We hired Erika for our destination wedding in Las Vegas, NV over Labor Day weekend. My husband and I both went to Purdue in West Lafayette, IN and chose Erika to do our engagement photos. Erika and her husband Austin made us feel very comfortable while taking photos around campus. They were patient with us and had a lot of good ideas about posing and good feedback to make us feel more comfortable. She is very reasonably priced, got our photos to us in a timely manner and while very professional, also friendly. One of my favorite things about Erika is that she is calm and confident, this helped calm my nerves and to trust her. While looking for a wedding photographer in Vegas we just could not find anyone that had the quality of Erika while offering so much. Luckily, Erika and Austin were willing to join us in Vegas for our special day! We could not be happier with their work. They photographed our rehearsal dinner and showed up at noon the day of the wedding and spent all day with us up until the wedding and through the reception. My family loved having them around and appreciated how they put everyone at ease. Erika was always available through email or phone calls especially with helping me put together a timeline for the day of the wedding. She also helped me decide on whether or not we should do a 'first look' (I'm SO glad we did!). She has a wide variety of packages so that you can decide what is best for you. I think having a photographer that you can trust to take the right photos and to do what was discussed the day before the wedding is SO important. The actual day of the wedding there are too many other things going on to make sure the photographer is doing what they are supposed to and Erika is very competent and makes a GREAT team with her husband.
We also appreciate Erika's efforts to keep up with technology. She has online proofing for all of the guests at the wedding so that they can order prints or other products from her. She also just started designing apps for couples. The app is like having a wallet of photos so you can show off the wedding pictures whenever you want. My mom loves this so she can show the pictures to everyone on her ipad and iphone. It makes it super convenient so that friends and family can view the photos while on the go.
We can't say enough about Erika Brown Photography, this is by far one of our best decisions regarding the wedding. I would highly recommend using her! read more
