Room for the creative work.
Clients appoint, contract with and pay their studio or production team directly. Production costs are separate from Erika’s creative fee.
The production lead coordinates the studio, crew, equipment, hair and makeup, styling, props and schedule. The guide below offers starting points in both cities.
Interest, dates, deliverables, usage and fees are agreed after reviewing the brief.
I’m not currently taking on weddings, influencer content, real-estate photography, routine headshots or standalone still-life and product-catalog shoots. Thank you for understanding.
