Erik is detail-oriented, creative, and brings a smile while herding cats. I both attend and host events relatively frequently that incorporate professional photographers. Erik's quick turnaround, professionalism, and knack for making everyone look fantastic is second to none. He captured such wonderful candids of an annual family reunion dinner - and even organized a group photo with grace, patience, and had everyone laughing.

Erik was great to work with for our team headshots. My whole team agrees that he made the process easy, fun and made it feel natural. Let's be honest, taking headshot style pictures for the average Joe is usually not an enjoyable thing but Erik made it awesome. Thanks Erik!
