Ericka Kreutz Family Photography Portraits

For me, the best photos are the ones you can hear. Real belly laughs, real sighs, real coos, zerberts and snickers. I am a seeker of connection, emotion and love. I want to capture the details of a toddler’s eyelash and her tiny hand around Dad’s neck. I want to focus on your great aunt as she wipes a tear away at your wedding and when your brother's speech makes you bend over in a giggle fit.

And I want to focus on you, your authentic self, just as you are, in real life.

You just be you. And I'll take care of the rest.

TESTIMONIALS

You should have been here watching us watching the video. We both cried. The video and the music really touched our hearts. After all the s*** we've been through to move here, watching what we've built together is a gift. Arnau was telling me "Thank god you made me do this." It's incredible. You captured my family beyond what I imagined. I'm so glad I found you and hired you for this. The moments are precious and the way you retouched brought up a lot of warmth and love.

FAQ

FREQUENTLY ANSWERED QUESTIONS

I grew up in Milwaukee, WI – the oldest of four children. My parents called me the “camp counselor” because I often took the role of ringmaster and set up play for my brother and sisters to follow along. I created performances and puppet shows, and we played “City” for an entire rain filled afternoon. I lived in the world of make-believe, and I loved it.

It’s no surprise that I found my way into the drama club. Bringing stories to life with an ensemble was my jam. There was nothing I longed for more than to actually walk in another’s shoes.

I went to a Theatre Conservatory and was a working actress in Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles. It was great, it isgreat, but after having my two boys I started to search for something more.

It was at a time when news programs were getting extra loud, social media was contentious, emotions were sizzling, and my kids were throwing cups of juice across the floor. All of this noise seeped into my body. I couldn’t sleep, I couldn’t think. What do I do with this energy? What is my responsibility? What is my output?

So, I took a good look at my life. And my community.

And I got real quiet.

And when all the dials were down I listened. I heard little feet hitting soccer balls, I heard “whees” on a curly slide, I heard sips of coffee and quiet chatter of mothers, I heard first words, and bad falls, and peek-a-boos. I heard sand in buckets. I heard hugs in jackets. I heard kisses on banged up knees.

Love. It was all around me. And life! Sweet, daily, growing life. With all of it’s wonder. And all of its challenges. This is what it was all about.

So, my mission now is to capture this. The moments of joy. The moments of togetherness. The everyday moments that we take for granted and whoops – where did the time go?

These are my stories I now want to tell.

I believe the small moments are the big moments. And if we turn down the noise we can see very clear. I want to capture that beauty of life so we will always remember, and forever celebrate it.
