A VT Wedding on the Shores of Lake Champlain Paige and Raymond’s wedding day was, in my opinion, the way every single wedding day should be treated. It was FULL of sentimental family heirlooms, family traditions, and family history. Nothing was done for show or because they felt they had to do it because that’s […]

An extended celebration on the shores of Lake Champlain What’s better than photographing a beautiful couple once? Getting to do it twice 😉 Claire and Matt were one of my “Covid Couples” meaning, they still went ahead with their planned celebration (just on a smaller scale) and held off on their larger celebration until a […]

A downtown Lake Placid, NY wedding It’s giving…Vogue. This wedding was so beautiful in every single way from the people, the outfits, the florals, the details, just everything! Well…except for the weather. Mother Nature clearly didn’t get the memo and we were bickering with her all day. In true Erin fashion though, I didn’t let […]

Lesson #1 to any new photographers out there…ALWAYS show up to wedding days EARLY! My rule of thumb is to arrive no less than 30 minutes early to each wedding to account for traffic, weather, location scouting, direction mishaps, etc. This was one of those wedding days I’m so glad I set this rule for […]
