Your Photographer in Monterey, Big Sur, Carmel & Beyond
A passionate Elopement, Couples & Boudoir photographer helping clients create & capture unique one-of-a-kind sessions.
Hi, I’m Erin
Monterey, Big Sur & Carmel Photographer
I specialize in intimate, romantic, and empowering photography across Monterey, Big Sur, and Carmel-by-the-Sea. My work is grounded in real connection, emotion, and the deep belief that your story deserves to be preserved beautifully.
I photograph with my whole heart and believe that the best images come from moments where you feel fully yourself — whether you're eloping barefoot on a cliff or showing up for yourself in a boudoir session.
Photographer, storyteller, dog lover and your calm creative guide behind the camera.

Why I do this.
After losing my mom to cancer in 2019, I realized how truly powerful photographs are. The last professional images I had of her were from my wedding in 2017. I reached out to the photographer afterward to try and get the gallery again… but I never got a reply. That moment changed how I approach photography forever.
Now, I don’t just take pretty pictures. I create meaningful, lasting memories — and I give my clients the experience I wish I’d had: one that’s intentional, kind, and full of heart.
I believe in the power of a single image to hold a lifetime of memories.
Clients describe my work as emotional, editorial, and grounded in honesty. My goal is to make you feel like you’re just having a beautiful experience — and I’ll capture the magic of it along the way.
Whether you're in front of the lens for the first time or you're a natural, I’ll guide you with gentle direction, positive energy, and an eye for the in-between moments.
