Book Eric, you won’t regret it!

If you are looking for an all star wedding photographer look no further than Eric! We met him at a bridal expo early in 2025, and after looking at SO many different photographers, I knew immediately Eric was the one to hire! Not only is he personable, his work is phenomenal! He captured not only our wedding but our engagement shoot, and got the vibes to a T! Prior to the wedding we had multiple zoom meetings to discuss wants, who all would be in attendance, and important points. On the big day, Eric showed up almost an hour early for an already long day. He kept us on track, set appropriate boundaries for family that needed to be set, and captured every moment! Multiple family members made comments about how wonderful he was to work with and how professional he and the 2nd photographer were. Not only all of that, but the pictures he delivered were AMAZING! Couldn’t recommend Eric more! Definitely have confidence when you book him!

Dedicated, Talented, Creative, and a Joy to Work With

I had the pleasure of working with Eric during a styled shoot at The Heathman Lodge on August 12, 2025, and the whole process was truly wonderful. From start to finish, Eric was reliable, creative, and such a joy to collaborate with. He is responsive, easy to communicate with, and goes above and beyond in his dedication.

We even worked together to go over different design proposals, and the discussions were always pleasant and smooth. He also joined me and the model at the bridal boutique—not only to help choose the dress, but also to return for the fitting. That level of commitment speaks volumes about how invested he is in his craft.

On the day of the shoot, Eric arrived prepared and on time, even bringing a set of walkie-talkies to make communication seamless. He thoughtfully designed overlays to elevate the photos and worked with warmth and flexibility, which put everyone at ease and made the collaboration fun.

Eric is a talented, creative, and supportive photographer with an incredible eye—knowing the best angles, corners, and lighting to capture elegant, beautiful photos. His creativity and professionalism shone through every step of the way. I highly recommend Eric Doolin Photography to anyone looking for a dedicated and supportive photographer to capture beautiful memories for their events.

Eric: Capturing Every Special Moment - with Professionalism, Kindness, and an Abundance of Joy!

There are not enough words to express how thankful we are for Eric and the way he captured our wedding!!

During every single conversation — he was warm, attentive, and so easy to connect with! From moment one - it was like chatting with a wonderful friend. Something about Eric just puts you at ease - which is SO important when considering a wedding photographer and all the stress building up to and on that one big day.

We also did an engagement shoot with Eric a few months before the wedding. This was a game changer that gave us the confidence to be ourselves in front of the camera, which made the photos from our wedding day feel effortless, genuine, and so full of joy. He even made the time to come out for a site visit prior to the wedding! So many great things to say about him, his professionalism & attention to detail.

On the day itself, Eric and his second shooter were phenomenal. They blended into the day so seamlessly, bringing calm energy, kindness, and so much positivity. Guests during the wedding kept telling us how friendly and professional they both were and how comfortable they felt around them. That’s such a rare and special gift, and it showed in the photos—every shot radiates love, and happiness.

As a queer couple, we felt truly celebrated and supported, not just photographed. That meant everything to us. We will forever treasure these photos and cannot wait to work with Eric again in the future. Choosing him as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.

Oh and big tip!! Eric helped us put his photo album upgrade option on our wedding registry! Such a freaking great idea for guests to put money towards that which we will have to look at for the rest of our lives!

August 2025 Wedding

We feel SO lucky to have had Eric Doolin as our wedding photographer! We had met Eric at a Bridal Expo where there were dozens of photographers being showcased, but Eric's photos and style stood out to us completely. His photos were breathtaking--they included everything from small, personalized details to big, sweeping, grand moments. And from our very first meeting, Eric made us feel completely comfortable and confident that our memories were in the best hands.

Leading up to the wedding, Eric was an excellent communicator. He was always quick to respond, patient with our questions, and incredibly helpful in walking us through the timeline and photo planning. His guidance made the process so smooth and gave us peace of mind knowing everything was handled.

On our wedding day, Eric did more than just capture beautiful images—he reminded us of the love we share and made that the focus throughout the entire process. He encouraged us to slow down, be present with each other, share some giggles and memories, and let our connection shine through, which made the experience (and the photos) even more meaningful. He blended seamlessly into the celebration—always in the right place at the right time—capturing every laugh, tear, and little moment in between.

His eye for detail is incredible. Eric didn’t just take photos; he told the story of our day in the most beautiful, authentic way. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the wedding all over again, and we will treasure these images for the rest of our lives.

Beyond his artistry, Eric is such a sweet and caring person, with a calming and comforting presence. We are one of those couples that freeze up and don't know what to do with our hands as soon as there's a lens in front of us, but not with Eric. He had prompts and poses at-the-ready to help capture the most stunning photos. We have never felt more beautiful than in these photos, truly. Weddings can be hectic, to say the least, but he had a way of making everything feel relaxed and fun and always met us with the kindest energy.

If you’re looking for a photographer who is talented, professional, and truly cares about his couples, look no further than Eric. We couldn’t recommend him more highly!

Book him! Book him! Book him!

As a wedding planner I LOVED working alongside Eric! I've been a planner for 4+ years now and have worked with countless photographers but Eric is in my hall of fame, without a doubt. Throughout planning process, he was so easy to work alongside and I felt like we were in sync every step of the way. Then come wedding day he followed the timeline to a T and was super communicative with myself and the rest of the vendor team. He made the day so easy and super fun. Not to mention the photos turned out perfect (duh). If you're considering booking him, do it do it do it!!

We would book Eric over and over again!

We met Eric at a wedding expo while looking for vendors for our wedding. We were drawn to his photos and he explained how he does a combo of digital and film photos. He was doing a drawing for a free engagement shoot and we wound up winning.

For the engagement shoot we chose Latourell Falls. Eric directed us and asked us questions to get to know us and our style. Before we even got the photos back we knew immediately he was the photographer we wanted for our wedding day.

Eric was extremely helpful in helping us plan photo shots we wanted for our big day. He was organized and provided tools to help us ensure that we got photos with all of our guests.

Eric and his assistant Jason took so many amazing photos for our wedding. We cannot thank them enough for capturing everything and just being absolutely fantastic to work with.

Eric's work truly speaks for itself with the amazing quality of the photos he takes. We cannot recommend him enough for any photos you may need and we look forward to using his services again in the future!

Top Notch Wedding Photos!

Eric was the ideal package when it came to our wedding day photos. He is punctual, professional, and easy to work with. He has great communication skills that put you at ease on what can otherwise be a stressful day. On top of his professionalism, he produced such great photos in a really efficient manner. His experience and expertise allowed him to lead us and family through what we felt was a thoughtful plan and approach to the whole wedding photo process. The photos speak for themselves, and Eric clearly knows how to bring out the best in the photo subjects and settings. Eric is, without a doubt, worth the investment (which is incredibly fair)!

Best Photographer for Price (Seriously)

My wife and I spent two years planning our wedding, and we were nervous about who would photograph the big day. We ended up going with Eric, and have no regrets at all.

Not only was he a pleasure to be around, but the pictures all have an organic energy that truly captured the magical day in a way that doesn't feel forced or awkward. I don't fully know how he did it, but I'd recommend Eric to anybody for any occasion.

6/5 Stars,
Thank you for the memories, Eric!

Eric Exceeded our Expectations!

You know, everything about planning a wedding seems a little overwhelming. Having never gotten married before, it was hard even to know where to start. Now that it is over, I have a few things that I would have done differently, but changing my photographer would not be one of those things.

Eric was fantastic, plain and simple. Before our event, we talked a bit about shots my (now) husband and I wanted and ones we wanted to avoid. On the day of, Eric was prompt—he was at the venue before we arrived. He was great at guiding us into poses; he let us have our little moments and did a brilliant job capturing those. Our ceremony was right around sunset, so as it went on, it got dark, and Eric was ready for that.

Having a professional photographer at our wedding allowed us to let go and enjoy one of the biggest days of our lives. We now have gorgeous photos that we can look at forever, and I am beyond grateful that Eric captured our special day. If we ever need a photographer again, it’ll be Eric!

An Absolute Delight!

Eric made our wedding day so stress-free and comfortable. We're not generally comfy in front of cameras, but we always felt ourselves when working with Eric. He took the time to get to know us personally, came to the venue with several of our vendors to help coordinate, and made sure the big day was captured perfectly. I already had great expectations for Eric and he still blew them out of the water. Thank you Eric for all that you do - your work is beautiful.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
