Erin connects with her subjects using all of her senses. Her love and empathy creates safe spaces for people to be themselves. This has opened up the world for Erin as a content creator, while photographically she specializes in private weddings and portraits. Additionally, Erin continues to evolve her compassion project, where she photographs people who have been through trauma. 

Erin strives for meaningful connections that cross cultures, abilities, and struggles in hopes of making the world a brighter place. 

“As an artist, my favorite thing to do is look beyond the obvious, and make genuine connections. Art allows us to not be alone in a crowded room.” - Erin
