About Me

I'm Erika! 

As a kid, I was always the one drawing, painting, and creating something out of nothing. I remember sitting down with my grandma creating art. Spending that time with her will always live in my memories. When it time to figure out what I was going to do with the rest of my life, I absolutely knew it was going to be art related. I originally decided I was going to go to college in Indianapolis, Indiana for graphic design. I figured I could actually make a career out of it. Unfortunately that was during the Great Recession and that kind of messed with some future plans. I looked at all the things that truly made me happy and eventually settled with something that pulled me back to my roots and explored my creativity. Photography.
While I was living in Indianapolis, I met my husband, Stephen, online. He was from Michigan, I was from Indiana. I eventually decided to move to Michigan with him after several years of dating. In 2017 he asked me to marry him in the Upper Peninsula on a little camping trip we took together. We got married the following year in November and it was a beautiful fall day with our friends and family in Allegan, Michigan at the Griswold Theater.
In 2017 I officially photographed my first wedding and started my business alongside going to school for Marketing. Since then, I have photographed so many couples and weddings and I truly feel it is my privilege to be able to photograph some of the most important life moments for people.
I have always struggled with ADHD (I was luckily diagnosed as a child) and anxiety, but that's one that I do not allow to define me and to control me. I have also found that it is a way I can relate to others as well. I also believe that my ADHD has been the cause of ability to be creative and I am very much happy for that.
