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.

Kansas City Senior Photographer: Katelyn at Kauffman Gardens and the Plaza

I liked Katelyn from the moment I met her — and not only because of her adorableness, her great sense of style, and outgoing personality, but because you can tell that she’s someone who cares deeply about the people around her. If this is the type of student graduating high school right now, then the “real world” is in for a treat. Katelyn spends her summers volunteering at a local children’s hospital, and is super excited to get started with her nursing degree at KU in the fall.

We met up for a senior session at Kauffman Gardens and the Plaza area, and it was a great session from start to finish. Here are a few of my many favorites.
