Hi, I'm Erin, your fun-loving, bubbly, professional third wheel!
I am a wedding and adventure elopement photographer based on Oahu, Hawai'i. I love being outdoors and combining my love for nature with my love for art and photography.
I've been a professional photographer for 4 years. I'm also a nurse, a wife, and a "dog mom"!
I'm originally from Buffalo, NY, and I've lived on Oahu for 3 years. Though I miss the change of seasons, this is my favorite place in the world. The islands are truly magical and bring me a sense of peace.

My Approach
I'm VERY "Type A" when it comes to my buisness. For example, I will quite literally hand-pick and hand-edit every single photo in an entire 800+ photo wedding gallery and triple-check that they're all backed up in multiple locations. At the same time, I'm also a free-spirit at heart. I will rearrange my schedule to accomodate for a last-minute adventure. I am the "yes" friend, the one who is always down to hop on a plane, see a concert, hike a new trail, or simply paint on the beach during a sunset. I'll climb a mountain for your elopement. I'll put my special "rain coat" on my camera and photograph you dancing in the rain. As Chris McCandless once said, "happiness is only real when shared." I'm here to share your happiest moments with you and document your joy through photography. Let's be wild!
My dad says I was born with a paint brush in my hand. I have loved art and ALL things creative since I was just a toddler. I've always enjoyed painting and drawing, and I became interested in photography when I was in high school.
I went to college for nursing. I have my BSN, and I work as a labor and delivery nurse. I LOVE my patients, and being a nurse is rewarding. Photography started as an outlet. It was a way for me to be creative and relieve stress. Ultimately, I fell in love with it. I (officially) launched my photography buisness about a year after becoming a nurse. What started as a hobby became so much more: a new career. My goal is to have a family some day and a healthy work-life balance. I believe that the one life we get should be filled with doing what we love!
