Hi, I’m Erika

I photograph families and newborns in and around the Lewis Center and Columbus, Ohio. I believe that the best photos come from real connection, not forced smiles.

I am a mom of two, so I know parenthood can be a wild ride. The meltdowns, the messes, the moments that make you laugh and cry at the same time. Raising little ones is wild, chaotic, and beautiful all at the same time.

My sessions are thoughtfully styled but never stiff. They’re relaxed, real, and centered around your family’s connection. I’ll gently guide you when you need it and step back when I see something unfolding naturally. I’ll probably chat with your kids like we’re already friends, and I’ll never rush anyone who needs a minute. This is a space where you and your family can be yourselves.

You don’t need to perform for the camera. You just need to show up and love on your people. Let me take care of the rest.

When you look back at your images, I want you to FEEL something. Not just remember how that time in your life looked, but how it felt. The way their arms wrapped around your neck. The way they reached for your hand without thinking. The way you looked at each other when no one else was watching.

If you’re looking for a photographer who values the real stuff, welcomes the chaos, and knows how to hold space for the love in your life, you are in the right place.

Let’s make something meaningful together.

Our Family
