Erik photographed our daughters wedding in what is not an easy venue, Howe Caverns, 10/19/19. The photos are amazing, emotions captured at just the perfect moment. So many special moments perfectly captured for us. I am so happy he came highly recommended to us, and recommend him to anyone considering working with Erik. You will be thrilled. Thanks Erik, it truly was a pleasure! More...

Erik is an extremely talented photographer with a great eye and attention to detail. My now wife and I hired him for our wedding and were absolutely blown away by the quality of his work, and so were our friends and family! He worked with us to make sure he got every shot we wanted for our engagement shoot as well as the wedding, and came up with quite a few ideas as well that we, our friends, and our families loved! He was professional from start to finish, very responsive throughout the planning phases, and made this part of our special day absolutely stress free. I highly recommend him! More...

My wife and I were beyond happy with the way Erik captured our wedding day. When you get married 156 feet underground you expect dark photos. Not with Erik. It was lights,camera,action. He was even willing to put in some extra travel time and go to a brewery with us to take some more photos. So if you are looking for a photographer who will go the extra mile (no pun intended) to make sure your experience is perfect, then Erik is your man. More...

We hired Erik just a couple of weeks before our wedding.

He was a pleasure to work with and a true professional from start to finish! More...

Erik was the photographer for our wedding and man on man he is great! Even late at night when we told him to go home because he lives about 45 minutes from where our venue was he stayed until the very end! He was a pleasure to work with and even got our final photos back to us in 1 month. He also has a reasonable price for all day coverage! We would recommend him to anyone! More...

The hardest working photographer I know - Erik has an incredible eye for photography, lighting, seeing the big picture. From family portraits to weddings, he’s able to capture moments that most wouldn’t even notice, preserving memories and precious moments. Very professional and able to wrangle kids to get the perfect shots! Super thankful for his talent! More...

We had to throw a wedding togerher in five weeks time because my daughter's fiance is in the Marine Corps. and so he has certain time constraints that we had to be able to work with in order to pull this wedding off! . We had our wedding at the powelton in newburgh in the chilly month of december. Erik did an amazing job on capturing special moments of the day! Never felt like he was intruding on our time at the wedding and he took amazing photos! Within 48 hours we had preliminary best shot photos.. and i have to say they came out beautiful!! Better than we ever imagined! Erik really added something special to the wedding with his own style of photography and we now have many memorable moments in time captured on film because of him! Would recommend him over and over again! Thanks erik! More...

Eric photographed our wedding for us. It was a last minute decision to have a photographer and he made himself available. I knew Eric was a great photographer as I have seen a lot of his work, but was still in awe of the level of professionalism during the ceremony and the reception, most of the time we didn't even know he was there . We were beyond shocked when we saw some of the pictures he captured and every picture was beautiful. It was so much fun looking through the pictures. We didn't even tell him what we wanted or expected, he just some how did it and got it all. Erik we love, love, love what you did for us. More...

I was so happy with my wedding pictures! He was super easy going: took suggestions and gave suggestions without being pushy. I heard horror stories of photographers bossing around brides/grooms and Erik was NOT like that at all. Best of all, he made a potentially bad setting (torrential down pour) and made it look beautiful. Super lucky! More...

Erik is a consummate professional and outstanding photographer. He snapped our August wedding, which encompassed three venues and two homes over an eight-hour period, and didn't miss a beat. He nailed the big spots, took great formals and, most importantly, captured those awesome spontaneous moments that make a wedding personally perfect. When Erik met with us, he noted that his goal was to document the day without intruding, be a fly on the wall, so to speak. He did exactly that.

And his photos are terrific. Erik sent us an immense amount of digital proofs along the way, allowing us to quickly share with family and friends who didn't attend the wedding. And he edited anything we needed, handing us our discs promptly. The shots are beautiful. He has a strong eye and is a master of manipulating light. Our batch of finals includes a handful of photos we instantly framed and hung.

Erik met with us at the beginning of the process, then checked in as we neared the wedding. I made final adjustments with him just before the weekend, and he was prompt and prepared for his shift. Our guests who had a moment with him loved him. We did, too.

Highest recommendation for wedding and event photography.

Erik has an amazing talent in capturing people at their best. He played with different ideas and made any scene work in a short period of time. Each of his photo is captivating with full visual effect that tells a story. Not all photographers are capable of doing that. But, Erik can.

Erik came to my house to take pictures of my 1 year old little boy. Erik had patience and did a great job following the baby around and dealing with a very tired baby. Erik used both artificial and natural lighting to get amazing photographs. I would use Erik again in a heartbeat to do family photography and was very pleased with his every aspect of the experience. From the way the pictures came out you would have thought he had a child very willing to pose and cooperate. Erik did a fantastic job!! :) More...
