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.

Not one, but two! Twin boys!

My cousins had baby boys a few months ago — yes, plural! We welcomed another set of twins into my extended family. Jonah and Silas are the sweetest little baby boys, and I got to meet them at Christmas. Of course, I couldn’t help but snap a few photos of them while we were all together, and I thought I’d post some here. Since schedules with two little guys are pretty hard to make, we didn’t get a chance to do a real photo shoot, but I’m so glad they were snoozing away at the family Christmas so I could take these shots. They’re too cute!

Here’s Silas:

And his brother, Jonah:

And the two of them together. I’m sure they’re going to be the best of friends.

Congratulations to the new parents, the new grandparents, the new uncles and aunt, and everyone else who is so excited to welcome these two little sweeties into the family. :)
