Erika the Photographer

Erika the Photographer San Antonio based conceptual portrait photographer. From my camera to your walls, I provide the coolest pictures of you that you’ve ever had taken.

I am a San Antonio based native self taught photographer that has been behind the camera for 18 years. My clients have taken me all over Texas, to Vegas, California, and Kansas. Over the years I have honed my photography skills to the point that I practically never edit a photo any more. I have tweaked my camera skills to the point that I can shoot on location with just the natural light, get home

, upload my pics into the computer, spend maybe 10-15 seconds in post production by adjusting a few slides here or there, and then the pics are usually uploaded that very same night! Yes, you read that right ... and I'm even able to do that exact same things for my all day weddings! My brides and groom LOVED me because I would have their wedding day highlights showing on a big screen at the reception ... even if the actual ceremony just happened an hour ago! And buy the time their planes have landed to their honeymoon destination, all the highlights from the engagement, bridal portraits, wedding day fun would already posted online! Impossible you say? Not at all, if you know what your doing behind a camera, and believe you me, I have spent years of research, reading books & online forums, attending workshops & seminars, and learning all I can from other phtoographers in the field to get to be able to be that fast! So at the end of the day, I guess what I want you to know most about me is that I have built my business on being able to produce quality images that are real as well as unexpected; I make sure that all my clients are having fun and feel comfortable during their time with me; and because I have spent almost two decades perfecting my craft, I can wow my customers with some of the fastest turnaround they have ever seen in the industry! So please, pull up a chair, perhaps grab a bowl of pop corn, and take a look at my albums here ... it's gonna take you a while! And after that, when you are ready to invest in an artist, and not just a picture taker, send me a message because I'd love to work with you!!!

Today marks 6 months to the day when I first went to downtown San Antonio to capture images of the city just as it was shut down at the beginning of the pandemic. I’ll be revisiting many of the popular spots to capture new shots of what it looks like down here now. (Original gallery link I’m the comments below). And it does not fall on deaf ears to me of the news that also comes from the White House on this photo essay anniversary date. Surreal times for sure.

If you’ve been following me for more than a minute then you know I’m all about working with in camera magic more than post editing. Case in point, this fun throw back image was taken with my fun little tri colored filter ...Me thinks I need to play with this more often 😎📸

Still with the concerts of old playing in my mind, this image was captured many years ago in a quaint little lounge room in Sn Antonio. There are many times that I like to bust out my little Lensbaby to play around with but for this night, it was a tactical choice! No really ... how perfectly amazing did the use of this lens work for this shot! :)

There’s nothing quite like getting a chance to photograph bands from the pit. Here’s the lead singer from A Day To Remember pausing for effect in the middle of a song. Oh how I can’t wait for concert season to finally return. 😎📸🎸🥁🎼🎤
