Love Letters From Clients

  • "My experience with Lovers Locket photography was truly a dream! I'm usually kinda awkward when it comes to taking photos, but Erika made me feel so comfortable! She was incredibly patient and kind throughout the entire session. I had such a blast! When I received my photos, I was completely in awe! My mom and I loved how they turned out; they really expressed who I am as a person and made me feel even more confident. Erika was the absolute best!!!"

She was so sweet and worked well with me even when she could tell I was nervous, she helped me open up and feel confident which showed in the pictures. She even took care of the posing! She had a beautiful vision and we are just so grateful to have been able to work with her. She edited pictures immediately to get us sneak peaks and our photo album right away.
