Incredible!

Erika is the sweetest and best photographer around! She made the entire experience so amazing I just knew after meeting with her I wouldn’t have to worry about one thing the day of our wedding. She is so organized easy to talk to, and helped us with our timeline. She goes above and beyond her duties and actually scouted places for our first look and wedding party pictures to ensure we had the best photos possible! We worked with her from beginning to end and are so happy with our photos! Not to mention we had a sneak peek within a few days and had all of our pictures 2K+ Within 3 weeks!!!! You can’t ask for better service. She gives direction and suggestions and her attention to detail is so perfect! Trust me you are in good hands with Erika and her team. I’m so excited to use her for the rest of our lives together as she also does incredible family photos as well.

Bonus: Erika is up for any challenge you throw at her including unruly animals like our pup and cats!

Absolutely Wonderful!

Erika was absolutely wonderful! We met almost a year prior to the wedding, and she and I mapped out exactly what I was looking for. One thing which immediately put me at ease was Erika's experience in the industry. She was very familiar with the photo restrictions that were in place at the church where the ceremony was being held, and had recommendations for post-wedding family photos. As my wedding date approached. we were frequently in contact to discuss the day of timeline. She and her assistant were prompt and professional. In addition, I think all brides will be thrilled to know that Erika is amazing with kids. A few of my flower girls can be shy in certain settings, but Erika was able to get them laughing in no time! She turned around the digital photos in a few weeks, and once I selected the photos for the wedding album - she prepared a digital copy of the album for final approval before printing. THE PHOTOS WERE AMAZING! I highly recommend Erika, as she was so easy and an absolutely joy to work with!

Hands down, the best photographer in Chicago!

I had no clue where to start with finding a photographer for my wedding day. An old friend from high school, who is also Erika's right-hand photographer, recommended that I check out LuvEd. I knew I was going to book Erika the moment I received an email back within a few hours from her. She was timely, shared full portfolios of weddings she had done recently & was extremely well-priced for being an independent photographer. I was BLOWN AWAY! Her style was exactly what I was looking for - classic, elegant & natural.
My (now) husband & I are not the type to take a lot of photos, but Erika made us feel so comfortable & relaxed. I can't tell you how many compliments I still get on our engagement & wedding photos. Erika is the best!

Highly Recommend

Erika/LuvEd were AMAZING! Their photo work was beautifully done and they were helpful, kind and communicative from planning, to day-of-event, to follow-up. We were made to feel supported and were at-ease to enjoy our special day. Our bridal pictures included some of our littlest family members and they were perfectly patient with the kids! Costs were absolutely affordable and walked through pricing thoroughly with us and were flexible with our budget and requests.

Erika is amazing!

Erika is absolutely AMAZING! She was our photographer for our wedding in September. She was so easy to work with, helped me through everything, and took perfect pictures! I highly recommend her to everyone I know for not only wedding photography, but also for families and newborns!

Summer Wedding

Erika was amazing to work with throughout the whole wedding experience! She made my Pinterest wedding pictures come to life and made sure we captured everything we were looking for on our big day. She was responsive throughout the whole planning period and was extremely flexible with her schedule. She always worked around my schedule and no matter what your schedule was, she made it work. She is so sweet and easy to work with and I did not have to worry about a single thing on the day of my wedding. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer where you don't have to plan or worry about anything. Thanks Erika!

Erika is so great and easy to work with! She is very thorough and detailed and offered great advice throughout the whole planning process. As someone who does not like to be the center of attention or make decisions, Erika made us instantly feel comfortable through every event - engagement photos and wedding day. She knew when to take control and kept us organized and on time throughout the day, while also sitting back and letting us do our thing when needed. Her final pictures are gorgeous - I highly recommend her and can't wait to use her for future family photos!

Erika made the whole wedding photography experience incredible! She was very professional and easy to work with. She was able to capture our day perfectly. With so much going on for the bride that day, I was at ease knowing she was capturing all the perfect shots. She knows exactly what shots the current bride wants. We got our sneak peek of our wedding a couple weeks after our wedding and all our photos shortly after. She is incredibly fast and knows exactly how to edit the picture. Everyone is in love with our pictures and I have recommend her to so many friends. Thank you Erika for capturing the best day of our lives! :)

Erika is amazing and so very talented! From our initial meeting and after seeing so many of her past sessions we had complete trust in her to capture our wedding day and the photos came out even more amazing than we could have ever hoped for. There wasn't one part of our wedding that was overlooked or not caught for us to remember. Even with me, the bride, showing up an hour late for pictures she was still able to fit in everything we wanted.

LuvEd Photography is a creative and inspirational company. Erika and her 2nd shooter are real pros. You never notice they are there and they seem to catch every passing moment. People with certain expressions, a conversation, a smile and certain lighting angles are all captured as they are the brides 2nd and 3rd set of eyes that night. I've worked with Erika in some past weddings and was instantly drawn to her professionalism and personality. When I'm about to move forward with a specialty dance or get a change in game plan from the bride, Erika always seems to be around as she checks in with the DJ often. This check in is great because it keeps me from having to hunt her down and keeps the night flowing. For these reasons and many others I proudly endorse LuvEd Photography.
