I'm Erica a D.C. wedding photographer, with two young children, and a love for organization. Welcome to my small space on the internet where I can share with you special sessions, real weddings, and even little looks into my everyday life. Take a look around, and thanks for stopping by!
Charlottesville has long been one of my favorite places for a wedding—especially if you’re dreaming of an outdoor celebration. Nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, it’s the kind of place where vineyard views, garden paths, and historic charm come together effortlessly. As a wedding photographer drawn to natural light and romantic storytelling, […]
Some stories deserve to be told slowly. This blog is all about an in-home couple session I photographed in Charlotte, North Carolina—a final farewell to a couple’s first home. Two newlyweds invited me to document their story, one last time before handing over the keys. You may recognize them from their Charlottesville wedding last October, […]

From the earliest blooms in the lavender fields to the mountain views stretching behind the historic estate, their day felt like a soft exhale into the season of new […]
There’s something incredibly special about documenting the first few weeks with a newborn. Time feels suspended, and every tiny detail is new. I had the joy of photographing baby Grant’s in-home newborn session in Mechanicsville, VA, just two weeks after his arrival. The session was calm, meaningful, and filled with love. From the moment I […]
