In a world of Photoshop, AI, and living for social media where faking perfection is the norm…
I choose to slow down, notice, and honor what’s real.
Because the authenticity and love you embody is what makes us human,
and being of service to your humanity is my role as the artist.

LITTLE DETAILS
✦ My family is from Kyoto, Japan and I can speak Japanese fluently
✦ I grew up consuming Japanese media instead of American movies and shows, so I’m uncultured when it comes to the classics (please share recs)
✦ My favorite video games are The Last Of Us series, Expedition 33, Bioshock series, and Fallout 4
✦ My favorite animes are Attack on Titan, Apothecary Diaries, and Kaiju #8
✦ For my astrology girlies: I’m a cancer sun, scorpio moon, and pisces rising
✦ My partner and I met on Hinge and have been together for over 3.5 years!
“Her communication was amazing and she made us feel so comfortable throughout the planning process and especially the wedding day.”
Erika was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is very professional and made sure to touch base with us before and during the wedding to make sure she knew exactly what our vision was. My husband and I are not the most comfortable in front of the camera so she helped give us clear and easy direction as well. We truly can’t say enough good things about her! - S+R
Taking photos together is all about slowing down, being present, and documenting two people celebrating and appreciating life together - everything else is extra
