What I Do

As a portrait photographer, I specialize in photographing real people. My expertise includes both studio and on location stills for head shots, personal branding, and documentary photos for events.

I understand how good photographs help you build trust and likability with your audience, whether you need a professional head shot for work or are trying to reach an audience through your personal brand.

From the initial consultation to the photo shoot to the image selection, Erik and his team make any of your concerns a thing of the past. Just with flattering poses for your figure and soft lighting, Erik is able to capture the most beautiful images. A touch of photoshop to get rid of any little problem areas, and you’ve now been promoted to model status.

About Erik

I started with photography as a teenager playing around with my mother's Pentax K-1000 and lots of rolls of black and white film.

It wasn't until the rise of digital cameras though that I started taking photography more seriously. Initially I was attracted to the technology, but I enjoyed the artistic side well.

Eventually I turned my photography hobby into a business after studying at the New England School of Photography. I went on to do weddings, family portraits, and anyone else who would get in front of my camera.

The one constant though has always been making pictures of people. I still enjoy it as much today as when I started.
