My Approach
I’m a big believer that the best photos come from moments that are genuine. This is why I give gentle direction when it’s helpful, but I’m never going to force something that doesn’t feel like you. Most of the time, I step back and let your day unfold naturally, quietly paying attention to the moments you might not even realize are happening.
My goal is simple:
I want you to feel at ease, fully present, and genuinely yourselves.
When you do? Your photos become honest, emotional, and rooted in the story God is writing in you.
Experience You Can Trust, Moments You’ll Love
I’ve been photographing people and their stories for over five years, but weddings have quickly become the place where my heart feels most at home. Before officially niching into weddings this past year, I second-shot countless wedding days. This allowed me to learn the flow, the light, and the real moments that matter most. Since then, I've photographed several weddings on my own, along with many intimate ceremonies and engagement sessions that have helped me develop the gentle, natural approach I’m known for. Couples often tell me they feel calm and comfortable around me, which is the biggest compliment. I’m here to guide when needed, stay steady in the chaos, and quietly capture the honest moments that make your day yours.

Behind the Lense
Heyyy! I'm Erika. A wife, mama, and photographer who cries during almost every wedding at some point. I’m someone who loves mountain drives, slow mornings, and finding the beauty in simple things. I want to assure you, I’m not here to be the center of attention or to run your day like a production. I’m here to serve you, celebrate with you, and quietly capture the moments that will become your legacy.
If we work together, you’ll get a photographer who’s calm, steady, and genuinely invested—not just in your photos, but in your marriage.

"If you’re on the fence, just book her. Erika captured our day exactly what We wanted. She gave us gentle direction when we needed it, kept things relaxed, and hyped up our wedding party like she’d known them for years. Our photos feel like real memories, not stiff poses. We’ll treasure them forever.”
