San Francisco weddings. destination weddings. portraits. lifestyle.
Last month I welcomed 18 talented photographers into my home for the maiden voyage of POSER:EXPOSED, Quasi-Wedding edition. Let me just say that putting together a full wedding and a workshop in the same day is a daunting task. There were definitely some lessons learned for next time, but it was an absolutely amazing experience…
A month or so ago, I held the first POSER:EXPOSED workshop with the Quasi-Wedding as the main attraction. My idea was not only to provide the attendees with a unique learning experience, but provide local up and coming wedding professionals with an opportunity to gain some exposure where they might not get it otherwise. I…

Andrew Rozell - I swear, I usually don’t dance like that on command. It was all for the sake of Jeremy and Tara’s photos!
Seriously, you killed it. Thanks for letting us relive the day with this post.
Carly - It was beyond a joy to be there to: learn, share, grow, cry, laugh, witness, meet, eat, dance, drink…i think the only thing we didn’t do was sing. Sing-along, next time :) Thank you thank you. So fun to relive and see the final result!
Gabriel Tanase - Dude, your work is so gorgeous it makes me feel so inadequate. I’m speechless

rebekah - lovely to see kat braman and jessica lorren on your blog buddy. and fabulous emotion coming from your camera…once again.
Sarah Danaher - Holy, holy cow. I remember Jeremy and Tara’s wedding. It’s my favorite one that you’ve ever shot, and I cried when I first looked at the images. I’ve never, EVER seen such a tender, prayer-filled ceremony. Ever. I cried again, seeing these images again. I’m single, but when I marry, I want to be like they are, because their love for Jesus and their love for each other literally explodes out of the images and into the hearts of the viewer. Thanks, Erik, for capturing their love without distracting from who they are. That’s proof of a good photographer, in my opinion.
Julian Moniz - Alright…So when is the next workshop…I’m coming :) Awesome stuff dude!
Julian Moniz - Alright…So when is the next one, I am coming…Awesome stuff dude…I love how you turned it into something so real…
Adam Houseman - Dude! So flippin gorgeous. Love me some Ray too. Can’t not cry for that dance. Sign Imthiaz and I up for the next quasi wedding. I’ll even man the light stick again.
imthiaz houseman - wow… congrats on your first workshop it turned out… well… AMAZING! you killed it. nice work.
Adele - This is crazy amazing. I cried reading this post. Oie..!! When’s the next one? Great Idea with so much realness!
shipra - I’ve been stalking to see these! As always, my expectations are blown away. It was a great time, Erik. So thankful I got to be a part of the workshops maiden voyage. And big props to Tara, Jeremy, Des and all your vendors. Thanks to all of them for making it such a memorable time.
Tara Marrone - Erik – I’m left a little speechless, once again, by the depth of your heart and sheer anointing to tell our story. A simple ‘thank you’ just doesn’t seem adequate to express how grateful we are, for your tenderness and passion in capturing our heart for one another. Thank you for trusting us to be a part of this adventure with you. And thank you to Destiny and the other photographers for embracing us so warmly!
Stefano Choi - Wow, seeing these images really expresses the emotion and feel of this wedding. At times, I felt as if it was a real wedding and not staged, the feeling and mood of the day was unreal. You couldn’t have picked a better couple to take part in this experience. A very special thank you to you, Destiny and everyone that made this workshop a wonderful experience that made all of us better photographers.
kristi wright - These are amazing!! I’m so glad I got to attend this workshop. I really enjoyed meeting everyone and learned so much!
Dena Gainor - Your pictures are amazing! I cannot wait to see the pictures from Stacey and T.J.’s wedding. YOU are very talented. Nice to have met you both and thanks for the info on Mr. Ray Lamontagne. Hope you enjoyed Daytona or what us locals like to call “Dirtona” or the “Dirty D”:)
