Hi, I'm Erica!! I'm a Northwest Arkansas newborn and motherhood photographer located in the cutest little town called Bentonville.
I am the lucky mom of four beautiful babies, the wife of one very handsome man, and a lover of fresh florals and sunshine. I have a serious HGTV and home decorating obsession (me and Joanna are like *this*) and I am notorious for overusing smiley faces and exclamation points!! Oh, and bring me some dark chocolate and we'll be best friends forever!
I have always been a memory keeper and obsessed with photographs. Growing up, I carried a disposable camera or video camera everywhere we went (oh, the collection of home movies and boxes of photographs we have!).
I started to form a real interest in the art of photography when I was a senior in high school and learned film and worked in a dark room for the first time. In college, I studied advertising and was lucky enough to receive an apprenticeship in the studio on campus. That opportunity opened up many doors and encouraged me to start my own photography business.
I began with portrait work, moving into weddings and families. After a few years, and after having my own babies, I decided that honing in on newborn and motherhood photography was exactly where I wanted to be. It's a gift I am so blessed to create for families in this most beautiful time in their lives and a time in my own life that I cherish so very much.
