I’m a mother to two beautiful little boys. After having my second, I realized how much I had missed documenting the everyday details with my oldest. They were both growing so quickly before my eyes and I knew I would regret not preserving those small, ever changing moments.
I started focusing on documenting our life not just as a mother, but as an artist. That shift helped me realized I wanted other moms to have these kinds of memories too. Photography became my way of honoring connection. Of preserving what’s real, raw, and fleeting.
I focus on motherhood and childhood because I understand the beauty and the chaos they carry. My sessions aren’t about stiff poses or perfect smiles. They’re about the little moments, the kind you’ll want to look back on years from now and truly feel again.
If you’re drawn to emotion, storytelling and images that feel like home, you're in the right place.
We had an amazing experience with Erica for our family/maternity photo shoot. Our toddler was cranky throughout the session and I thought there was no way the photos would be worthwhile. However, we were amazed with the finished product and have gotten SO many compliments on our photos. Highly recommend Erica for a seamless family photoshoot experience!
I am a light editor (no face swaps here). I try to keep your photos as true to life as possible using light to create depth in the moment. I will edit out cuts and blemishes not normally present if requested. I do not offer body adjustments as you’re beautiful just the way you are!
