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.

Operation Love Reunited Session

I got to meet up with this fun family for an Operation: Love Reunited session while their soldier was home for his R&R in the middle of the deployment. It was so fun hanging out with them at the park, and the little guys are bundles of energy who were so cute for the camera! Thanks so much for driving all the way to Kansas City for the session!

(For OpLove regulations, no names are used in these session posts, and the soldier’s name badge is blurred for safety).
