Words can not express how amazing Erika was/is! The attention to detail and the energy she gave made the picture component so fun. The teaser I have seen of my photos have me speechless and can’t wait to see them all! Would recommend her for any occasion we will definitely be using her in the future!
Erika is truly amazing! I couldn’t have asked for not only a fantastic photographer but simply as a person to be at our wedding and take photos. We got so many stunning photos. I’ll never be able to recommend her enough! Above and beyond everything.
Erika is AMAZING! Had our engagement photos and Wedding Photos done by her! Full of energy and all around fun to be around! Wouldn't choose anyone else! You will not be disappointed if you hire her!
Beyond amazing and professional!! Our photos came out even better then we ever would have thought. Erika was fantastic, she listened to my needs as a bride as well as my husbands. She was efficient and kind, and all around wonderful! She gave us the amazing ability to re-live the best night of our lives in a very memorable way, thank you COA!!
Erika is the sweetest person, great to work with, and so talented! She photographed our wedding and did such a great job! She captured the heartfelt moments, the action and the beautiful colors of our wedding in the most picture perfect way. I am not a photographer but I love how she captures movement and bright colors in her photographs in a very elegant way. She's also very humble, genuine, easy going and responsible. Can't wait to go up to Northern Michigan again to have her photograph our next adventure!
Erika is simply amazing. We had both our engagement photos and wedding photos done by Erika and her assistant. They were creative, fun, professional and truly talented. We LOVED how our photos turned out. She has a great personality and we felt so comfortable with Erika. She totally know what she is doing and not only takes pictures, but helps to make your special day the best day ever! Thank you Ericka!
Erika was beyond our wildest dreams! She goes out of her way to get to know you, make you feel comfortable and was as fun and easygoing as you can only hope your wedding photographer will be! She's amazing to watch! She snaps pictures at rapid fire, captures the most beautiful moments, and sees a potential shot and sets it up in zero time flat. We only had an hour for pictures between the ceremony and reception and Erika was able to make sure everything was covered! We are beyond thankful and blessed that Erika was part of our day!
Do not hesitate to contact Center of Attention Photography. Erika is a true artist of her talent. She is so creative and the photos are priceless. In fact the pictures turned out so great, I'm having a hard time figuring out what pictures to hang up. She is very professional and lots of fun at the same time.
Erika was absolutely amazing to work with. She is so much fun and incredibly easy to get along with. She really put my husband and I at ease and made the whole process a blast! She is always coming up with new and creative ideas so that your engagement and wedding pictures are unique to you and don't look like any one else's. She is also incredibly efficient. She knows what she wants to do and gets it done quickly but with high quality. I would not hesitate to pick Erika again if I ever needed pictures done for something else. I couldn't have dreamed of a better photographer. If you were to pick Center of Attention, you would have no regrets and you will be left with amazing pictures to remember your most special day!
We had Erika for our wedding in Charlevoix Michigan at Castle Farms. When we met for our initial consultation we mentioned we were interested in an Alice and wonderland themed wedding. Needless to say Erika really helped us run with the idea and even brought us a couple of Bunnies for us to take pictures with! Erika really listens to what you want and delivers it to you. I can't say enough about how awesome of a job she did (we love our photos!). Oh, one more thing I can't believe how efficient she is. We took so many pictures in such a short period of time and were able to make it to socialize with our guests at the cocktail hour in time!!
Erika is always a blast to work with. She is very easy going, and seems to enjoy what she does a great deal. Some photographers leave a pile of equipment lying around out in the open, Erika does not do that. She is very respectful of the cleanliness/decor of each room, and takes great care in not cluttering it up. I look forward to working with her in the future!
I can't imagine anyone else capturing my life memories. From a boudoir session, to engagement then wedding, I cannot wait to have my next event shot by Erika! Every time I get to see the images I am overwhelmed by excitement and happiness! All of her hard work and dedication shows in her photos. I can't wait for my next photo shoot with her!!
Couldn't be any happier with how our engagement and wedding pictures turned out! Erika is an amazing photographer! You will not be disappointed!
Erika has taken many pictures for me and of me, and every one of them have been amazing. She always accommodates request and has that special touch of finding the right pose. Her ideas and creativity are among the best.
COA did my boudoir photos. She visioned my ideas of a "firefighter theme". She is very caring and would totally do more photo shoots with her!
I found Erika through friends who had their family pictures done by her and instantly fell in love with her work. She did our engagement pictures as well as our wedding pictures and we could not have been more impressed with her and her work.
She is genuine and one of the nicest people I know!
Her love for photography and her love for the people she works with is displayed through each of her images.
You could not go wrong with having her as your wedding day photographer or for any other occasion you made need pictures done for!
Erika does a beautiful and personal job of making every moment special. She takes every job she does to heart. From our engagement pictures to our wedding turned out amazing. Everyone is our wedding felt so personable and each moment was captured. Nothing was missed from laughs to cries.
I have personally worked with Erika for over three years on weddings. As an event professional it is very important to find vendors I can trust time and time again. Erika is that and then some! Her photos are always creative, skillfully edited, and her personality is fun, entertaining, and professional. I can't recommend Center of Attention Photography enough!
Erika is beyond excellent at what she does. This is a seriously passionate, talented and creative individual on so many different levels. I have had the opportunity use her services on multiple occasions and she never ceases to amaze me.
If you are looking to have someone how is not afraid to step outside the box and push for incredible shots, this is her. She will not disappoint.
Erika was incredible! She went above and beyond for our wedding. We had an Alice in Wonderland themed wedding and she came up with fun and whimsical ideas. She even brought two bunnies to the wedding so we could have a photo shoot with them. Working with Erika was an incredible experience. She was professional, quick and creative. It was such a relief to have someone I could trust on such an important day. Receiving our photos in the mail was so exciting, they are beautiful and unique. My main concern with wedding photos in general was that they would be boring and generic, luckily that is nothing I have to live with for our photos. Everyone who sees them raves about how fun and gorgeous they are. I could literally go on forever about what an amazing photographer and person Erika is, I highly recommend choosing Erika for your photographer, not only for your wedding but for any professional photos you need.
Erika did our engagement and wedding photos and I can't believe some of the shots she took. She has an eye for the unique and I can't wait to see all of our wedding day ones. We also live out-of-state from where we got married and she was great working with our schedule and planning things with us. Taking hours of photos was never more fun!
There are not enough stars to rate Center of Attention Photography! Her photos speak for themselves. They are the most beautiful pictures I have ever seen and there was NO question after I saw her work who I would hire for our big day. She was incredible working with our very large, boisterous bridal party as well! I was so thankful for her tips and for her gorgeous, unique ideas. Erika pours her heart and soul into each and every wedding she does. She takes her time to get to know each couple and it shows! I am beyond grateful for having her capture each aspect of our wedding day. I would HIGHLY recommend her to everyone!
Erika (at Center of Attention) is simply amazing! She was able to capture special candid moments; all the while, organizing a long list of requested shots. Erika was professional and courteous. Her creativity gave us many unique pictures that we will forever cherish!
Erika captured our very special moment in time beautifully! She is very creative, has a great personality, makes you comfortable, and you can tell that she is passionate about her work. It was very difficult picking out pictures to hang in our house because they are all great. Erika also took our engagement which were amazing as well. I cannot wait to see Erika again!!!!!!!
Erika was the best to work with, she was professional and friendly. Our formal shots were flawless, and the reception was captured beautifully. But, hands down my favorites were the casual and intimate moments she managed to capture among our loved ones, things we didn't get to see in the bustle of the day. I would highly recommend Center of Attention Photography to anyone. Thank you to COA for capturing our special day.
I couldn't be happier with my photos and my experience with Center of Attention Photography! I worked with both Erika and Amanda. They really put you at ease and help you feel relaxed during your highly emotional and exciting day!
My groom and I did a first look and they were able to capture our emotions in a way I didn't think was possible! We were even able to do the photos on my dream wedding photo list, like pictures in the hall all decorated, before the ceremony.
COA captured getting ready, the first look, the ceremony on lake Michigan, Me & my groom leading a march to the reception, the reception decorations, all the special dances, the cutting of the cake, and so many other special moments!
Erika is a natural at editing and she provided files of our favorite photos edited in different ways and in different tones. My wedding had a vintage, shabby chic feel which Erika was able to convey in her editing style.
I highly recommend Center of Attention Photography to all couples looking for a down to earth, fun, energetic, talented and amazing photographer!!
