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.

Dallas and Megan’s Engagement VIDEO!

You might remember Dallas and Megan’s engagement session in Kansas City from a few weeks ago. What you didn’t know from the engagement photos is that Jeff was also there, shooting an engagement video for Dallas and Megan! This was Jeff’s first engagement-themed video (and one of his very first video projects), and I love how it turned out. I can’t wait to see what he comes up with as he keeps learning and growing with videography! Since Jeff’s videography site isn’t ready to launch just yet, I thought I’d post this engagement story video here! :) I couldn’t figure out how to post it here on my blog in HD, but this was shot in high definition!

This engagement video even includes a little impromptu “interview” portion, shot in the upstairs nook at the City Market Coffee House. But my favorite part is the very end… leave a comment here for Jeff to let him know what you like best!
