These are just wonderful.
I love these pics! I wish her lots of luck with this endeavor.
Awesome photos! I love the two in the middle. The one with the two in the field and the two on the old car. Great Job!
I’m an ally, getting married this spring and I chose my photographer BECAUSE of his involvement in the LGBTQ community. Best of luck to you Erica, your work is stunning and I hope that you book tons of weddings!
Awesome!!!
I love you last photo with the red bicycle built for two.
Great selection – love the couple on the bike!
