A creative soul with a love for romance and all things travel.
My priorities in life are capturing unique love stories and filling up my passport along the way.
Greetings From Photography takes inspiration from vintage post cards from around the world.
Hi, I'm Erika.
Let's capture moments to
write home about.
IT'S SO NICE TO MEET YOU
IT'S SO NICE TO MEET YOU
There’s nothing better than taking in a Santorini sunset, drinking cocktails, and coming across a stray cat that curls up right at your feet for some love. If I could’ve brought them all back, I would’ve.
Greece
We rode camels through the Sahara desert & camped under the stars in the sand. And yes, that is the coolest sentence I’ve ever said about myself. The next night, my husband ordered camel at a restaurant and it was emotionally scarring for me. I’ll stick with my falafel.
Morocco
A bucket list item was snorkeling in the Great Barrier Reef. Definitely a “wow, life is amazing” moment. Another one of those moments was HOLDING A KOALA.
Australia
One of the highlight travels of my life was standing in front of Stonehenge. In London, I stumbled upon the art of one of my favorite artists in the Tate Modern & we saw The Harry Potter play. 10/10.
London
Visiting Hobbiton and drinking a pint in the Green Dragon truly was as magical as you’d expect. Plus, we hiked the base of Mount Doom in Tangariro National Park. Our other days were spent at mud spas and black water rafting.
New Zealand
Have I traveled back to Paris just for Disneyland? Of course I have. And I was rewarded with seeing the Northern Lights from the airplane window on my way there. Pure magic.
Paris
The best croissant I’ve ever had in my entire life was at a convenience store in Rome. There’s also amazing pizza, but man, I miss that croissant. I also got to have my Lizzie McGuire moment at the Trevi Fountain.
Italy
I was celebrating my anniversary in Spain when I got the Instagram notification that Joe Jonas commented on my photo. I’m not sorry that was the most memorable moment of the trip.
Spain
The craziest thing I’ve ever agreed to is go-karting on a freeway in Tokyo, while dressed as a Mario character. Tokyo Disneyland was amazing. But my favorite moment of the trip was holding hands with an otter!!
Japan
Scotland is not to be missed if you’re a big Harry Potter fan. There’s a ton of HP history in Edinburgh. If I could move abroad, it would be to St Andrews. The sleepy, foggy city reminds me of home.
Scotland
Visiting Christ the Redeemer was at the top of my travel bucket list. But my favorite moment was almost getting bitten by a toucan. Not to mention, I drank alcohol out of a coconut & coffee out of a cookie espresso cup.
Brazil
Picture it: you find a wedding photographer you LOVE & go to her Contact Me page. Everything is as expected until you notice the question: "Favorite Disney movie?"
Why do I ask every client this question?
I want a glimpse into who you are behind all the questionnaires and timelines. I love hearing your personal memories that are ingrained into your heart every time you watch it.
My favorite Disney movies? They're The Aristocats, Lady & The Tramp, Robin Hood, and Tangled.
But my go-to comfort Disney movie recently is Ratatouille. I love the belief that anyone can create, and you can create out of anything, right where you're at.

What Inspires Me
01
My Favorite Things
02
SPOILER ALERT, my #1 answer is my dog
When I'm editing your gorgeous gallery, you can find me in a local coffee shop sipping an iced latte or at home binge watching my favorite TV shows: The Office, Survivor, Friends.
If you ask my loved ones about my personality, I'm confident they'll describe my love for three things:
Disney
Disney has been a part of my life since the day I was born. I've seen every movie and have visited Disneyland over 150 times. I LOVE the euphoric feeling of magic that is intertwined in everything they create. That's the same magic that I look for in every wedding day.
Taylor Swift
The term "Swiftie" doesn't even begin to cover it.
How many times did I cry during the Eras Tour? We don't need to talk about it. I'll be your ultimate hype girl & bring all the upbeat, positive vibes to your day. & don't worry, I'll make sure to "use my best colors for your portraits"
Travel
My passport has stamps from 6 continents & 20 countries (& I'm just getting started!). I'll never pass up a chance to hop on a plane & explore somewhere new. I am a walking encyclopedia for travel tips. Want to elope in Europe but seems like an impossible dream? Let's make it a reality.
Behind The Lens
03
My job entails noticing everything. Let me assure you, I'll truly *see* you on your wedding day & I'll be your number one hype gal. I want to support you, capture beautiful photographs, and stay out of your way so you can enjoy the partay.
Yes, there are checklists & cousins you need to remember to get a photo with. But don't worry, all those details are literally my job. I arrive to your wedding prepared with all the details & info on hand.
We'll make sure to get those formal family shots that will be on your grandma's fridge forever. But mostly, I'll be documenting how everyone felt. The love-filled glances. The giant smiles on the dance floor.
Your love story is beautiful & unique. Your wedding photos will transport you back to that day & those feelings forever.
ALWAYS STRIVING TO BE AUTHENTICALLY ME.
My Philosophy
04
A huge part of why I love being a wedding photographer is the ability to enter into a couple’s best day and help in any way that I can. A wedding is a beautiful day because it brings together so many loved ones, all there to support YOU. It is the most special, intimate day of your life... which means there are a thousand moving pieces and you shouldn’t have to worry about all of them yourself.
I care because I’ve been there. Each wedding I think to myself, “What would I have needed in this moment on my wedding day?” and then I do that.
Not sure what the flow of your timeline should be? Shoot me an email. Spill something on that gorgeous white dress? I always carry Tide to Go pens. Want a break from photos and need someone to hold your crying baby? Sign me up.
At the end of it all, I'm here to create a magical day with you.
"I FEEL THAT THERE IS NOTHING MORE TRULY ARTISTIC THAN TO LOVE PEOPLE."
