Erin’s background in editorial photography equips her with a keen eye for detail, allowing her to create imagery that resonates across various platforms and for a diverse array of clients.

Her work has been featured in publications such as The New York Times, National Geographic, Harper's Bazaar, The Magnolia Network, and Yankee Magazine.

Erin grew up in the restaurant industry in rural NJ, got her BS in Marine Biology from the University of Rhode Island, lived in Hawaii and California, and then returned to the East Coast and graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design's CE program in Digital Photography. Erin lives in a 100 year old bungalow in Rhode Island with her husband Nic and any number of foster dogs. When she isn't darting off to a new country, in her freetime you can find her searching thrift stores for treasure with a coffee in hand. She's PADI certified and ready to dive in to your next project!
