Hello, My name is Erica. I love taking photographs. I am currently settling in to L.A. and the west coast. I co-founded the Detroit based Lucent Photography and occasionally work under We Will Shoot Your Face.

Some of my work includes the Ypsi Project and This Place is Empty. You can find me in L.A. and Detroit.

Self Portrait

Polar Bears are …… terrifying! The exhibit in San Diego provides only a sheet of glass between the viewer and the giant bear that could easily snap your head off.

This photo was taken on Mike’s 30th birthday road trip last November :)

Something old, something new, something borrowed…

Erica Hampton Photography (aka: my lonely little self ) traveled to Armada MI to shoot the beautiful Nicole and Kenny on their wedding day. The wedding destination was a quaint little bed and breakfast with a lovely garden for the exchange of vows.

We then took a trip to down town Detroit for a few fun shots with the bridal party before I had to jump on my flight back to L.A.!

Please check out the Nicole and Kenny set on Flickr for more images from their special day.

Griffith Park Observatory (at night)

The adorable Nicole and Kenny. I traveled to Detroit to shoot this wedding. While it was hot and I was eaten alive by mosquitos it was worth it! Nicole and Kenny are perfect together and their wedding was lovely. I’m happy I could be a part of their special day :) 

My portfolio is way out of date so I’ve been digging through my (incredibly, ridiculously messy) harddrive trying to cull and organize my images. I found this little gem. Her Mom was a little upset she refused to take off her princess outfit and wear a matching white shirt like the rest of the family. I tried to reassure her, telling her that her daughters stubborn streak made for adorable photos and lovely memories. I’m not sure my reassurance worked at the time, but I hope she looks back on these with a warm heart. I hope all my clients can look back on their photos that I’ve created for them and remember good times, funny personalities and how they use to be :)
