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.

Petey says, “Happy Thanksgiving!” :)

Petey loves Thanksgiving. Why, you ask? Because Petey loves turkey. And because his mom (that’s me) is a sucker for his cute little face, and I can’t resist giving him tastes of the delicious Thanksgiving meal. So, here’s Petey, wishing you all a very Happy Thanksgiving. Take time this year to enjoy moments with your...

My life is very blessed. I have an awesome family, great friends, and the most amazing opportunity to photograph people’s lives.
