About Erika Black Photography

Erika Black Photography

Owner/Photographer

Hello! I'm Erika and I work closely with my husband, Stephen working with couples all over Michigan to create beautiful and unforgettable art for their wedding day. My focus is to slow down and really make everything intentional for you. We primarily work in the Metro Detroit area, but are willing to travel all over Michigan and beyond! Truly the best way to contact us is through our website.

My focus is legacy. I don't want you to just get an online gallery just for you to download them to a hard drive and then they sit there for years without you looking through them ever. You will also receive an album with your wedding day package then you can upgrade that and purchase carefully designed wall art that will look stunning and unforgettable in your home. Each wedding is carefully planned out and timeline is key for me to work with you properly to provide the best experience I can.

    I truly will never be able to find better words to express my gratitude towards Erika! She was actually contracted through a third party for my wedding this past May. Leading up to the wedding, she was so communicative, knowledgeable, and honestly just so relaxing. She took the time to gather the type of photos we were after, what we wanted focus on and just who we are as a couple and as individual people. The day of the wedding, she was EARLY. Immediately introduced herself and even began working before she was expected to. Immediately got into the detail shots and checked off everything we wanted photographed that she could. We took photos prior to the ceremony and ended up having a lot of extra down time. We didn’t just sit there, she quickly thought of other ideas that we could do and filled the time with photos. After a while, I personally needed a break and Erika was SO RESPECTFUL of that!!! Unfortunately, both Erika and I found ourselves getting screwed over by that third party company post wedding when they dissolved their LLC. Erika NEVER quit communicating with me during this time. Backed up all images so I didn’t lose the most important photos of my life and showed a level of empathy and professionalism that is truly unmatched! She never slowed down with work and her personal life but she never forgot about me. Periodically would check in while we still waited for answers from the third party. Erika was so generous that at the end of it all, she took her valuable time and edited the photos for us and quite frankly, way better than any of the photos I saw from the third party. I am so beyond blessed that through this whole mess that Erika was my photographer. Everything we went through says SO much about her character, her passion and her desire to do the right thing and help someone she literally had no legal obligation to. If you’re still reading this, please book her. I promise you will not regret it! She was our shining light in such a dark situation. She produces such phenomenal results and is one of the best photographers I have ever worked with.

    Erika did a wonderful job taking my son’s pictures! You could see him open up because he felt comfortable. Very nice to work with and very accommodating.

    Thank you so much Kayla! It was so great working with you!


Typically, couples book me about 12 months before their wedding date. I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible about my availability, even if you’re planning on a shorter time frame.
Yes! We are a husband and wife team. Erika is the lead photographer and Stephen is the second photographer.
We go through an extensive culling and editing process to make sure you receive the best images we can provide for you. You will receive all of the best edited images that cover your entire timeline of your wedding day.
Guarantee is within 90 days from your wedding day. Summers and falls are the busiest wedding seasons in Michigan and editing time tends to take longer during those months.
We do not guarantee an exact number that you will receive because every single wedding is completely different and we cater our services to each wedding. However, you can expect around 50 to 100 images per hour of photographing. But keep in mind this estimate varies depending on your wedding package, number of guests, venue type, and other factors.
We do! Just let me know if your venue requires a certificate of liability, and I’ll send that over to them.
In my 9 years of experience as a wedding photographer, I’ve never cancelled a booking. In the very rare event that I’m unable to photograph your wedding, I’ll make sure you’re covered by one of my colleagues or find a suitable replacement through my network of professional photographers. I’ll also provide you with a list of photographers from the many networking groups I’m in, so you can find the perfect replacement. You are my top priority on your wedding day so I want to make sure that I am there for you!
