About me

Hi, I am Erica.

Art has always been a part of me as long as I can remember. I picked up my first real camera when I moved to Arizona in 2005. I was inspired by the beauty all around me. Here we are 20 years later, and I am still capturing beauty around me. My work has been published in several magazines, websites, photo competitions, and newspapers.

Our family recently relocated to Texas and now lives on an 8-acre farm in Athens. I would love to work with you to bring your vision to life.

It’s the in-between moments that tell the real story — the soft glances, quiet laughter, and gentle hands resting on a growing belly or cradling a newborn. ✨

In-home maternity and newborn sessions are where life’s most honest moments unfold — cozy, real, and full of heart.

Let’s capture the beauty in the ordinary and preserve the moments you’ll never want to forget.
