Hey!  Hi! 
I'm so glad you're here!

I am a timeless but modern Detroit wedding photographer. Sure, we’ll take those formal family photos, but I love to shoot authentically, not you in an uncomfortable pose. I want to document your real love.  I unapologetically don't follow trends and photograph in a way that feels right + timelessly.   Though I love shooting all over the world and being so inspired by new colors and textures, being a Detroit wedding photographer is my everything!

From the moment we meet, I keep it fun. Trust: I take my job very seriously, but wedding planning shouldn't be. I help you with your timeline, refer you to my favorite friendors (that's vendors who are friends), help you laugh when you're stressed and that's just the planning part!

Wedding day, I keep things super chill - I help out when you need me and blend into the background when you don't. This is my 11th wedding season and I've shot 200+ weddings so I have the experience you're looking for. I fasten boutonnieres in 5 seconds flat, get you drinks, make sure you have time alone, and laugh with you when you're nervous. I honestly just want you to have the best day ever, end up with bad ass photos and see me as someone that helped make your day even better.  

And that's just me! Lynsey and the rest of my team are not only talented photographers, but they are also great friends who I get a long with deeply in my personal life. You're gonna love them!

Erin's 8 hour wedding day package starts at $5,800. The average wedding couple spends $6,300-$7,600.

Yes!  I'm just as excited as you are about your photos!  I will post a significant sneak within 2 days of your wedding of all of my favorite moments for you to share with family and friends!  they're also uploaded as high resolution, so you're able to print those!
