Reviews of City Lights Studio (Photo Studio)

Natalie Coppola

Erica photographed our wedding a few years ago and most recently took newborn pictures for us. Other family members have hired her for weddings and family portraits as well. I would highly recommend her to anyone! Worth the investment! Professionally, she is organized, responsive, and timely with photo editing. Personally, she is a joy to work with and extremely talented and creative!

I booked City Lights for a boudoir session and due to inclement weather they were super flexible in allowing me to keep my scheduled shoot date by coming to my home instead of the original salon location. Erica brought me to life during the shoot and captured images I absolutely loved. I am sure my husband and I will look back on these someday and be so happy we did them!

Erica is the greatest! So easy to work with, flexible and understanding! We booked her for our wedding 9 years ago, and have used her ever since! Always chooses excellent locations, works well with kids (human and fur!) and her quality is always spot on! Couldn’t recommend more!

I've had two sessions with Erica (my wedding and a story-telling session) and I return to both sets of photos with such sentiment and happiness. She has a wonderful eye for detail and captures images in a way that makes the mood really tangible. She takes the time to ask you what you're hoping to get out of your session and really makes it fitting to you. Erica's warm personality makes it easy to open up in front of the camera and that, in turn, gets really great photos. I hope to schedule more sessions with her in the future to capture more of my family's special moments.

Erica is the best! She’s done several sessions for my family and my small business. She’s professional, fun, and very talented. We treasure our photos, and will no doubt be back for more.

I cannot say enough good things about Erica and City Lights Studio. She is not only a Buffalo expert, but her kindness and expertise is truly remarkable. It’s been almost 7 years since our wedding and our pictures are still just as perfect as ever. Timeless, beautiful, and so special!

Erica / City Lights Photography is a true and fabulous professional photographer. I have worked with her on many occasions along with having her do team headshots and story telling for my business. We have always been happy with the results. Her studio space is beyond gorgeous with lots of natural light and a wonderful experience all around.

I’ve known Erica for years, have worked with her so many times, and I’m a huge fan of her work! Last year she photographed our business and I can not say enough amazing things about her and her work! She created a brand story for us that I am still constantly getting compliments on. Hire her today!

I can’t say enough about City Lights Photography! She brings such happiness and life to any photo shoot. She is awesome and you can tell she truly loves what she does. I’m so happy she was able to capture us—just any old day but moments I want to freeze in time. They grow so fast but I I want to remember these days for the rest of my life— and now I can. I’m so thankful for the time she spent with us. A treasure to last a lifetime ????

Erica has a knack for photos, and for people! She knows what she’s doing; she loves what she’s doing - and it shines through in every portrait!

Erica has captured many of our family’s special moments including our wedding & newborn photos. She makes us feel so comfortable taking pictures! I love how it always feels natural and not “posed”.

Emma O'Connor Gagliano

We are so thrilled with our photo session with Erica! We love the photos and she made us feel so comfortable despite having never done a photo shoot before. She even managed to get great photos of our restless puppy! We are looking forward to working with her again in the future! Highly recommend.

Erica is the best! Before my wedding, I had stalked her photography blog for years and I knew she was the only person for the big day. She’s always super responsive, funny, kind, and very involved in the community. Our wedding pictures were captured perfectly and we get so many compliments from our guests about how they perfectly captured our day. We did a Rock the Dress session on our one year anniversary and it was so fun to reconnect and the pictures captured at sunset were stunning! I can’t recommend her enough and know I’ll use her for other big life moments.

Erica was truly the best photographer we could have ever asked for at our wedding. She captured every special and fun moment from our big day and I recommend her to everyone!
