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.

Nick and Sarah in Downtown Wichita

I love Nick and Sarah. They’re some of the best people I know. I told Jeff today that they’re “constant encouragers.” They’re friends who are always excited about what is happening in their friends’ lives. Plus, they’re fun. I was so excited when they wanted to take part in the portrait special to benefit HOBY. I love being able to photograph my wedding clients after their wedding day, and I love that Nick and Sarah want to have updated photos of “normal life.” :)

We went to a few spots in downtown Wichita for their session… I love shooting in new locations!

We also took a few photos in their home with their two adorable puppies. I love these snapshots into real life.
