Erin Deardorff - Denver, CO
Bio
Erin Deardorff is the award-winning photographer behind Saving Memories by Making Memories. Her work focuses on capturing meaningful moments and helping others connect more deeply with their experiences through photography and mindful observation.
A picture is worth a thousand words as they say and I found sharing life’s experiences was far more enriching through a lens than a pen or a brush. What started as a blog to share my training and completion of a charity bike ride led to a profound passion for capturing meaningful snippets of my life. I know each action-packed or serene moment is fleeting, and I want to ensure the pause between shutter clicks is never lost.
