    Amazing Photographer

    Words can't describe how positive our experience was working with Erich and his team for our wedding. All the photos were extremely well taken. Everyone always told me that their wedding day goes by so fast, and they were NOT lying. Going through all the photos, I felt like I was reliving moments that I knew I probably missed because your girl had to go to the restroom a million times. LOL

    Aside from the photos itself, Erich and his team were so accommodating on all our requests. I know we were a bit delayed, but Erich made sure we stayed on time AND got all the photos we wanted. He was extremely communicative and professional before the...

    Perfect Photographer for Our Wedding Day!

    We couldn't be happier with Erich as our wedding photographer! From start to finish, he was incredibly helpful, funny, and personable, making everyone feel at ease in front of the camera. His warm, professional demeanor helped capture the joy of our day perfectly. The photos are beyond beautiful; he captured the essence of our wedding through genuine smiles and candid moments that truly reflect the happiness and fun we felt. Erich's skill in capturing these emotions brought our memories to life, and we're so grateful for his talent and kindness in helping make our day unforgettable. Highly recommend!

    We are forever grateful for Erich - 12/10 recommend!!!

    Erich was the most amazing photographer we could have ever asked for!!! We had worked with Erich as our photographer for both our engagement and wedding photos. His has this amazing quality of making you feel comfortable especially if you haven't had much experience doing photoshoots. He puts in an effort to get to know who he's photographing, asks fun questions, and makes you laugh. On our big day, he was so thoughtful, patient, and efficient - he scoped out the venue, found great spots to shoot, made sure we were on our timeline, and was able to effortlessly organize group photos. He captured everything we wanted for our big day and so much more, and we are forever grateful. Highly recommend!!!

    Amazing! Gorgeous! Fun! Yay!

    I really can't find the right words to describe how incredible our experience was working with Erich as our photographer for both our engagement and wedding photos. He's not only a pro with years of experience (and it shows in the quality of his work) but also delightful and fun to work with.

    Highly recommend doing an engagement session with him first, so by the time your wedding comes around you're practically best friends. Who text each other about the Clippers. True story.

    Honestly, for whatever your photography needs are, he is your guy. He will make sure you are taken care of, look good and enjoy yourself. He'll help you pick out outfits, knows how to...

    Best photographer

    Nothing other than positive words to say!

    From the first time we did a fall mini-photo session with Erich (before we were even engaged), we both knew that Erich would be hands down our wedding photographer. He is professional, experienced, and knows exactly how to make photo sessions fun! Erich knows how to work his magic and made us feel so comfortable and at ease.

    On our wedding day, Erich made sure to get all the shots that were important to us and made our bridesmaids and groomsmen feel super comfortable! Our wedding photos turned out just the way we wanted and family/friends had nothing but good words to say about Erich's artistic style. We will never get tired of looking at these photos!

    Hire Erich!

    Go with Erich, I promise you won't regret it.

    When you work with him you can tell he has so much experience because he asks you silly, random prompts to elicit the most honest, pure reactions. My husband and I did our engagement shoot with him and were soooo pleased with the results. We, admittedly, are pretty awkward in front of cameras but Erich made us feel so comfortable.

    We just got our wedding photos and our jaws dropped. We had a sense of overwhelming joy, nostalgia, and a little bit of sadness because the day passed by so quickly. We'll have these photos to cherish forever. I can't thank Erich enough for what he's done...

    The best engagement and wedding photographer

    My partner and I hired Erich for both our engagement and wedding shoots. Erich was very professional and made us feel instantly at ease and comfortable. We didn't feel nervous at all and had a fun time. We appreciated how he got to know us before the shoots and asked us our opinions and ideas and what we were looking for. During the shoots, Erich got excited about cool shots and it was wonderful to see his creative process. He had an eye for interesting shots and he was thoughtful about the best time of day for lighting, the colors in the background etc. We highly recommend him and would definitely hire him for future photo shoots.

    Erich is the absolute best!!!

    We had Erich shoot our engagement and wedding photos both of which turned out amazing, we literally couldn't stop sharing them with family and friends. The biggest thing that stood out to me about Erich occurred before we even decided to go with him. During our first Zoom meeting rather than getting into a sales pitch (like many others we talked to) of packages he offers / how he works/ his shooting style etc. he took the time to really get to know us. Our story of how we met, things we enjoy doing together, our backgrounds, families, and much more which instantly established a level of comfort that made our decision a no brainer.

    We loved having Erich as our photographer!

    Erich was recommended to us through a friend when we were searching for a photographer for our wedding. After meeting with Erich, we knew we wanted to go with him because his style of photography is very unique and he is very personable. He took time to help us brainstorm and incorporate ideas in our engagement and wedding photos. We had a blast when he shot our engagement session and wedding day. Erich made taking photos fun and comfortable by asking silly questions, which kept everyone engaged. Our photos turned out amazing and we are so glad we went with him.

    Absolutely Amazing!! Thank you Erich

    Erich is unlike any other photographer I have worked with. He was extremely professional, made us laugh the entire time (literally), and has such a creative eye. He made us feel extremely relaxed and took the most gorgeous photos of our us, our wedding, venue, family and friends.
    He also did not let the language barrier hinder his work with our videographer, they worked as a perfect team throughout the entire wedding. Thank you Erich!

    One stop shop for engagement and wedding photos

    Erich was recommended to me by another photographer who was unable to perform their photographer duties for my special day. Erich and his crew were the absolute best on my wedding day and helped capture the best moments of our lives that I will forever cherish. He and his team were professional and very personable. You will not regret hiring him on your special day. Thank you so much!!

    Best/Easiest Decision Ever Made!

    Man, this is going to be a hard review to write. Not because there is anything bad (because there isn't) but it's difficult to write all the many great things about Erich and how beautiful his pictures are. My girl found Erich through another couple that Erich shot with and she loved the pictures. As we were planning our wedding and assembling our dream team, she showed me Erich's work and it was an easy sell and an immediate yes. Little did I know, that was the tip of the iceberg.

    We first had to meet Erich which we did first through a zoom and there was already chemistry. If you don't know Erich, he has a...

    Amazingly skilled and very easygoing

    We found Erich on Instagram and absolutely loved his work. His candid shots of other couples made us feel like he fully captured their emotions. We really connect immediately with Erich when we had our first conversation with him. He was interested in our background as individuals and through that whole introduction he genuinely cared and it was apparent he was just as excited for our wedding day too. Erich is easy going and made us feel so comfortable moving forward with him. We love how direct he was on the actual wedding day he knew exactly want he wanted with each shot and while at the same time he gave us the freedom to pick our specific poses....

    So in Love

    Erich is AMAZING!! His photos are so beautiful and perfectly captured the romantic garden party vibe of my wedding. We were able to take full advantage of the golden hour and ugh, I can’t stop looking at the photos. He was also my photographer for my engagement and I’ve got to say, Erich really knows how to get wonderful and genuine photos from awkward subjects. My husband isn’t a fan of photo taking but Erich made the process easy and painless for him, and looked much less stiff than he usually does. Would recommend Erich a million times over!!

    Amazing Photographer! Highly recommend!!!

    I feel so lucky for the opportunity to work with Erich. Erich was able to capture the most beautiful family portraits. With the craziness of 2020 we had to cancel our wedding but we had wished to have pictures to share family and friends. Erich went above and beyond and the photos are incredible! Thank you for making my mom's birthday surprise extra special!! And thank you for bringing out everyone's real smiles!

    The Absolute Best

    Erich is amazing, helpful, talented and just all around a great photographer! I cant tell you how many compliments we got with his photos! He's also extremely professional, but knows how to make the entire process way less awkward. Erich makes you laugh and enjoy your time in front of his camera. He knows the lighting and angels that work the best! HIRE HIM! He's so reasonable for what we got and really honest with his ideas matching yours. He's willing to work with you on your dream and by far exceeds what you think they will turn out like.

    Part ninja, part wizard - he brings out the best in his clients

    Erich was a complete dream to work with! During the planning stage, he was easy to communicate with, flexible with our unexpected COVID changes, completely down to entertain our silly requests, and was both personable and fully professional. During the event, he's part photo ninja and part photo wizard. A ninja because he stays off your radar when you’re immersed in wedding activities, while still capturing great moments that you may not have even registered at the time; and a wizard because he can elicit the best reactions from you and your crew when it's time for a shoot, no matter what the situation is. He turned our pure awkwardness in front of the camera into a set of...

    Erich and his crew made us feel like movie stars! The team was an amazing group of people. They had an incredible vision on how our wedding would be shot. Working with Erich on details such as picking out places for our engagement photos was truly a fun experience. During the wedding Erich captured all our beautiful moments. Erich Chen Photography was the best decision my wife and I made.

    Creative and Engaged Photographer

    We hired Erich as our wedding elopement photographer. Although he was recommended to us by our wedding officiant, we did review other photographers. We liked what we saw when looking at Erich's previous work. My husband and I enjoy many expressions of art and photography is one of our favorites.
    Erich came through in a way that words cannot express. He is a wizard with a camera. The photographs speak for themselves! We were so impressed and blown away with the pictures! Not only the pictures, but working with Erich was a lot of fun! He did a great job directing us to make his vision come to life. Erich welcomed and used our constructive input. We came...

    Worth every penny!

    When we first started our wedding planning process, we knew that our main expense that we wanted to invest in was photography. Erich was actually the photographer for my best friends wedding and I saw how professional and fun he was while working. Not only that but the end results were gorgeous! I knew right away that I wanted him as my photographer. He was always easy to work with and had great communication throughout everything. I loved my engagement photo session and I know my wedding pictures will turn out amazing as well too. I can’t recommend Erich enough!!

    Best Wedding Photographer

    We had Erich photograph our engagement and wedding photos last October and it was the best decision we made! My husband and I can be awkward but Erich made us at ease and made sure all of our photos came out great!! Erich was so quick to respond to my questions and we received a lot of compliments from friends and family. He definitely has a lot of experience and we're so glad we picked him as our wedding photographer.

    1000% Satisfied

    Erich and his team are simply amazing. We had Erich do both of our weddings and we had so much fun working with him and his team. The pictures turned out perfect and we couldn't be happier with the results. We are able to look back at all the pictures and smile and laugh at every moment because he really captured our special day(s). We would highly recommend Erich without any hesitation. We can guarantee you that you will not be disappointed and enjoy every moment of it.

    Amazing photographer & team!

    Erich Chen is simply amazing.
    He takes beautiful photos and makes our wedding/ engagement pics more fun! We are such awkward couples and Erich & team immediately put us at ease. He is so easy to get a hold of, super fast at getting back to us with any questions we had, very professional and it's clear he's had so much experience doing what he does.
    I cannot thank him and his team enough for his work! His turnaround for photos is also amazing. We love love love our photos and now the biggest problem we have is choosing the photos we love the most because there are just too many beautiful ones!!!

    exactly what we were looking for!

    Hands down, best photographer EVER. I can't begin to tell you how amazing Erich is - and we are so happy and honored he shot our engagement photos as well as our wedding. Me and my now husband always feel awkward posing but Erich directed us in a way that made our pictures come out so natural and we had SUCH a blast shooting with him. He's efficient, pays attention to little details, and really cared about getting to know us as a couple prior to the shoot. We had problems deciding on which locations to use for our engagement photos but Erich asked us a few questions and gave us amazing suggestions based on where we first met...
