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.

Family Portraits on the Farm!

One of the best parts about family photos is getting to take photos of families more than once and capture their kids growing up and the family at different stages. This is the third time I’ve been able to take photos of this beautiful family, and I’m so thankful that they keep asking me to take photos of them! The girls are absolutely adorable, and keep getting cuter every time I see them.

We met up in Olathe at Mahaffie Stagecoach Farm for some portraits on a June evening.
