family member all while capturing the perfect angle and background. As a baby, my daughter used to mean mug every person she saw and Erin got cute baby grins. Now as an unpredictable toddler, Erin remarkably managed to get the most magical smiles from her. Family photos are very important to me and the memories she has captured will last a life time!

Erin has been taking our family portraits for the last 4 years. She is extremely talented, and we’ve enjoyed seeing her improve as a photographer over the years. Erin is very good about communicating expectations for your session ahead of time and is timely in responding to questions or concerns. She is true to her delivery date of your session and does a great job of including a sneak peek beforehand. We just love her!

Erin nailed it again! She did our newborn session and I couldn’t even believe how amazing every photo was! She needs to add baby whisperer to her title because Laila was so calm and relaxed the entire time it was amazing! Will for sure be using Erin for the years to come! Thank you again Erin, can’t wait to see our photo album!

We had our maternity photos taken by Erin and she did an amazing job! She is very responsive and so helpful. She has been responsive from the moment I inquired photo pricing with her. I absolutely love that about her! The turnaround time for getting your photos back from her is super quick and fantastic! She will also be taking our son's newborn photos when he arrives. We will definitely be using Erin for future family photos.

Oh man where to begin?! Erin was amazing from start to finish! I was so self conscious and not only did Erin help me change out of every dress but made sure I looked my best and would fix my hair or makeup between each take! The heat is insane in Charleston and she made sure I felt ok and would check in on me between each picture. She truly is amazing, she even got my hubby to smile (he despises pictures!) and he even said he had a really good time taking them! Thank you Erin for helping us capture such an amazingly special time in our lives! After such a battle and years of praying for this

Erin did our maternity and newborn pictures and they came out beautiful! The planning process was super easy and she was always very responsive to any questions we had. She also was great at making us comfortable during our session, helping me get dressed and fixing my hair between each photo. She delivered our galleries within two weeks as promised and put together a beautiful leather bound album of both our sessions. Loved working with her and would highly recommend!

Erin always goes above and beyond all of our expectations! She's been capturing memories for our family over the last year since our first son was born, and we couldn't be more thrilled with her work. We've used her for maternity, newborn, and family photo sessions. She even chose a dress from her client closet for me to wear in our newborn session so that I didn't have to think about it. I'm having a hard time choosing which ones to print and display because I love them all! She's fun, personable, professional, and has a quick turnaround. We've made a friend for life, and I love knowing that we

I contacted Erin for an engagement photo session in March 2021. I told her I wanted to propose to my girlfriend in Charleston during Memorial Day weekend and I wanted a professional photographer to capture the moment.
Erin suggested an amazing spot for me to pop the question which didn't have a lot of foot traffic, yet captured the quintessential architecture of Charleston. Needless to say, she picked the perfect spot! After I popped the question, Erin even had a bottle of champagne ready for my fiancé and I to enjoy! Erin made the photo session very enjoyable and we are able to take many everlasting

Erin was fantastic to work with! We initially scheduled newborn pics but we delivered right at the beginning of covid! Erin was so patient with us as we rescheduled and then ended up doing extended family photos at thanksgiving! The pictures turned out amazing and so quickly! We will definitely use her services again in the future. Thank you again, Erin!

OMG!!!! Erin was absolutely the best!!! We planned our destination wedding having no clue who we wanted to hire as a photographer. Erin came highly recommended on the folly beach Facebook page so after researching several that came recommended we decided we loved her work and went with her.
SO glad we did!!!! Not only did our wedding photos turn out insanely beautiful she was an absolute pleasure to work with!!! She made our children, family and us feel so comfortable posing for pictures it was almost as though we had a family friend doing our photography.
She was also very fast with the turnaround

Erin did such an amazing job with our family photos. We have one year old twins and a six year old, so that is no easy task! She came prepared to catch the attention of the kids and made them feel at ease. She edited the final images to add such beautiful light that really made the final product priceless to me. We would be happy to work with Erin again and in fact plan on it!
