When we work together, you'll have a seamless, personalized experience. I work closely with each couple to understand their unique vision and preferences. Whether you're planning an intimate wedding, multiple events, or have other specific requests, I will work with you to ensure your photography aligns with your vision.
"Erica was everything we could have asked for in a wedding photographer— she was communicative, punctual, prepared, and very talented. We are in love with our photos. She also went above & beyond throughout the entire process (from hiring to photo returns) to make us feel special and celebrated. My wife and I will have our favorite photos proudly framed & on display for the rest of our lives."
Your wedding day is unique to you, your partner, and the love story that you share. Your photographs should be an authentic representation of that. Part of the AJV wedding experience is ensuring I learn about you and your wedding day vision, so that your gallery tells the story of both your wedding day and your personalities. From hearing who is a VIP in attendance on your wedding day, to knowing whether you are an introvert or extrovert, these details help me to deliver a wedding day experience that makes you feel comfortable and supported.
You'll receive a complimentary guide and welcome gift. Planning meetings will take place throughout your engagement to ensure we are aligned with your wedding day vision. Want to see our planning timeline?
After your consultation, you will receive your contract and invoice in one convenient package. A 30% deposit is required upon booking. Once completed, you'll receive a confirmation email and your wedding day will be officially reserved in my calendar.
After you submit your inquiry on the Contact page, I’ll reply within 24 hours with my availability and a link to schedule our initial consultation. This is a zoom meeting where we’ll get to know each other, go over your vision for your wedding day, and discuss which moments will mean the most to you both. We can also review any lingering questions you may have.
We recommend booking as early as possible, ideally 9-12 months before your wedding date. This allows us ample time to get to know you, plan your engagement session, and ensure every detail is covered. Popular dates fill up quicker, especially if you are getting married during "peak season"
You can expect to receive your edited wedding gallery within 4-6 weeks after your wedding day. A sneak peek of a few highlight photos will be available within 24 hours to share with your family and friends. For Engagement Sessions, your edited gallery will be ready within 7-10 days from your session.
Our photography style is a blend of candid, documentary, and fine art. We focus on capturing authentic moments and the natural beauty of your wedding day. We aim for a timeless, elegant look that reflects your unique personalities and love story. Our editing enhances the natural colors and light, ensuring your photos are true to the moment.
We take backups seriously. We use professional-grade cameras and carry backup equipment to every wedding. During the event, we back up your photos to multiple memory cards. After the wedding, we securely store and back up your photos on multiple drives to ensure their safety.
Yes, we love traveling for weddings! We’re based in Ohio, but are available for destination weddings and elopements. Contact us to discuss your specific plans and how we can accommodate your destination wedding.
