If you want 100% traditional, run of the mill photos, don't use Erica. If you want spectacular, unique, fun, gorgeous photos, use Erica.
From our fun engagement shoot on Ohio State's campus and downtown to my surprise boudoir shoot for my hu...sband's gift - I've been nothing but impressed by Erica's work. No two wedding blogs look alike because her creative eye sees something different and unique in each couple. Our wedding was less than two weeks ago and I haven't even seen our images yet but I have no doubt they will be spectacular.
Erica was the very first vendor we booked for our wedding and I'm so glad I snatched her up because she has been top notch. From our initial, super-fast communications to our first meeting, I fell in love all over again - with her! She was very organized, prompt, courteous, and became a friend over the last 15 months. I found her on Instagram and have referred her to two friends because I just love her so much! I have no imagination or vision so I go with her flow and am blown away by what I see when I get my images back. From the engagement session and the boudoir pictures - just trust her. Do what she asks, trust her vision through the lens, and you'll end up with pictures you want to share with everyone and tell all your friends about. She has such a bright, creative future and is so deserving of her Best Of award this year. I never thought I'd willingly share my boudoir photos as I'm not 100% confident in my body, but she made me see a side of myself I never imagined and I'm happy to show (most - not all! Those are for hubby's eyes only!) my girlfriends my boudoir shoot and encourage them to do one for themselves. The photos are just as much a gift for themselves as it is for their husbands, trust me!
I'll be using Erica for all our pictures and will willingly drive 2 hours from home to have her capture our future important events in our lives. I can't wait to see our images and see how many people will use the best photographer and her AMAZING assistant Heidi in the future. Hands down best money spent will be of the photos we'll be hanging on the wall from our best day ever.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for the flexibility handling our wedding party and families. We got so many complements on how you were everywhere but barely noticeable at the same time (and no, it's not because she's so tiny! "Although she be but little, she is fierce") and getting shots laying on the floor, up above, and everywhere in between. Thank you for being accommodating and getting pictures with my Dad when things had to change last minute and adapting with us and capturing what will be some of our final moments with him. I will be forever grateful and so will our whole family for those pictures together. They are already so very special to me to have and I haven't even seen them yet.
Like I said, if you want ordinary, don't hire Erica.
If you want phenomenal in every aspect of a photographer (and friend, I guarantee you'll become friends!), hire Erica.
