Timeless Photographs for Every Adventure
Highly recommend Erik!! He's very professional and quick to respond to any messages and answer any questions in detail. He's patient and responsive and does great quality work! We had Erik do our engagement photos and we used many different spots in our location to get a variety of photos and poses. I was worried I would be too critical about those photos but in all honesty, there were so many moments Erik captured for us that I love! We decided we wanted Erik to do our wedding photos next year too because he not only is a good person and easy to work with but also provides quality photos! With a very fast return on the photos, too! Thank you Erik!!

Erik has a great personality and was wonderful to work with. We had a large group with four family units, but he managed to get some excellent shots of all of us. He has a knack for photographing kids and younger teens. Would recommend!

Erik is so amazing to work with. I sent him pictures that I found on pinterest that really touched my heart and I wanted to try to recreate at our wedding. He made note of every single one and asked many times throughout the night if there were any other photos we wanted besides the ones he professionally captured. He loves what he does and is so very good at it!!! He is extremely responsive and very easy to work with. I 100% recommend Erik for any and all special moments you would like to capture and have forever!!!

Erik made two awkward people look good in pictures, and actually have fun doing it. He listened to our ideas of what we wanted our photos to look like, and combined his expertise to give us a great portfolio! We have so many great photos to choose from, it’s been hard to choose only a few to use for our stationary and such! We have received so many compliments on our photos. Thank you Erik!

About Me
Wedding and Elopement Photographer
Eau Claire - Wisconsin
When I reflect on what has shaped my photographic style, I find that exploring the natural world is at its foundation. After all, it was the calling that brought me to my first camera as I sought to capture the thundering waterfalls and spectacular starry skies I so often visited. Naturally (pun intended), landscape photography became one of my greatest passions.
But somewhere along the way, I began photographing people on my journeys which have taken me across the United States, Canada, Germany, France, Iceland, and Austria. And now I'm embarking on a new journey: preserving memories and moments with the people that shape us as completely as the world we are fortunate enough to inhabit. So as you begin your journey with the person you want to spend the rest of your days with, let's take some time to go somewhere beautiful and I'll capture whatever special milestone you are celebrating.

My Promise as Your Photographer
For most of us, being in front of the camera can be an uncomfortable experience (exactly why I prefer to be behind the lens rather than in front of it!). We spend so much time worrying about what to do with our hands or trying to coax out the smile that we are too embarrassed to admit we practiced in the mirror that inevitably our photos look nearly as awkward as we were feeling.
I know this feeling all too well which is why I understand just how important a photographer that can make you feel relaxed really is. We all look our best when our smiles are natural and a result of a good joke or the playful interaction between significant others or family members. Because of this, I love to capture candid images. But I also know a few tricks to help you feel relaxed for the few posed images we'll take.
Let me know what type of session you're looking for and we'll fast track the booking process to make your session as stress-free as possible.
