Yours is a life
worth celebrating.
IT BEGINS WITH A SIMPLE BELIEF:
Whether you’re here to document that cherubic new
babe of yours or the children who have each gone their
own way—the gift that is a life growing inside of you or
the pride of your first-born getting the acceptance letter
she’s dreamed of for years—one thing remains true:
Photos are just the beginning.
what you deserve goes beyond scrolling on a screen or sharing on social media. It’s about truly experiencing the images you invest in—about making them a tactile, textural part of your day, your home, your story. It’s about enjoying them. It’s about celebrating them. It’s about passing them down for generations to come—because they deserve to endure with all of the elegance in the world.
I founded this portrait photography house and custom-framing atelier because I know…
An expert styling consultation to set you up for stunning success. A family photoshoot you actually enjoy. And a deeply personalized custom-framing process designed to get the prints you love displayed artfully in your home, without you lifting a finger. All with a deeply skilled artist at the helm.
The ease you deserve. Facilitated by someone who understands that you care more about quality than quantity.
THE PROMISE:
If I’ve done that, I’ve done my job.
What I’ve created since is the most conscious, caring, and thoughtful portrait photography experience for you and yours. I want you to find ease in every second of our journey together (toddler meltdowns included, because I promise: I am an expert at navigating those).
I want you to end up with the caliber of art you deserve—imagery and custom framing that truly captures the richness of your life and the authenticity of your connections.
And I want you to walk past the art we’ve created together every single day and feel the pull towards the thing that drives underneath it all: love.
My passion for photography dates back to my childhood—I would set up photo shoots with my friends and family (complete with large fans for the full model effect). My mom, noticing my budding interest in photography, pulled out her old equipment and set up a darkroom in our basement. She taught me how to develop film and prints, and it became such a treasured activity we did together.
Hi, I’m Erin—and I built this place for you.
PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER & CUSTOM FRAMER
I went on to build a 15-year career in the fashion industry in NYC—but it wasn’t until my husband and I eventually left the City and set up roots in Connecticut that my deep love for this artform came calling back. As a mom of two, I found myself longing for a creative outlet—and I immediately knew photography was it. I bought my first “big” camera, took every single photography course I could find, attended in-person workshops across the East Coast, and worked tirelessly to turn my passion into a full-time career.

What I Stand For...
As a romantic and a perfectionist, I’m as creative
as I am determined to give you the best possible
art. I adapt with the lighting, surprises, and
mood of the moment—while leaning into my
artistic acumen and technical skillset to ensure
what I deliver is both inspired and sound.

Balance always
.
I live for life’s richness in all of its forms. When
I’m not curating artful gallery walls for my
clients, find me curating layered, textural
tablescapes for a dinner party (the bigger the
guestlist, the better) or adding pink peony bulbs
and white anemones to my English garden.

Lushness in
all things
.
I’m a mom to two small humans who keep me
silly and creative. I understand the longing to
bottle up a love that feels so big. I get what it’s
like when a wave of nostalgia hits hard. I know
family is everything—and that innate knowing
informs the way I serve you and yours.

Love at every turn

I stand for the kind of high design that feels as
fresh as it does rooted in timelessness. A
mahogany frame that harkens back to your
rowing days, a letterpress mat embossed with
your wedding monogram, a float mount that feels
as light and airy as your Nantucket summers
what I create for you takes its cues from the
classics while being infused with creativity.

lasts for generations to come. I personally make
every custom frame in-house and by hand

to the speciality tools I source—I work

quality art pieces that live on beautifully.
