These are the days to remember.
I believe in the beauty of motherhood, with challenging moments being just as important as picture perfect ones.
When your child looks up at you, there is only love. And that love doesn’t fade. It grows stronger and deeper year after year.
That evolution is the focus of my work, capturing the unique beauty of daily life because the story of your family matters.
It must be preserved for you, for your children + for generations to come.
Reasons family photography is so important:
01. To get everyone in the frame.
The person taking the picture isn’t in the frame. Your kids need to see you! Scheduling annual photo sessions to be sure all of you are in the frame is something you will never regret doing.
02. To have updated photos available.
When you have family photos taken regularly, you always have updated pictures ready for holiday cards, wall frames, albums or whatever else comes up. Plus, framed family photos make the best gifts.
03. To capture pieces of your story.
Your children grow quickly and it’s important to document each new and exciting stage. When you tell your family story with photos, it allows people who weren’t there to feel as though they were.

Make family photos part of your valued traditions.
Let them remember the love they felt.
How a family photo session works:
Schedule a 15 minute call with me to discuss session details, set a date/time and pay the $250 fee to book your session.
Once your spot is reserved, I’ll send you my session prep guide that includes everything you need to know - including what to wear. Sessions typically last 60-90 minutes.
Two - three weeks later, you’ll receive your fully edited proofs in an online gallery so you can choose your favorites and pick a collection that works for you. (Collection prices start at $750. More details available upon request).
“Erica made us all feel immediately at ease and soon we were laughing and playing together.
My husband and I have been diligent about photographing the special occasions in our life. Erica reminded us that the “ordinary" moments are just as special.”

You have reservations…
You hoped to lose weight first.
There is a lot of pressure on mothers to look a certain way in photos. Why is that? Let me show you how beautiful you look - right now, just as you are. Get in the frame with your children. Years from now you’ll look back + be happy you did.
You worry your kids will misbehave.
There is no way to predict when kids will act out, that’s why I make recommendations during our pre-session call to keep kids happy. Plus, I have children of my own. I get it. Over the years I’ve perfected lots of fun ways to get kids to cooperate.
You are way too busy right now.
Life is busy these days - whether you are about to have a baby, you have a newborn or you’ve got a few little ones running around. The truth is, the perfect time may never present itself. Trust me - the time is now. Make family photos a priority.
