For the past two weeks, Weez, Reese (6 months old), and I were road tripping and camping out of our Subaru while exploring 5 National Parks (4 in Utah and this one, Crater Lake, here in Oregon). . What were some of our trip stats? 3200 miles driven // 8 nights camping // 4 total showers // 10 arches admired // dozens of coffee cups consumed // 1 really bad pizza // 3 Taylor Swift CDs thoroughly listened to // 0 sleepless nights (thankfully Reese loves sleeping in a tent as much as we do!) // countless trail miles hiked. . Our car is coated in a thick layer of dirt and sand, but I honestly can’t think of a better way to have spent the last two weeks of my maternity leave with my loves. I head back to Intel full time for the first time in 7 months on Thursday (gulp) and have every emotion under the sun. But the largest one is gratitude (okay, and extreme nausea 🤢😭). . . . . #shehikes #familycamping #travelphotographer #neverstopexploring #optoutside #findyourpark #rei1440project #outsideisfree #outdoorresearch #lifeofadventure #oregonexplored #takeahike #hikingwithbabies #momswhowork #ladybosslife
We’ve been on the road for two weeks now, and might I argue... this has been the greatest two weeks of my life. . . . . #familyphotographer #lifestylephotographer #liveauthentic #portlandphotographer #oregon #photography #loveyourownstory #pdxparent #campingwithkids #babyinatent
Our tender and mighty, chill and curious, sweet baby girl, Reese 💕We dreamed of you, rejoiced when we knew you were really coming, and cried big ol’ alligator tears the moment you finally arrived. And now you’re this solid-food-eating/tummy-time-playing/sitting-up big girl that brings us more joy than I could ever have imagined. Thanks for making me a mama. Of all my titles, this ones my favorite.
Had this whole caption written out and then I had to log out of IG for a password reset and lost all my drafted posts. 😱Let that be a lesson learned. So here’s a pretty photo of a super amazing couple. Their wedding day was 😍 . . . . . #weddingdaybliss #forevermore #weddingcouple #portlandweddingphotographer #oregonweddingphotographer #ido #weddingdayphoto #weddingportraiture #brideandgroom
We incorporated succulents on our wedding day, so every time I see them at a wedding I shoot it makes me smile ☺️✨ On an unrelated note, I was FaceTiming with my mom today and she goes, “Erin, you gotta hang up and go shower. You look a mess!”
I’m FEELIN’ the colors and textures of this perfectly curated bridal bouquet by @lucysinformalflowers and excited for all the bridal bouquets I have yet to photograph as wedding season blooms (terrible pun, Erin, just terrible). / On a completely unrelated note, Weez, Reese, and I leave for our epic Utah camping/hiking Utah National Park road trip in THREE DAYS IM SO EXCITED. 🏜🌵⛺️any must see recs around Moab and Zion? 🙏🏻 . . .

Happy Saturday, peeps! We’re headed towards Mt. Hood Nat’l Forest for a day hike with @amanda_jones_norwood @atnorwood and Cabo’s newest best buddy @crosby_stills. Moroccan latte from @ovationpdx in hand (our absolute FAVE coffee shop with the nicest owners). Looks like it’s gonna be a beaut. Hope y’all have an active and wonderful day!

Down pouring, freezing rain wasn’t enough to stop these two from being absolutely freaking flawless. I may have been a wet dog, but Jaime and Dave were anything but. Good thing for us, we had a team of vendors who made this styled shoot as absolute joy despite the weather’s every chance to send us running home.

We're heading out for a backpacking trip and about to find out how much snow there is on the Washington side of the Gorge. And Cabo is gonna have to show Reese how we roll in the backcountry! We've gone camping with Reese before but this is our first attempt at baby backpacking. Wish us luck 👨‍👩‍👧🐶🏕🏔 . . . #backpackingwithababy #backcountrybabes #familyhikes #startemyoung #pnwonderland #columbiarivergorge #lifewelllived #hikingwithkids #hikingwithdogs
Friends and fam know it's been my honor to be published as a scientist (while getting my PhD in chemistry). Since bringing EFP to Portland, I have also been humbled to become a published FAMILY photographer. As such, my 2018 business goal was to become a published WEDDING photographer. Today, for the first time, I can share with pride that my work is on the front page of Wedding Chicks' website. Please check out the beautiful article and gallery in the link in my bio! It took a village of incredible vendors to put together this gorgeous wedding styled shoot, and all the credit goes to: Event Planner: @youniqueeventdesigns Venue: @gray_gables_estate Invite Suite: @geminidesignhouse Calligraphy: @artful.virgo Floral: @thistleandfernfloral Cake: @sewellsweets Dessert Bar: @tresbellecookies MUAH: @victorialouhair Shoes: @houseofelliotlaceboots Model: @melissakate.pnw
