Erin Belles Photography
You blink, and they're already taller. Their hands, once small enough to fit snugly in yours, grow bigger each day. You treasure each bedtime story, every spontaneous hug, every playful giggle—knowing deep down these moments are fleeting.
I understand this bittersweet truth intimately; it’s why I founded this photography business. My mission is to help families like yours capture the authentic emotion, deep connections, and gentle ease of your ever-evolving story, preserving these cherished moments in beautiful custom frames and heirloom albums.
The moments you forget about tomorrow, are the memories you’ll want to remember in 20 years.
Printed photographs to help you remember how beautiful this season of life really is.
This life of yours is rooted in both the finer things and the most genuine moments...
It’s stealing away for the summer and sipping a good glass of red—and it’s rolling up your pant legs and splashing in the sea. It’s curating a living space you love—and letting little hands turn your linens into the fort of their wildest daydreams.
It’s elegance and authenticity, balanced in the most beautiful fashion. And it calls for a portrait photographer who knows how to do the same.
It’s simple, really—I’m passionate about ensuring the photos we capture together aren’t just stowed away, but celebrated in your daily life. Beyond ending up with stunning family photos, your experience here takes you on an effortless journey to displaying them artfully in your home.
It’s an end-to-end experience I’ve created—not just as a portrait photographer and framer—but as a mom who, like you, knows time is the most precious thing we have.
I’m thrilled you’ve found your way here—welcome.

Gallery Wall Design & Creation

Each custom frame is made with museum-quality materials, acid-free mats, and UV-protective glazing to preserve your artwork for decades. I use time-honored techniques like French matting and hand-gilded finishes, all tailored to your home's aesthetic—so the final piece feels less like a frame, and more like an extension of your interior design.
You’re investing in more than preservation.
You're investing in beauty that belongs—on your walls, and in your life.
The weight. The craftsmanship. The way it belongs—perfectly—in your space.
This isn’t an off-the-shelf frame from IKEA or Target. This is a custom heirloom, designed with intention and handcrafted to elevate both your memories and your home.
Because you don’t just want framed photos.
You want warmth, style, and substance. You want to walk into your living room and feel like you're stepping into the pages of Architectural Digest—where every detail reflects your taste and every image tells your story.
You can spot the difference instantly—custom framing simply looks more refined.
CUSTOM FRAMING—ELEVATED AESTHETICS, BUILT TO LAST
Luxury You Can Touch
Albums help you freeze time and showcase the messy moments that you'll never want to forget—in a luxurious way. We capture the giggles, the belly laughs, and love behind every hug. The small—but important—moments that shape who they become.
Your life doesn’t have to look luxurious in order for it to feel that way.
Luxury Albums– Thoughtfully Bound, Forever Cherished
Families gathered once again in the storied home that hosted endless summers. Tiny new additions in all of their impossibly soft sweetness. Growing bellies—and “How did they grow so fast?” children. My portfolio of work preserves the fleeting feelings of the now through classic, timeless portraiture that lives on for lifetimes to come.
Instant classics that forever endure
STEAL AWAY & SEE WHAT’S POSSIBLE
There’s a flutter in your chest every time you walk past it—the gap from a newly lost tooth, the dimples that only show up when they laugh like that. These little details now live on your walls as daily reminders of the magic created in your every day life.
That’s the kind of art that belongs in your home—personal, meaningful, and full of feeling. Not generic prints from Target that say nothing about your story.
Art That Actually Makes You Feel Something
This is art with heart.
Art that means something.
Art that makes you pause, smile, and maybe even tear up a little.
It’s not just décor—it’s a daily dose of love and connection.
Curated photographs of your family do more than just "look nice"—they shift the entire feeling of a room. They spark joy, ground you in what truly matters, and quietly remind your children that they are seen, loved, and have a forever-home here.
Your memories deserve more than blurry snapshots and generic file names.
You deserve to walk past your walls and be reminded of what really matters.
You work hard. You love hard. You’re raising a beautiful family and doing your best to be present in a life that moves far too quickly.
The way your daughter twirled barefoot on the lawn.
The way your son still reaches for your hand.
The way your partner looks at you when you’re not looking.
These are the moments that make up the best parts of your life. They deserve to be seen, remembered, and preserved—beautifully, intentionally, and with care.
These aren't just photos — they're visual proof that you are here, loving them with your entire heart — and I’ll do the work to make sure they can always remember that.
The photos from your weekend ski trip (where they finally had the courage to tackle that Blue run) are already lost in your iphone storage.
Because one day they won’t want you to hold their hand.
