Eric Swanson's work is nothing short of stellar. We have hired him several times, and would recommend him at the drop of a hat for anyone requiring professional photography.

Eric is an exceptional visualizer and problem solver who is very efficient and works well with people. I love designing with his photos as they are top notch and uphold a high aesthetic. I always know going in that his images will be ready to go into my layouts without enhancement. He's truly a pleasure to work with. More...

As Assistant Editor of Stereophile magazine, I had the great pleasure of working with Eric Swanson for over 13 years. Eric's outstanding photography has had significant impact on the magazine's distinct look and feel. Eric always successfully coaxes beauty from the most demanding objects (in the case of Stereophile, these are often large, heavy loudspeakers and other unusual stereo components), and he does so with an intimate understanding of the magazine and its readers. Eric is careful, dedicated, and the perfect combination of friendly and professional--qualities that are as important to coordinating shipping logistics as they are in poring over every possible angle, highlight, and shadow. He invariably exceeds expectations. Working with him is easy, satisfying, and a complete joy. Highest recommendation. More...

Put simply, Eric is a pleasure to work with. He created a portfolio of inspiring imagery for an upscale hotel website redesign in which I participated. Over the course of several photo sessions, I found Eric to be thoughtful, patient, responsive and well-prepared with a thorough understanding of our goals. His depth of experience gave him the ability to showcase the various facets of the hotel in a singularly attractive and effective manner. His technological expertise allowed him to offer alternatives from which we were able to quickly select the most representative images, and our project was completed on time and at budget. I would welcome the opportunity to work with him again and am pleased to recommend him highly. More...

Meeting new people and the challenges of producing good work in sometimes less tha ideal situations. Having a creative job and making my clients happy.
