breathtaking • moments • captured
When it comes to your wedding day, the right photographer is VITAL. You need someone who will be making you laugh and smile through every moment, and that is exactly what you will get with me! I love cracking jokes and making sure everyone is comfortable, because it's a celebration and we all need to have fun! After all, I will be by your side more than anyone else through the whole day (other than your new husband or wife!) so it is so important to have someone you trust and truly know that you will have fun with. I love getting to know my couples beforehand, as the details and the love you have for each other is what I will be capturing through the entire day! Getting to know your personalities and see you together helps me be able to capture the moments that will be the most important to you both!
After the dress and tux are put away, the vows have been exchanged, the cake has been cut and flowers have been preserved, after everyone's danced the night away and gone back to their lives, your images will be what you will have to hold and look at forever. Your wedding story and love for each other will be retold all over again through your wedding gallery that you can turn into an album, portraits on the wall, and whatever else you choose to do with them!
These are more than just photos; These are memories that will last a lifetime.

Before we can do anything, you have to reach out! This can be done through a contact form found anywhere on my website! Once I receive your inquiry, I will reach out and gather some information from you; this is where we start getting to know each other and making sure I will be a great fit for capturing your wedding day! Trust is super important in these situations, and I truly hope you find that you can trust me 100% with this responsibility!
1. Say Hello
2. get your wedding date on my calendar!
As soon as we talk and you decide I am the right fit for you and your wedding, get your date booked and saved on my calendar! Most couples do this as soon as they're engaged and choose their date, even if they don't have the venue picked out yet, just so they're SURE they have me ready and waiting! There is only one of me and wedding dates fill up fast, so definitely make sure you book and get on the calendar sooner than later!
This is when your retainer will be paid and the contract signed so you're locked in and no one else can take that date anymore!
3. Engagement Session
Once your date is booked for your wedding, then comes one of the fun parts - celebrating your engagement! You're only engaged for so long, so let's have some fun celebrating!
I am based out of Youngstown and there are some gorgeous locations around here, but I am fully ready to travel to you to go to your dream location for your gorgeous engagement session!
The time between your engagement and your wedding is VITAL to ask me whatever you want! This will be where we'll gather as many details as we can before your wedding day so we can be as prepared as possible, and know each other as good as we can before I spend the entire day by your side! I will ask you questions and help you set up a good timeline for photos, and when your wedding day comes we'll be ready to do this thing!
3. ask me Anything
WE MADE IT! Are you ready?!
I will be by your side all day long, capturing every big and little moment that happens during your wedding day. No more questions, just you and your SO there, present and having fun enjoying one of the biggest days of your lives together, and me capturing it all!
4. WEdding day!
Once your wedding day is over, I will be working tirelessly to make sure your images are perfect for you! I know, I know, the anticipation will be killing you! My turnaround time is approximately six weeks, but you will be kept in the loop the entire time on when to expect them to be ready for you!
I can't wait for you to see all your gorgeous images and relive your big day for years to come!
And finally, CONGRATULATIONS NEWLYWEDS! I hope you two have a long, happy, healthy, beautiful marriage! <3

Make sure that you are choosing the right photographer for you, as everything else gets put away after your wedding day, but your images from your wedding will be looked at for years to come. With that being said, I can't wait to work with you!
Also, please be aware I do offer payment plans for all my couples, so if this is something you need more information about don't be afraid to reach out!
I have nothing but great things to say about my experience with Erica! She captured my wedding day PERFECTLY, and she exceeded my expectations. She was very professional, personable, and was a great hype woman during our portraits; she took the time to make us feel confident and comfortable. She was on it the whole time and went above and beyond! Throughout the whole process from booking, to getting my photos back she has been great with communication.
I started getting photos back much quicker than I was expecting, and they are absolutely beautiful!! I highly, highly recommend booking with her!

Our wedding was the absolute best day, and Erica captured every second of it perfectly! I can’t stop going back and staring at my wedding photos because they turned out so beautiful. Everyone had so much fun working with her and she made everyone laugh. I have nothing but great things to say about her! She made us feel so comfortable and confident all at the same time. She’s very professional and is so amazing at her job! Not only does she take breathtaking photos, but she took the time to get to know me and my husband. She wanted to know our story, that way she can capture our day perfectly! She really cares about her clients and is there for them through the whole journey. I can’t wait for her to capture more wonderful moments in our lives. She is hands down the best photographer I’ve ever worked with, and I will continue to work with her in the future! We will treasure our photos forever!

Erica was honestly so amazing! She was very helpful with a stressed bride on her wedding day. With random hiccups that happened, Erica was right on it and was able to help even when it had nothing to do with her. She cares so much about her clients and remembers them even after 2 years. She honestly made my wedding day a dream come true! She was able to capture all of the love from that day and I’m eternally grateful.
