Bio:
For nearly twenty years, New Orleans-based fine art music photographer Erika Molleck Goldring has developed her own unique style of performance portraiture. Her character-driven portfolio features such celebrated acts as Beyonce, Keith Richards, Willie Nelson, and Fats Domino, as well as breaking new acts in genres as divergent as hip-hop, jazz, blues, bluegrass, americana, country, pop and rock.
Erika captures the energy in a live show—whether it’s the split second a beautiful stage light falls on her subject or the raw emotion emanating from the performer lost in the groove. Simplicity and balance prevail in Erika’s images. Her work speaks of the sounds, vibrations and rhythmic idiosyncrasies distinct to each performer.
Her work is regularly featured in a number of publications and newspapers, including Rolling Stone, People, Entertainment Weekly, Time, Billboard and DownBeat magazines, as well as the New York Times, Chicago Tribune, USA Today and The Guardian newspapers. Erika has had works accepted into the Smithsonian’s Ogden Museum of Southern Art and the Louisiana State Museum in New Orleans, Louisiana, the Delta Blues Museum in Clarksdale, Mississippi, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum in Cleveland, OH.
She is continually hired by Getty Images Entertainment, performing rights organization BMI, Ryman Auditorium and Ryman Hospitality Properties, Sony Nashville, Americana Music Association, Pilgrimage Festival, Key West Songwriters Festival and Trombone Shorty Foundation.

Quotes, Notes & Etc.
“Erika has an ability to non-intrusively move into the mix of New Orleans’ cultural bearers, from Social Aid & Pleasure Clubs to Mardi Gras Indians, capturing intimate moments without disturbing the tradition itself.”
Michelle Longino, Founder & Inter-Club Relations Director,
New Orleans Bayou Steppers Social Aid & Pleasure Club
“Erika Goldring has the valuable and rare ability as a photographer to shoot images that are as dynamic as the culture and musicians she portrays and yet exhibit a mystery and intimacy with her subjects, giving them a depth that is not often seen.”
David Kunian, New Orleans correspondent, DownBeat Magazine
