Erin is wonderful to work with. Our family has had multiple photo shoots with Erin, and we've been delighted with the results. Erin is friendly, professional, great with kids, and selects gorgeous locations for our photos. Highly recommend!

the look

In the Light Sessions conducted outdoors just before sunset for optimal lighting conditions. If you would like an indoor session with a more documentary feel, please consider booking a 'Your Story' Session. I am always happy to recommend a spot for our session and have lots of places to suggest all over this beautiful state, but I love hearing your ideas too. Lots of places do require permits and often additional fees may apply, so advance planning is key and I encourage you to book early to avoid disappointment. For location ideas outside of Colorado, please get in touch. The sky is the limit!

My biggest goal for your session is for you to walk away with photos that showcase the bonds that tie your family together. I will always aim to get you the mantle piece photo somewhere in your session, but I'm willing to bet the photos you end up loving the most (and the ones that make my heart sing) are the ones where moms are snuggling their boys, or dads are spinning their girls dizzy. We will laugh, play games, tickle, run, twirl, and get a little silly! If I am lucky, your kids will either beg for the session to continue or forget I am there, both because they are having so much fun!

it's all about connection

where should we meet?

That love is all-inclusive, or it's not love. It is my honor to document love and family in all ways, shapes, sizes and colors. I support clients of all walks of life, gender identities, ethnicities, races, and sexual orientations. I adore photographing the wide array of personalities and people that come before my lens and welcome diversity in all its forms.

i believe

yes! this is us, we're in!

sunrise or sunset family sessions are perfect for families who...

the feel

Are up for an adventure! Splashing the waves, hiking a mountain trail, exploring street art downtown, or even jumping in the backyard pool- these are everyday parts of a ELP family photo session.

Love to get a little dressed up. Beautiful dresses for mom and the girls, and dapper threads for the dudes big and small- yet you also don't mind getting a little ruffled while having fun together!   

Love snuggling, cuddling, hugging, smooching and generally loving on each other! 

Are ready to PLAY! Games, piggyback rides, tickles, flying high, and just having a great time. 

Are relaxed, easy going and flexible when need be.

Includes the following:

A fun and relaxed session for you and your closest loves! Basically one big love-fest-laugh-til-you-drop-playdate.
