HELLO!


I'm Erin

I’m the photographer behind E Mc B Photography. For more than 20 years, I’ve photographed babies, children and families with a focus on connection over perfection.


My approach is relaxed and natural, with soft colors, simple settings and plenty of room for your family to just be yourselves. Sessions take place in my Chesterfield studio, outdoors around Richmond, or in your home.

My always happy baby started the session in tears, but Erin was so calm and patient. She made us feel completely at ease. The photos are absolutely beautiful and capture my baby’s  sweet spirit perfectly. We’ll treasure them forever

Erin’s client closet is a dream! She has dresses I would never buy for myself but made me feel beautiful and comfortable. She makes each session feel completely effortless, and every time I see the photos, I’m genuinely stunned by how beautiful they are. Her work is timeless, and I’m always so grateful to have these moments captured so perfectly.
