About Erika

Erika spent a decade filming documentaries on three continents, from the gem vaults of the Kremlin to hillside favelas in Rio de Janeiro, learning to find the story inside a place before she ever turns on a camera.

That same instinct now shows up across three connected crafts: directing documentary and brand film for museums, universities, and mission-driven organizations; photographing homes and interiors in a way that captures how a space is actually lived in; and building interactive 360° virtual tours that let people walk through a place they can't visit in person.
