    In My Daughter’s Eyes | Personal| Redlands Family Photographer

    May 20, 2020 /

    “In my daughter’s eyes I am strong and wise I am a hero And I know no fear But the truth is plain to see She was sent to rescue me I see who I want to be In my daughter’s eyes” -Martina McBride I remember hearing this song when it first came out and hoping my mother knew that is how I viewed her. I had no idea that someday God would use my own daughter to reflect this truth to me.  To raise a daughter is to see a reflection of the feminine heart and soul walking around outside your body. It is an opportunity to feel how…

    I Ran Away From Photography

    May 5, 2020 /

    May 2019. The last time I photographed professionally for a client was a year ago, and honestly, I only took one session before that. In fact, in this past year I haven’t picked up my camera much for personal work either. I stopped participating in online photography groups, stopped opening my collection of books, stopped the educational videos and workshops. I ran away from photography.  There are a whole host of reasons I walked away, pressed pause on what brings my heart so much joy. I felt the weight of the investment vs. payout consideration every small business makes, I felt the pressure of being a mom and wife first and…

    Our Family Adventures Part 1 | Redlands Family Photographer

    July 16, 2018 /

    One of my absolute favorite things about being a family storytelling photographer is turning the camera on my own little family. Being able to document our adventures and our every day moments brings me so much joy but I realized I’ve never shared them with you! So here is to my effort to get caught up on our year, even if it is already July, and share some of our life and how I document our love. So starting with January and February, 2018. These months were full of trips to the zoo, her first snowfall, park dates and unfortunately, a battle with pneumonia. Our walls are filled with images…

    Best of 2017 | A Year In Review | Redlands Birth and Family Photography

    January 1, 2018 /

    I look forward to this post every year. The chance to pause and reflect on the journey and accomplishments, both personally and professionally, is one I appreciate as life so often blurs from one day into the next. Personally, 2017 was a year of refining and redemption. After 2016 broke our hearts we welcomed our rainbow baby, Annalise Mina, with joyful hearts and open arms. She has been a true joy and the light of our life. We also moved from Los Angeles to Yucaipa to be with family. Living with my family has provided the opportunity for me to stay home full time with our little one during this…

    Images of Thankfulness | Redlands Family Photography

    November 24, 2017 /

    I am deeply grateful for each and every client that opened their hearts and homes to me. Documenting your heart and soul is my passion. I am truly thankful to tell the story of family, a sacred, beautiful and powerful force. It is all an undeserved grace and a story that can change the world. In addition, we have been deeply blessed with our own beginnings of family. Our precious girl is our world and reminds me daily of the thousands of reasons I have to give thanks.

    From cozy sweaters on the racks to pumpkin lattes at the coffee shop, everything is screaming fall is here. This Southern California area heat on the other hand makes me think summer adventures will last forever. While we are holding onto some last remains of summer and having adventures in Yucaipa and Oak Glen, sadly our summer loving is over for the most part. Since it is over a 100 degrees today though I am going to pretend it is still the carefree days of adventure and share a few of my favorite images from the past few months. Park days were a staple of our summer. Baby Annalise loves…

    Last week’s celebration of breastfeeding during World Breastfeeding Week had me reflecting on the experience as a new mom and gave me a chance to share some beautiful images of my amazing clients.

    Changes for Captured Grace by Erin

    After typing the title I am now singing “Ch-ch-ch-changes! Turn and face the strange changes. Time may change me but I can’t waste time” (be very glad you can’t actually hear me singing). Okay, now that my cameo as David Bowie is over, I am so excited to share some major changes happening over in the Captured Grace by Erin world. First, we moved! Our family is now located in the beautiful hills of Yucaipa, Ca. Having lived in the heart of downtown Los Angeles for the past 7 years this is quite the change. Birds replaced helicopters and trees replaced skyscrapers. I am not complaining. The Yucaipa sunset is…

    Documenting Life after Loss

    June 5, 2016 /

    Every new year you think, this is going to be THE year. The start of a calendar year is always filled with so much hope that we try not to think that it could be the year that brings hurt and pain. Yet, I have lost count of the number of times my husband and I have turned to each other and mentioned how hard 2016 has been so far. A year filled with personal loss and deep soul searching, a year of being tossed by the waves. It will be “one of THOSE years” for us forever. Yet, in the struggle there is always beauty. I have found a deep love for…

    A Handful of Images | On Photography and Loss

    March 24, 2016 /

    We recently experienced a death in my husband’s family as we lost a family matriarch after 92 years of a life well lived. As I sit with the family the conversation turns to how to best celebrate her life during a memorial. Images are a meaningful part of the celebration, a handful of images are all that we have. These photos from her life are being gathered from various boxes and computers, each bringing up another memory and revealing a different aspect of her life.  Yet I find it so sad to hear each family member wish they had more to remember her by. Why is it that we so often…
