About
My artful approach to photography both flatters you and helps tell your story. Whether you're planning a wedding, want to capture memories of a growing family or just need some headshots, my priority is ensuring you have a great experience and love your images!
I've photographed weddings in five U.S. states and Washington D.C., and how I approach wedding day photography depends on the moment and your preference. Wedding days are joyful celebrations. As your lasting keepsake of the day, each photograph should be styled accordingly.
Are you looking for a wedding photographer to help ensure you'll have classic images from your special day? I offer complimentary consultations so we can get to know each other and I can show you what a wedding experience with me looks like!

We had a last minute change and needed a photographer, thankfully Wrin was available. She still made time to have a pre-meeting so all of our hopes and expectations were met! I can be a tense person but she kindly reminded me and the pictures truly came out so beautiful. Our wedding was very intimate in a family members backyard, she fit right in and started taking photos right away. She truly captured so many meaningful and fun moments. She has a sweet, yet, “get things done” personality which helped the day run smoothly and ensure we got all the photos we wanted. Hire Erin, she’ll make your special day even better!

It was such a pleasure to work with Erin! I was an out of towner hosting a surprise birthday weekend for my boyfriend in Washington, DC. She was very responsive and took the lead on recommending location and time for the shoot. The day of, she was timely and extremely professional. I was impressed with her ability to shoot with natural lighting. Erin made us very comfortable and offered a lot of recommendations for posing, smiles, etc. I highly recommend!
