What can I say about Erika?!Erika was the photographer for our wedding in October 2019, but she was so much more on the day. She was so supportive to me (as the very nervous bride) and became an important part of the day, mixing in alongside our friends and family.She captured the day in the informal style we wanted - only the 'posey' shots we requested and then everything else was spontaneous and natural. The pictures we received document the day perfectly from bridal prep to first dance and everything in between.We met with Erika before our wedding and she carefully listened to all we asked for. Nothing was too much trouble at all.The service we received from Erika was faultless. From the pre-wedding communications, to the organisation and efficiency on the day through to the timely return of our photographs - beautiful edited and in both an online wedding album and a memory stick posted out to us.I want to thank Erika SO much on behalf of myself, my husband and our entire family. Everyone we have shared the images with has commented just how talented Erika is and how much she did justice to our day. An amazing lady - would recommend to anyone without a second of hesitation!

Erika was our photographer for our wedding in September 2019. From the start she was friendly and professional and took time to meet with us and make sure that we had the right package. On the day she was brilliant. We have been at weddings before where the photographer can seem a bit intrusive, but this was absolutely not the case with Erika, and she made everyone feel calm and at ease while clearly putting a lot of thought into her shots, with a nice mixture of posed shots and reportage style. The outcome was an exceptional set of photos which really captured the essence of the day. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone else. Thanks so much! More...

I booked in with Erika to have some headshots done and I really couldn't be happier with the results. I'm usually pretty camera-shy but Erika did a fab job of putting me at ease, mainly by making me laugh! I don't think I've ever felt so comfortable in front of a camera. Highly recommended. More...

Having our wedding photographed professionally, so that we would have a record of our memories to keep forever, was something that really mattered to us. It’s the photographs that will help us remember everything about the day in the years to come. After choosing the venue, this was probably what we felt was the next most important decision to make. When we started looking, a friend from work recommended Erika to us, so we got in touch with her to make an appointment for a chat.We’re both not the type to pose for the camera, and neither really are any of our friends and family. Whilst we liked the idea of capturing some group shots of family and best friends with us on our wedding day (when else is everyone all together?), we really prefer photos that show people naturally, having fun. We also had quite a large number of children coming to our wedding, which was another reason to look for someone who was good at taking natural/spontaneous photos.When we met Erika we both liked her straight away – she’s a really nice person, no airs and graces, just genuine and relaxed. When you’re looking for someone to photograph all the important parts of your big day it needs to be someone you can feel relaxed with – it would be no good having someone you’re not very comfortable with photographing you on your wedding day!Erika showed us some of the work she’s done before and chatted about where we were getting married, what our plans were, and what we wanted in terms of photographs. We felt like she really listened to what was important to us, and could tell she cares about what she does.On the day itself Erika was a star. She helped guide us with different bits and bobs, like how to cut the cake (not as easy as it seems when it’s 3 tiers and everyone’s taking photos!). She even found some sparklers for us as she’d had an idea for some photos of the two of us, outside with the fairy lights behind us. Several of our guests have commented since the wedding that they really liked her.She had the photos edited and ready before we’d even come back from honeymoon – phenomenally fast! Once we’d got back we had a look at them all and they’re really lovely! The usb stick which she put them all on is really nice to keep as well – wooden in a beautiful wooden presentation box.We’d definitely recommend Erika to anyone looking for someone to capture their wedding day. Not only will you have beautiful photos to remember your day by, but you’ll meet a lovely person! More...

Well what can I say, Erika is SO much more than a photographer. We don't live local and found Erika by chance and wow are we glad we did. From last minute supplier advice (the day before!) to keeping me the bride calm on the day when something went wrong she was simply amazing. Add to this the fact her photos are something else makes her one of s kind. She really listens to what you want and makes it happen. I couldn't have wished for any more than we got in her.
After one conversation with her you'll know she's the one for you.

We choose Erika to be our photographer last year, once we had found our wedding venue. We thought Erika's style and personality would really show of the amazing venue Aikwood Tower in Scotland- she really did not let us down.

On the day, Erika arrived in Scotland and was buzzing with energy as she started snapping away getting general shots of the venue. She fits into the wedding party and celebrations well and you barely even notice she is there at times.

Both myself and my husband are not the most photogenic, and usually hide from the cameras, but Erika quickly put us at ease. We choose Erika for the journalistic style as we didn't want to have lots of posed shots and we feel that we definitely made the right choice.

Erika manages to capture your personalities and the atmosphere. We are absolutely blown away by the images captured and couldn't ask for anything more.

As for the turn around for the images- she blew our expectations out the window. We received the initial images two weeks after our wedding while still on our honeymoon and the finished USB arrived the day before we returned from our honeymoon. We couldn't have asked for anything more!

Thank you Erika for being part of our day and for managing to capture our memories forever. You did an amazing job!
