“ Nothing happens when you sit at home. I always make it a point to carry a camera with me at all times…I just shoot at what interests

What photographer doesn't like to hear all the great things that come from their clients...... One of the greatest lines of advertising in a small community such as mine is by word of mouth,  what I like to do is kindly ask my clients if they would submit something that can be posted on here for others like yourself, who are looking for a photographer to read over. To give you more of an idea of the kind of person and photographer that I am. It's a great way for future clients to imagine what I can do for them on their photoshoot and gives them reassurance that not only does my work speak for itself but my clients speak for me as well. 
I appreciate and treasure each one of my clients and I am happy to share all their comments with you. I keep a few on here at a time and update them often.
Thank-you for your business.

Modeling Photoshoot, March 2010

I am an aspiring model , and Erin was the very first one to start up my dream to have it come true. She had done a photoshoot for me , to send into agencies down in Vancouver , and as she was photographing me , there was a sudden realization that came. She put so much effort , and passion into giving her time for me to get the picture just right. the way that she lets herself go , and lives in the moment make the photograph beautiful , and peaceful. She was sweet , and kind to me when I had no idea what pose or how to hold my hands. I was extremely nervous , but she made it comfortable for me , and she helped me to relax , and just have fun. About four months after I had done my first photoshoot with Erin , we came together and did a fashion shoot , and it was wonderful , her creativity , and bondage with the camera is a gift that not everyone has. I can honestly say that I would not be where I am today , without her help. Her skills are unbelievable , anybody would be lucky to be in a photoshoot with her. From that very first photoshoot that I had with her sprung a confidence , and poise inside my soul , that I now share with the camera. Erin you helped me get where I needed to , and I thank you so much for that !
 

" Erin is amazing! We had the pleasure of her shooting our wedding this past June. We cannot say enough about her work. Erin didn't get a chance to preview the site, and I hadn't put much thought into photo locations, but she new exactly what she was doing and in a matter of minutes she had a ton of beautiful spots lined up. Her attention to detail is amazing, and her dedication is so evident while shooting pictures but even more after seeing the end result. My fear of not photographing well was quickly forgotten and I have never seen more beautiful photos of ourselves. Not only is she professional, but she is fun to have around. Our entire bridal party enjoyed spending the afternoon with her and I think some of them forgot she wasn't part of the party after she left. She made special arrangements for me to pick up the photos when it worked around my schedule and we are so happy with the end result. We are so proud of our pictures and each time we look at them we love them even more. We wouldn't of wanted to share our day with any other photographer, thank you so much !"

I have been looking at Erin's photos from the time she started, and I knew when a special event came she would be our photographer. My daughter's graduation weekend was it. After stressing over creating a pretty outside photo spot, Erin arrives and finds a perfect spot using a tree and a bush that I didn't even consider. It just doesn't seem enough to say that Erin is patient, accomodating and talented. The extra touches she does with her photos and special surprises made me cry. I love looking at the photos and will cherish them always. I look forward to the next opportunity to have Erin capture those moments we never want to forget.  ~Shannon Pennicott~

" I was looking for a fun, personal shoot to capture my family in our environment. Erin was quick to respond & gave us several dates to choose from. Erin came by to look at our yard & ensured us that it would work perfectly!
The day of our pictures was wonderfully natural & relaxing. Erin captured the innocence & mischeviousness of my children & the tenderness of our families love. I cherish our pictures & the memory Erin left us with. I am looking forward to future shoots.... Many, Many thanks..."

Erin was the chosen photographer for the 2010 prom. Erin was extremeley flexible with us as we changed things many times throughout the course of the year. It was never an issue and she was willing to do whatever we asked, including climbing on high roofs and tall ladders. After the formal photos were over, she just had some fun with grads doing small group photos. It was great! The Grads and the committee were extremely happy with the quality of work, creativeness and her patience with us and 220 kids! We highly recommend Erin for future grad events and any other large scale events. ~2010 PSO Dry Grad Committee~

" Where to start?? Erin literally had to get 'down and dirty' for our photoshoot! Brock and I were married in a wonderful ceremony on the lake and Erin took the most AMAZING pictures I have ever seen. Even though we were not familiar with how to position our bodies to take a good photo, Erin made everything so seemless and we felt very comfortable from the
 moment Erin picked up her camera. 
     Every movement ended up being beautiful and natural looking and when we received our pictures we were thrilled. We also got to be Erin's VERY FIRST trash the dress session ever! What an experience! Even in the pouring rain and hail Erin was able to get the most amazing images; although she DID end up muddy and soaked by the time we were done! Now if that's not dedication, I don't know what is.
    All in all... Erin we appreciate everything you did for us. You are a pleasure to work with a you definetly have an artisitc eye.

    P.S. We HIGHLY recommend the full-day package for weddings.... well worth it as no photo opportunity is missed!"

Wedding Photos, August 29, 2009

" We had Erin photograph our wedding last summer and we couldn't have made a better choice. She was fun and relaxing to work with. Her photography was absolutely beautiful and she took some stunning shots. We were very happy with all of the work she put into our wedding, and all of her creativity and professionalism. The photos were perfectly crisp, and there were a lot of awesome artistic touches that really made the pictures worthwhile. We ended up with a gorgeous album that will keep our memories fresh for a lifetime. We would highly recommend Erin to anyone, not just for a wedding, but for any photography. She was truly a pleasure to have on our big day. Thank you Erin! "

Michael VanKuipers

" Erin photographed our wedding in the summer of 2010, and I was blown away with how well everything went. I was a little nervous at first because I wanted everything to go perfectly! (Of course), but Erin was quick and efficient and really good at getting everyone together for the group shots so that everything went smoothly and was done right. She is excellent in picking out just the right spot for photos in a matter of seconds; she knows what needs to get done and does it right! I was very impressed with our photoshoot and in the end got many wonderful photos in a beautiful album. I highly recommend her for your special day!"

Tierney Bracewell

" Pictures speak louder then words, so what could I possibly say that her photographs don't already? Erin's incredible talent, creativity and love for photography shine through in every picture. I was so thrilled with my family pictures that she took a few years ago, that there was no doubt who I wanted to capture my wedding memories. She made enduring the freezing temperatures well worth it. The results are nothing short of amazing, something we will cherish forever. Needless to say I love our pictures and can't thank Erin enough! "

Kim McConkey

Erin is one word, FABULOUS!
Dylan and myself had never had professional photos done so we were quite nervous that it was going to be a completely awkward experience. Erin was so awesome and relaxed which allowed us to be relaxed and took stunning photos! Every one of my friends thought they were some of the best engagement photos they have seen. The colors are so bright and Erin was able to capture the true love Dylan and I have for each other!
Our wedding is taking place the end of August, at the Hills Ranch, and I am so excited Erin will be there to capture the most special day of our lives!
Thanks Erin, we are extremely excited to see you at the end of August...

For anyone looking at this website and about to click to another, STOP! This woman is amazing! We know this is meant to be a professional testimonial, however, after the experience we've had, we feel that Erin is really more like family.


First of all, we didn't even think it possible to find a photographer of this caliber in the countryside of 100 Mile House! We spent a significant amount of time searching high and low for a wedding photographer and by sheer luck we stumbled across Erin's website. After contacting her, she conducted business in such a professional manner, even though were a million miles away in London, England!


What we love about Erin is her personable and caring nature. She CARED about our preferences and style and she tailored a unique package, catering to our specific needs. She made herself right at home at our wedding, which was evident in the quality of the photos as everyone was so comfortable! Erin went beyond expectation and captured so many wonderful memories.


Our friends and family have nothing but the highest praise for our wedding photos! We have even been encouraging friends over here to go get married in 100 Mile House so Erin can do the pictures!!! We are pretty much the new PR department for Simple Elegance Photography.


Erin, thank you SO much for the beautiful gift you gave us, we are absolutely THRILLED with the results! Sometimes we cry ourselves to sleep about it. (Well Joel SAYS he doesn't, but I hear the tears after he thinks i'm asleep)


A sample of reviews we overheard:


"Best wedding pictures EVER" -Sallee's best friend
"THE best wedding pictures ever" -Sallee's mom
"cool..." -random guy
"OMG I love this! The best I've seen for 2011. Wedding of the year!" -Joel
"I want to cry. I wish I was there" -people who didn't get invited


So look no further. Just go with your heart. And your heart says.... Erin.... Erin... Erin.
aaaaaaaaaaaaiii
