a bit about me...
behind the lens
A mountain born midwest raised artist, adventurer, advocate and mother of two radiant little girls. We love to dream and play and paddle and hike and create and kitchen dance. I value connection, vulnerability, curiosity and quirks. Striving to share that in my work.
Thank you for being here! It means so very much. If you're drawn to my images I'd love to hear from you.
Hi, I’m Erin—artist, adventurer, mama, and the heart behind August & Ivy.

a few things I love
“Erin is truly one of a kind. From the minute I contacted her with my idea, or lack of idea I should say, she was excited to tackle our request of, “ever had an idea you wanted to try but didn’t know who to try it on? It’s us, try it on us!” She was amazing to work with and even though it was so cold outside, she made it fun and worth it all. She has such a creative eye and I just love her candid shots that captured each of ny kids personalities. We had so much fun and laughed the entire time. Erin is the kindest soul and so easy to work with. Definitely a 10/10!”
She was amazing to work with, she made it fun and worth it.
We did an extended family session with both adults and small children. Erin found us the most unique and awesome outdoor setting. She was so patient with the children and made us all feel so comfortable, including my husband who dislikes having his picture taken. She took her time and took a ton of pictures, both candid and posed. We were so happy with the how the pictures turned out. We had so many great pictures, it was hard to choose which ones we loved the most. The setting was perfect and she captured so many different combinations. What I was most impressed with was how she was able to capture so much emotion between the various family members.
We had the most amazing experience with Erin at August & Ivy photography.
"We fell in love with her ability to truly capture the essence of our relationship in images so we were thrilled to have her photograph our family 17 years later. Not only did Erin do an incredible job of taming my not so cooperative kiddos she was also able to translate their beautiful, wild, and untamed spirits into pictures. We love the artistic and natural way Erin used color, angles, and perspective to bring our love to life in pictures we will cherish forever. I highly recommend Erin both for her artistic ability and for her kind easy personality.”
We were fortunate to have Erin photograph our wedding early in her career
“If you're in need of amazing photog skills for any occasion, a higher vibration, a pick-me-up, or just want to get to know one incomparable human - she's 100% your gal. Not only is she a top notch visionary, but she's just the ticket for when your soul is a touch exhausted. Erin, I am so honored and grateful I get to call you a friend. Your authentic zest for life is contagious”
