Meet Erik

I believe powerful visuals connect people and grow businesses.

I’m Erik Esparza, the founder and lead photographer of Ezekiel E. Photography. My journey began at 14 when I developed my first roll of black-and-white film, and ever since, I’ve been captivated by the way a single image can tell a story, capture emotion, and move people. Over the last 17 years, that passion has grown into a career dedicated to creating powerful, story-driven images for professionals, entrepreneurs, and brands.

We’re proud to be rooted in Bixby, where small business owners, professionals, and entrepreneurs are building remarkable things every day. These neighbors, friends, and fellow business leaders inspire us, and they’re the heart of our tribe. From local restaurants and real estate professionals to Tulsa’s attorneys, doctors, and product or fashion brands, we partner with people who believe their image should speak with confidence, trust, and credibility.

Our work has been featured in publications like The Knot, South Asian Bride Magazine, Weddings & Honeymoons, Chilled Magazine, and more. But what matters most isn’t the recognition — it’s the trust our clients place in us to bring their vision to life.

At Ezekiel E., our mission is simple: to make premium photography accessible for Tulsa-area professionals and businesses, and to create imagery that not only looks beautiful but also works hard for your brand. Because when you look powerful, confident, and connected, the right opportunities follow.

My Journey

What I Value Most

Personal Connection: Building strong relationships with my clients is at the heart of creating exceptional photographs. I focus on understanding their vision and personalities so that they, not me, are the true stars of the story.

Visual Storytelling: Combines the authentic feel of lifestyle photography with a bold, editorial style, capturing moments that are vibrant, alive, and unforgettable.

Experience and Expertise: With nearly two decades of experience, I bring a unique perspective to every event or shoot. I view situational challenges as opportunities to create something extraordinary. Clear communication, thoughtful design, and a genuine joy in serving others define my approach, ensuring every project is as seamless as it is meaningful.

“These are a few of my favorite things”

WHY Ezekiel?

יְחֶזְקֵאל

Ezekiel is a perfect name for the company. In the Hebrew language, it translates to “The Strength of God,” which embodies the SPIRIT of life, creativity, and adventure.

It reflects my belief that photography is more than taking a snapshot—it’s about creating a legacy of moments that inspire and endure.

On My Down Time

When I am not shooting, I teach my boys how to be entrepreneurs, roam around Tulsa, scout different locations, interact with people, and develop innovative ideas to bring to the next event or shoot. The last goal is to transform Ezekiel (Z3KE) into a trademark of a superior lifestyle photography brand that clients can rely on and turn to in the next generation.
