welcome to the ericamay blog!

Hi! I'm Erica May Short, and I'm so excited you're here. This blog will show you my current work with a few fun personal things mixed in to help you get to know me better. I am a wedding and portrait photographer in Kansas City, and I love my job. I am so blessed to be a part of so many stories. I care more about people than pictures, because it's your story that provides photo-worthy moments.

Besides photography, I love my husband Jeff, our miniature schnauzer Petey, movie theater candy, and the color green. You can visit my main portfolio website at www.ericamay.com!


All of the fun photos in the blog header are of Jeff and I recently -- taken by our amazingly talented friends Jeremy and Ashley of www.wearetheparsons.com! We have them to thank for capturing us exactly how we are.

From the Santa Monica Pier to the mountains of Colorado

I’m back from California… and headed out again in the morning to catch a flight to Colorado!! :) I know, I’m crazy!

Jeff and I are going to this amazing photography workshop and I’m so looking forward to the experience. Thank you all for being so patient with me as I’m slower than usual replying to emails and returning phone calls during these last few weeks. I’m excited to pick back up with shooting incredible weddings this weekend!

For now, here’s a shot of the Santa Monica Pier. I was there taking photos of the WLC ambassadors doing a community service project for Heal the Bay, where they picked up trash and helped keep the beach clean! What a cool project! Anyway, I also snapped this while I was there. Enjoy!
