At the age of 8 Erik's father gave him a Nikonos IVA and he was quickly published, frequently landing magazine and newspaper covers. Erik began his professional film career at an early age working on sets of films such as "The Deep" and "Charlies Angels" (Love Boat Angels).  By the age of 18 Erik had been a cameraman on documentaries for the BBC, National Geographic, and Jacques Coustea.

His location, coupled with his technical skills put him in demand on film productions shooting in the Caribbean region, his specialty was underwater cinematography.  Erik worked with some of the industries finest, and this introduction primed him for his entry into the fast paced life of American film.

Based in Miami, Erik began working on Commercial shoots and Music videos eventually transitioning back into Feature films.  The work took him all over the Continental United States, Caribbean, South America, and Europe.

After what seemed like a lifetime, Erik returned to the Virgin Islands to pursue the production of his own films, (several of which have been given prestigious awards) and to dedicate himself to fine art photography and film making, balanced with raising a family.  One of his latest shoots was as the underwater DP/Operator for “Real Housewives of NY”.
