Boudoir Sessions

Does This Sound

Like You?


I don’t know how to pose or what to do for a photoshoot - I’ll give you direction the entire time; you do not need to worry about a thing!


I’m not very photogenic - Then I’m your photographer! It’s my job to pose you and guide you throughout the photoshoot.

I hear this all the time and it’s just not true.

I don’t know where to start - I will help you every step of the way with planning, what to wear, and what to do during your session.

KINDEST WORDS

Beverly R.

Erin did such a wonderful job taking my headshot for work! She really pays great attention to detail, which I really appreciated. She was super personable, sweet and just a pleasure to work with. I could not recommend her enough!

Carol W.

Erin recently did a branding shoot for me. I don't generally enjoy having my picture taken, nor do I love looking at myself in photos. Erin made the whole process so fun and enjoyable, from planning and finalizing poses and outfits, to the actual shoot itself. And the results are PHENOMENAL. I feel like she really captured my personality, and it will be a joy to use these photos in my consulting business!

Christy M.

Erin provided me the platform to love who I am, as I am, and who I am becoming. She posed me in ways to capture my personality and all aspects of the woman I am. Being plus-size, not every photo comes out the way we think they will. With Erin behind the camera, she made it happen. Tasteful, accurately me, and all the hats I wear - Lover, partner, friend, woman, influencer, and authentic. An absolute wonderful experience and I would do it again." 

MY MISSION

My Mission is To Help Others Realize Their Own Innate Strength and Beauty, And To See Themselves In A New Light. Every Person Has A Story Worth Sharing. Each Of Us Is Unique In This World And That’s Where Our Beauty Comes From.

My job is to remind you that underneath it all, who you are matters, who you are is beautiful and who you are is worthy.

A portrait session is so much more than beautiful photos - it’s transformational!

Maybe you haven’t connected with feeling beautiful in a long time, or maybe never. A photo session can show you how beautiful you are just as you are. No one else is worrying about those “flaws” you dwell on.

Trust me on this one.

MY PROMISE TO YOU:

You will feel comfortable and at ease during your session.

You’ll have clear communication, a stress free experience and guidance every step of the way

You will choose only the images you love, to purchase
