Kara Layfield: Oh Erin...these are so precious!! I love your perspectives and I adore the family shot on the couch. Mom and Dad must be thrilled with these!! Really Great work Erin!!

this little guy was so sweet! it was his first time (ever!) on the sand. how lucky was i to capture these first moments as they unfolded. he took a few minutes to warm up and, then loved it. after a little bit of time… he was crawling, playing and walking in it like an old pro! he collected a few shells and, soaked up some rays. it was a lovely morning and, i couldn’t have enjoyed the company of this sweet boy (and, his family!!) any more. enjoy the sneak peek!

Kathleen: Beautiful shots. You certainly cannot tell how absolutely hot it was outside today.

Kara Layfield: Amazing Erin!!!! LOVE the shots with the lifeguard stand. He's adorable...those lips, those eyelashes and that dark wavy hair!! Great job!

Connie Lattin: You did an amazing job Erin! I know I'm just a little partial, but that boy is a beautiful boy! He really had a fun time with you. Thanks :)

shhh… this little sweetheart’s photos are a surprise for daddy. isn’t that sweet!! he smiled at me the second i walked in the door.. i knew he was going to be such a joy. the love between him and his mother was so evident. first, could she be any more gorgeous?? second, it’s clear, this boy is lucky to have such a loving mom to care for him and, i know his dad is going to be so happy to see his sweet face in a frame on father’s day. ok, now.. don’t tell. it’s a secret. ahhh… he is just so darling. enjoy the sneak peek!

Kara Layfield: Erin...these are stunning!! What a precious gift for Father's Day! I love the one of Mom and Baby on the bed. Amazing Erin!!!

I had the wonderful opportunity to do some work that is a bit out of my “forte”.. and, it turned out to be a lot of fun! A local European Designer approached me to photograph some of his work for his website. I not only enjoyed taking the photos but, I got to see some truly beautiful craftsmanship and design. His work was amazing! The details… the minimalistic approach to beauty… the modern upgrades.. they were breathtaking! Enjoy this little sneak peak. The photos are panoramic to fit with the design of his website. If you are in need of an amazing local designer and/or remodeling company, you have to check out his site : Euro Design Remodel

Kara Layfield: They must be thrilled! Thest are amazing! Love his designs.
