Erica Streelman Photographer

hotography. I have always loved photography, and had an idea of my likes and dislikes when it came to photography. I had some criteria that I hoped I would find in a wedding photographer. I have always followed a lot of photographers on social media, and I have a lot of different styles that I like. I spent weeks researching photographers. I made an excel spreadsheet (slightly crazy, I know, but helpful) comparing the photographers that contained important information such as price, packages, etc. I came across Erica during my research. Her Instagram feed was beautiful. There were many eye catching images that led me to want to review more. I went over to her website, and found even more beautiful images. I knew I had to contact her to find out more. Erica was friendly, communicative, and professional from the moment I contacted her (three of my most favorite qualities in a potential vendor). She sent me her information, and gladly sent me full wedding galleries to review upon request. Tip for brides: always ask to see full wedding galleries so you can see the photographers work in its entirety. Anyone can post a beautiful Instagram worthy photo on their feed, but what about those family photos that you’ll cherish forever? You don’t want a photographer to skimp out on those. Erica sent me a full gallery and I was SOLD. Every image was beautiful. You could tell she puts her heart and soul into every single image she creates. Her film work and digital work is stunning. We had the opportunity to have an engagement session with Erica before our wedding. We loved getting to know her, and spend time with her. I expressed some things that I was self conscious about, and she was so attentive to that. The photos from our engagement session were so beautiful, and unlike any other session my husband and I had done before. She was such a joy to have around on our wedding day. She has such an ease about her that you can’t help but know everything will be alright. She is so couple oriented that you feel like royalty when you are being photographed by her. She had an amazing team with her. You spend the most time with your photographer on your wedding day that you want someone who brings you joy and a sense of peace and happiness. We absolutely loved all of our wedding photos. Each image was created with such care and looking at it brought me back to the day I looked at that full wedding gallery—she produced a beautiful collection where each and every image was created with purpose. I am so happy with our wedding photos. Erica is your best teammate and biggest supporter. She is the person you want with you throughout the entire process. In her, I found a new lifelong photographer, and more importantly, a friend. I hope to continue to have sessions with her to capture more of life’s important moments. Hiring Erica as your wedding photographer will be the best decision you make in securing wedding vendors. I highly recommend Erica!

she made us feel comfortable and like we had known her for years. She is kind, talented and so much fun to spend time with. She met with me before the wedding to talk about timelines and photo spots, and when it rained on our wedding day, so went to the venue early to scope everything out. She found perfect spots for photos that worked with the weather and went above and beyond to make our day absolutely perfect. Erica captured our love and pure joy in such an elegant and natural way, and we will forever cherish our photos!
