this is my friend erin.
she’s a stunner. and she takes stunning pictures.
when i look at her pictures this word pops to mind:

e⋅the⋅re⋅al  /ɪˈθɪəriəl/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [i-theer-ee-uhl]
–adjective 1. light, airy, or tenuous: an ethereal world created through the poetic imagination.
2. extremely delicate or refined: ethereal beauty.

erin’s pictures are very delicate, and very refined. every photoshoot looks like it is taken on the perfect sunday afternoon. (although, i guess a lot of her pictures really are taken on sunday afternoons since she works part-time, and is a full-time mom.)

erin takes amazing pictures, and i would say her forte is (are, actually, she’s got more than one!) family pics and senior pics. she is so great at capturing people’s personalities- from little babies, to big kids, to parents. she also does weddings, and maternity, and newborn pics, which are all really creative and beautiful. and ethereal.

anyhoo, there is a link to erin’s website on the side of my blog. (note: i CANNOT get a link within the body of my post. what is up with that?!?!? someone who is smarter than me- help me out!!!)

this should be what you see:

give her a call if you need some amazing pictures taken of yourself, or your loved ones. she also made my birth announcements for topher, and i have been to her house while she was putting together wedding invitations that she ordered/designed for a couple. i probably should check with her if she actually still does that stuff, but she is a creative genius, and God was real heavy-handed when He threw artistic abilities her way.

here are a few pics that i love that she has taken:

this is one of my favorite pics from erin’s website. it’s just a fun family having a fun time and erin having a quick trigger-finger to capture a pretty awesome moment.

yes i love this pic! yes, it’s of my sister and her family. it’s a double-whammy of love!

senior shots! so so so so so fun and awesome!
