ABOUT ERICA

I'm a hopeless romantic who loves Love! I cannot think of any better job than photographing Love everyday and am so excited to capture special occasions for clients. A wedding is an explosion of love between a bride and a groom, which is shared with their friends and family! Watching a new parent sit with their newborn baby and seeing the love they so intensely have for their child, LOVE! Photographing these moments is my gift and I'm committed to giving my clients the best photography possible of these ever-so cherished moments!

My style is simple. I tell stories through my photographs in an artistic, romantic way and I deeply cherish documenting moments for my clients. Photographs are their reminder of a special occasion, a moment in time and the LOVE that is present every day in ordinary things! I have an editorial/documentary style and my goal is to present photographs that are as true as possible, without being over-processed.

My inspiration is drawn from a variety of places; Travel, antique shops, galleries, museums and my observation of the ordinary life in the world! I love getting lost in a new city, discovering what's around the next corner, never knowing what colors, shapes and surprises await me.

Thank you for stopping by and seeing what's new! I would love to be a part of your next celebration and would LOVE to see what LOVE you have for me to photograph.

Happiness and Love to you!

Erica

Beautiful Woman! Maribeth Romslo, owner of Red Ribbon Studio

Probably one of my greatest thanks goes to this beautiful woman, Maribeth Romslo of www.redribbonstudio.com.  She’s been a shining and beautiful light for myself over the years. I’m constantly encouraged by her sense of friendship, overall self and consistent nature. I was more than flattered to photograph a few head-shots for her.

April 8, 2010 - 3:42 pm Erica Loeks - Gerri-Thank you for your very warm and sweet comment!! It was a pleasure meeting your daughters years ago through my friend Karly! Hopefully you and I will cross paths in the future.

April 8, 2010 - 3:22 pm Gerri Pletsch - Hi Erica, These two amazing young women are my daughters, Kelli and Kristin. In the past, their father and grandfather were portrait photographers thus we've had many pictures taken of our twins over the years. These images of yours are as equally wonderful! Thank you so much for including them in your project. You are correct in saying that they are very much alike, yet so very different. I will cherish these images forever! Their mom - Gerri Pletsch
