I am so happy with our choice to hire Erik from a thousand moments photography!! My wedding pictures are amazing, and he has gone above and beyond for us throughout the entire proc...
ess. Erik's work is beautiful, and he takes pride in his job! From our engagment session, guest book, and save the date cards... To our custom designed wedding album, and thank you cards I am happy with all aspects. I would highly recommend Erik to all brides! :)
From the first time I talked to Erik, to the follow up after the wedding, I am so very happy we chose A Thousand Moments! He went through every detail, even the things I wouldn't ...
think of! During the day of the wedding, he helped in keeping me calm so I would have a genuine smile on my face in all the pictures! The moments captured during the reception are awesome, many of which we'll be adding to our wedding album! After the wedding, we didn't have to worry about when the photos would be ready for us to see. The mock-up of our photo album blew me away! It was put together in less than a month after the wedding. I couldn't ask for better service!
I am so lucky to have found A Thousand Moments Photography, Erik is absolutely amazing! I felt at ease from the first time we met, I almost felt like he was too good to be true, bu...
t it wasnt : ) He took the time to get ALL family members names down and what photos we would want that day so if things got off track he could reel us back in... He was exceptional taht day of the wedding, he was on the ground on chairs-EVERYWHERE getting the best pictures. We got so many complimets on how awesome he was. He was just all around so easy to work with, he put our pics up within 3 weeks and we loved them all. I would sugegst him to anyone looking for an amazing photographer!!!
Erik is amazing. We had him take our engagement photos and our wedding photos and we could not be happier with our choice. I met Erik at a Bridal Expo and I remember he said to me ...
"I don't want to take photos of how you and your guests looked on your wedding day, I want to take photos of how you and your guests FELT on your wedding day." I was sold right then and Erik certainly did exactly that. We have over a thousand photos from our wedding that help us relive that amazing day every time we look at them. Erik will really listen to what you want and is great with suggestions without being overbearing. I have every intention of having Erik photograph our future children and highly recommend him to all brides everywhere!
I don't think my review can express how incredible working with Erik at A Thousand Moments Photography truly was. He is a super, down to earth, nice guy. He met all my expectations...
when it came to getting the right photos. And his work is just phenomenal. I am absolutely in LOVE with my photos. He was personable, but yet you really had no idea he was there. So many compliments about my photographer before I even received my photos. If you are debating on going with A Thousand Moments Photography, DO IT! Best decision I made. And I am one incredibly satisfied and happy bride :)
As a serious amateur photographer, I was looking for a wedding photographer whose sense of composition, lighting, and capturing the feeling of the moment were of a quality that wou...
ld yield beautiful photos that I would love and admire long after my wedding. Erik at A Thousand Moments Photography exceeded our expectations. So many of our wedding photos had great composition and perfect lighting while capturing us in so many magical expressions on our special day. Every special photo request was captured beautifully, and before the wedding, Erik even scouted out a few different locations to determine the optimal location for our formal family portraits. We received a proposed layout of our wedding album a few weeks after our wedding, and I liked very much that Erik does both the photography and the wedding album layout. Instead of us sorting through all the wedding photos to pick our favorites, Erik provided us with a head start by doing the initial editing by preselecting the album photos. We were very happy to have our parent albums completed in time for us to give them as gifts at Christmas. We loved Erik as our wedding photographer and recommend him to all of our family and friends.
Erik is amazing! He has such a great eye. He blended in and didn't get in any of the guest way but took the most beautiful photos. So much talent, couldn't be more happy with the w...
ay our photos turned out. I cant wait to get our wedding album!
Erik was wonderful to have at our wedding. We met with him and immediately decided to have him be our photographer. A friend's sister had him at her wedding, so we were referred ...
by them. He got all of the shots we were hoping for and so much more. I would definitely recommend Erik to other couples. Our photos were available quickly and our book design was great, it was very helpful for him to put the book together for us.
i liked that he took pictures of everything-but i didnt even know he was there during the ceremony...but when i wanted him 4 a specific picutre he has right on it. his prices are...
reasonable too. he showed up to the house i was getting ready at early & ready. hes very nice too
Like many brides I was getting a little overwhelmed over needing to make so many decisions and find the right vendors. I love pictures and a wedding photographer was very important...
to me. I wanted to find someone who not only took amazing pictures (and I'm talking about the kind you look at and think wow these look so much more beautiful then any pictures I could ever take ..as opposed to the kind you see and think that any guest at the wedding could have just snapped) but also who I felt comfortable around and could see working with on what I imagined would be a day where my stress level was incredibly high. We met with a few photographers and Erik was immediately our top choice. I have to say we really nailed our goal of finding the perfect photographer for us and someone we'd feel comfortable with and enjoy having around us on our wedding day. Erik was an absolute pleasure to work with and our parents and also many of our guests commented on what a nice/great person he is. We truly love our wedding photos and our biggest problem is that we have too many pictures we like which we now need to somehow whittle down to fit into an album. Our families and friends have also commented on how beautiful they think our photos came out. I do not typically write reviews but I really wanted to say that I don't think it's possible for anyone to regret choosing A Thousand Moments as their wedding photographer.
My high school friend recommended Erik from "A Thousand Moments Photography" to me for my wedding. We ended up choosing him and are so pleased that we did! Erik did an absolutely...
amazing job with our wedding photos! Throughout the day, he never stopped, snapping shot after shot. He captured everything including a plethora of very emotional and candid pictures. He was fantastic to work with and made sure to let everyone know that he would be more than willing to take any photos they wanted. We had a coffee-themed wedding and asked him during the reception to capture our wedding bands in coffee beans. The resulting photo was spectacular. Erik was very quick to post our photos online and the quality and scope of photos was amazing! Also, his pricing is very affordable which was very important to my husband and I. Because of his extraordinary level of talent, professionalism, and commitment, I highly recommend "A Thousand Moments Photography".
First off, anyone who has ever searched for a wedding photographer knows it can be a grueling task. Erik of A Thousand Moments was recommended to me by a friend of my mother-in-law...
. For some reason I always thought that I wanted a female photographer to shoot my wedding, so I sort of brushed it off. Once I exhausted all my other leads I contacted Erik and set up a time to meet and I am so glad that I did! Within 10 minutes of leaving the meeting I knew he was the one. I called him immediately to reserve our date. He was so professional, his work was amazing, and I instantly felt comfortable and confident that he would do a great job. We met last fall to do an engagement session. My husband isn't the most outgoing person and isn't very big into posed photography, but Erik made us have fun and we truly had a blast with the session - the pictures came out amazing - our friends and family loved getting them as gifts for the holidays and we used them for holiday cards and save-the-dates as well. The weeks leading up to the wedding Erik made sure we had communicated our must have photos and went over who the important guests of the wedding were so that he would know all their names and be sure to get shots of them throughout the event. (Very personal!) The day of the wedding Erik showed up well before we had scheduled to survey where he would be working. Throughout the day he did a fantastic job of keeping me at ease without really letting me know he was there. I cannot speak enough about the quality of work and professionalism that Erik possesses. Our photo's were ready for viewing along with a custom album within two and a half to three weeks and there were close to 900 amazingly beautiful shots! The turn around was so fast. He has been more than helpful in arranging and editing our album and we will be ordering it this week. We were married on June 8, 2013 and it is less than 8 weeks from the day of the wedding. - I know people who were married over a year ago and still don't have their albums! I would recommend Erik to anyone who is looking for a photographer - and already have! He exceeded my expectations!! Thank you Erik for capturing our day.

I couldn't be more pleased with my choice of photographer. I'm one hundred percent satisfied with every aspect of our wedding photography. Erik and his assistant were completely pr...
ofessional while making the experience fun. I highly recommend A Thousand Moments photography.
Truly amazing photos!! There are over 800 and I love every single one!! Very artistic!! Excellent to work with!

ront of the camera! He is truly a wonderful photographer and he does an amazing job!!!!
Erik made me feel at ease from the very begining. Everything surrounding a wedding seems to stress you out in one way or another and having Erik there made me breath a sigh of rel...
ief. I could just focus on our day and having a great time, instead of worrying about all of the pictures. He was so professional and so open to any ideas I had (even when I prob didn't make sense). People are still talking about how much he ran around the entire wedding trying to get every shot and after seeing the results you can tell how hard he works! Everyone was so impressed. His prices are great and affordable for people who might not have a huge budget. Just meet him once and you'll be sold.
Erik and his assistant were an absolute joy to work with. From our first planning phone call, to engagement pictures, to the big day itself and the album after, Erik was profession...
al, creative, and fun. He fit right in with our wedding party and made everyone feel comfortable. We love our pictures and the thorough (and fast) job he did putting our album together - we had the finished product less than 2 months later. We were so pleased we are using a thousand moments again for my sister's wedding next year. Highly recommended.
Erik was so great the entire day for our wedding. He took amazing pictures of my dress and my shoes while I was getting ready. I absolutely love the picture of my dad walking me ...
into the church with an umbrella over my head before the ceremony. There are so many amazing pictures that I can't stop looking at. He was very understanding of our budget and made a package to suit our needs. Now we have amazing photographs and the most beautiful wedding album. Erik was so flexible with everything and made sure that each shot was a good one. By far, the best investment in our wedding day!
Erik was absolutely incredible --- I could not have asked for a better photographer for the wedding. Not only did he do an amazing job photographing the wedding, he even helped ou...
t BEFORE the wedding -- he asked me about things and gave me tips on things I hadn't even thought of...my organization and actual wedding day went so much more smoothly because of his help. As far as working with him...the experience was fantastic! He is professional and courteous, incredibly likeable, and extremely hard-working. He takes so many photos and really captured the important moments and the mood of the wedding and reception. I am so unbelievably excited about and impressed with his work -- he is amazingly talented, a true professional, and an all-around good guy. I can't thank him enough for all he has done!
Erik was absolutely wonderful. He consistently surpassed our expectations. Our photos are artful, classic, and fun. (I joke that we could be stock photos for advertisements- we ...
look that good.) His use of color and angles is impressive. Our wedding was rather unique, as it was spread out over a couple of days. Erik accommodated this so willingly, and we are so thankful. One last note: at the close of our second day of celebrating we had an unanticipated fireworks show. Erik had already said his goodbyes just before the show began. Moments later I see Erik sprinting down the driveway to capture photographs of the fireworks. AMAZINGLY IMPRESSIVE PHOTOGRAPHER... he is talented, professional, accommodating, and committed.
I got married in Boston on August 27, 2011. The weekend of Hurricane Irene! It was, to say the very least, an experience! The weather understandably stressed me out, but everyon...
e rolled with it, and the wedding could not have gone better. Erik was so kind, fun, attentive and professional. The photos were so gorgeous. He caught some amazing moments. And our album is fantastic! We loved his photojournalistic style. And his photos are every bit as beautiful as the Boston photographers who charge over $6000. I would recommend him to anyone.
Erik was absolutely wonderful. Extremely professional but also knew how to make me relax and smile for the photos. Got some really creative shots as well as making sure to get al...
l of the classic shots we asked for. Best part was, he knew exactly how to get everything he needed without ever being in the way or blocking anyone's view. Great value for the price. I haven't even seen the finished photos yet, but I know they will be wonderful.
Eric did an amazing job photographing our wedding. I was so nervous the day of until he came to the house. He made me feel very comfortable and I really never noticed him at the ce...
remony and after portraits but he was there capturing all of the important moments and catching the small intimate and candid details. He was very unintrusive and took amazing pictures of us and our family. I am now picking my album pictures and he makes the process very easy. We came home to a mock-up album online that we can edit with his help. I have already recommended him to a number of brides and can't wait to have a hard copy album to show off.
Erik is a wonderful photographer. He managed to capture so many intimate moments on our wedding day that I know in 50 years when I look back at the pictures, I will easily remember...
exactly how I felt that day. He not only took wonderful, posed shots, but also captured many candid moments. He was there from start to finish and did not leave the reception until he knew he had taken every picture we wanted. He is wonderfully creative. I remember looking out the window on my wedding day, seeing Erik arrive (earlier than he said), and scout out photo locations before he even came inside.
My friends and family are raving about the pictures! A few new brides I know were recently complaining about their wedding photographer, saying they tried to get TOO artsy and there are just a million shots of their hands....but none of the bride and groom that you would put on your wall. With Erik, we had a hard time choosing which photos we'll put on the wall, they are all so great! Erik is one of my only vendors that I would highly recommend to anyone.
I would without a doubt recommend Erik Waddell to any couple looking for gorgeous wedding photos. Erik is not only personable, he is accommodating. Erik takes a range of traditio...
nal, innovative, and cameo photos. He takes hundreds of pictures, capturing every moment. I was satisfied with every shot making it difficult to choose pictures for my album! Erik’s website is efficient and easy to use. Erik produced the proofs within two weeks of the wedding, and prints within a week after ordering. He was willing to meet with me at any location of my choice, when I was available. Erik is always friendly and wants the best for my husband and I. Without a doubt, I would recommend Erik to every couple looking for spectacular pictures of the best quality taken by an easygoing character.
I met Erik Waddell at a bridal show and was immediately impressed with his work. It was clear that each of his albums reflected the individual personalities of the bride and groom....
He had a good mix of traditional and non-traditional photos, which was what I was looking for. Erik met with my husband and I on several occasions in our home prior to the wedding to discuss photo options and styles. He made sure that everything was set for the wedding weeks ahead of time, which was a great relief to me.
On the day of the wedding, my husband and I were extremely impressed with Erik's hard work and professionalism. He arrived early to take photos of the ceremony site and get a feel for the layout of the venue. He captured every moment of the wedding and made sure that every one of our guests was in a photo. Erik managed to take artistic and dramatic photos as well as great candid shots on the dance floor. He captured every moment of the wedding without being in the way of the party.
After the wedding Erik came to our house again to discuss the wedding album. While my husband and I were on our honeymoon he designed our wedding album and posted the photos online. Erik's design layout of the album was so beautiful we didn't change a thing! We received our wedding album and DVD with ALL of the photos within 2 months. I cannot express how happy I am that I had Erik as my wedding photographer. He went above and beyond what I expected from a photographer, and I would recommend him to anyone!
We could not have had a more enjoyable experience for our recent Cape Cod wedding! Erik was professional, courteous, and incredibly helpful from start to finish. We took our engag...
ement photos with him too and were so impressed. He truly cares about his clients, which is evident in his work ethic. I would absolutely recommend this service to anyone looking to feel even more beautiful on their special day.
Erik (photographer) is extremely talented & was a pleasure to work with. The album he put together for us is AMAZING & a true keepsake. Our family & friends have all ...
been WOWed by our album. Having fabulous photos to remember our special day was really important to me. Erik captured all the wonderful moments of our special day beautifully.
Erik from A Thousand Moments shot beautiful photos at my wedding in May 2010.
I'm still hearing people rave about them, 6 months after the wedding.
Erik is very easy to work ...
with and made capturing flattering shots seem easy. He called my husband & me before the wedding to be sure he knew of all the special shots we wanted of people so he would be sure to include them in the formal session. He also was wonderful the day of the wedding when surprises happened (like a bridesmaid pulling out a guitar and serenading me and my husband) and effortlessly captured shots.
The photo album we were given shortly after the wedding was beautifully designed by Erik and we made very few edits. Both the mother of the bride and mother of the groom are artists who attended Mass Art, and they were very impressed with Erik's work.
We also received a CD of all of the images from the wedding with full reproduction rights and 2 mini albums for the parents (with photos of their choosing).
I highly recommend hiring A Thousand Moments for your wedding and would be glad to show you my wedding shots, if it would help with your decision.
The photographer (Erik) was amazing. He was professional and got every shot! Our venue even commented after our wedding that he was the hardest working photographer that they had...
ever seen. Our pictures are beautiful and we could not be happier!
Erik from A Thousand Moments Photography was the first photography vendor that we saw at the very first wedding expo we attended… and as we walked away from his booth Dan and I imm...
ediately said ‘He is awesome!” – almost at the same time!! We saw other photographers, as there are many out there to choose from, but knew right away that he was the one and based on the few pictures he was able to post for us this week we couldn’t be happier! We (me, my husband, family, guests, friends, and virtually my whole office) can’t wait to see the rest of the photos from our day. He is also designing our album (which comes with his wedding package) and we can’t wait to see his layout! Erik is a quiet person but he knows his stuff. He takes shots from unique perspectives and traditional poses making for a really great mix of shots. He is open to suggestions and he was very good at mingling with the crowd and sneaking some of the candids in. Erik is organized and plans his day around your requests and ideas that you have but also incorporates fresh ideas we could never think of. We are very happy with what we have seen so far and if the rest of his work is anything like the few pictures we have seen, he is a bargain!! Hurry and schedule him before he starts charging more for his stunning work!!!! : )
I had Eric shoot my wedding pictures and I loved the pictures as well as the service. He was with me all day and his mission was to take as many great pictures as possible which is...
how a wedding photographer should be like because those pictures will be with you forever! He is an awsome photographer, all my guests kept talking about what a great job he did with my pictures. Also the album that came with the package is gourgeous. His price is very reasonable for the package that he offers. Other photographers will charge you double of what Eric charges and the finished product is the same if not worse. I would highly recommend A Thousand Moments Photography!!
