About Erika

My photography journey began in 2006, when I received my first film SLR camera—a gift that ignited a lifelong passion. Learning darkroom techniques taught me patience, precision, and the beauty of slowing down. Later, transitioning to digital photography gave me the freedom to explore more deeply—the emotion, the energy, the story behind every frame.
With a camera in hand, I’ve had the privilege of discovering new cultures, witnessing breathtaking landscapes, and meeting incredible people with stories unlike my own.
Photography has become my creative voice, a way to share stories that transcend words.
Through my lens, I strive to capture not just images, but feelings and experiences that inspire empathy, compassion, and reflection. My hope is that some of my work can offer a sense of calm and connection in a world that often feels chaotic. Each photograph serves as a reminder of the deep bonds between people, nature, and animals—and of the positive future we can create together.
I am a public health professional with a deep love for the ocean, animals (especially my pug), all things science,
and leading a plant-based lifestyle.
