Meet Erinn: Upstate New York Wedding Photographer & Videographer

Welcome to My World

Hey there! I’m Erinn, a dedicated wedding and portrait photographer based in Upstate New York, available for worldwide travel. I specialize in capturing cinematic, in-the-moment love stories, as well as families, brands, and portraits, creating imagery that feels authentic, emotional, and timeless. Whether it’s an intimate destination elopement, a breathtaking wedding in Upstate New York, or a couples session in destinations like the Northeast, California, or Hawaii—my home state, I’m here to document your journey in a way that feels like a scene from your favorite film.

My Journey Into Photo & Video

Photography and videography have always been more than just professions for me—they’re a way of preserving stories, emotions, and memories in motion and stillness. I won’t lie, this wasn’t my first career choice, but this has become the path I would choose over and over again. When I first picked up a camera, I didn’t realize it would one day be my passion and livelihood. But over time, I fell in love with the power of visual storytelling—whether it was freezing a fleeting moment in a photograph or bringing movement and emotion to life through video. Over the years, I’ve honed my craft, blending artistic composition with natural storytelling to create imagery that feels cinematic and intentional—both in photographs and films. My passion lies in capturing real, raw emotions that transport you back to that exact moment—whether through the depth of a photograph or the movement of a film.

What Inspires Me & Fuels My Creativity

I find inspiration in:

• Authentic Connections – More than just capturing faces, I strive to document the emotions and bonds that make each story unique. Whether it’s the raw, unfiltered love between couples, the laughter of a family sharing a moment, or the quiet in-between glances that go unnoticed, these connections are the heartbeat of my work. I love when people let go, be themselves, and trust me to capture their story in a way that feels true to them.
• Breathtaking Locations – While I’m based in Upstate New York, my work has taken me across the country—from the coastlines of California to the lush landscapes of Hawaii, my home state. Traveling fuels my creativity, and each location tells a different story. Whether it’s a golden sunset over the Northeast, the vibrancy of cityscapes like Boston and Austin, the coastal charm of Southwest Florida, or the tropical beauty of the Pacific, I find inspiration in every place I visit. I love weaving the energy of a location into each session, making it an integral part of the story.
• The Beauty of Imperfection – Some of the most powerful images aren’t the perfectly posed ones but the ones that capture life as it happens. The wind messing up your hair, the movement of a dress as you spin, the way light spills through the trees at just the right moment—these imperfections make a moment feel real. I embrace the unpredictable because that’s where the magic happens. It’s in the messy, unplanned, beautifully chaotic moments that the best memories are made.

What You Can Expect Working With Me

If we work together, you’ll get more than just beautiful photos or films—you’ll get an experience that is thoughtfully crafted to tell your unique story. I strive to make every session fun, comfortable, and stress-free, allowing your true selves to shine—whether we’re capturing still moments or bringing your story to life through video. My approach is relaxed yet intentional, ensuring we capture every laugh, every glance, and every heartfelt moment. Whether you’re planning an intimate wedding in Upstate New York, a destination wedding in Europe, a romantic engagement session on the west coast, or a branding video to elevate your business, I’ll document your love story in a way that feels true to you.

Let’s Create Something Special

I’m so excited to embark on this journey with you! Whether you’re envisioning a documentary, cinematic elopement in the Catskills, a vibrant, love-filled wedding in the Hudson Valley, a timeless wedding in Boston or Rhode Island, an intimate session in Virginia or Philadelphia, or an adventurous destination shoot across the pond in Italy, I’d love to be a part of your story, whether through stunning imagery or cinematic films that let you relive every moment. Let’s make magic together.
