Erica McNicol Photography

Greetings! My name is Erica, and I am so thrilled you found your way here. When I'm not behind the lens capturing precious moments, you can usually find me navigating the joyful chaos of life with my husband and two energetic little ones. My days are filled with the laughter of my children, the warmth of family snuggles, and the quiet moments I cherish with my besotted husband. Life is an adventure, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I have a penchant for all things cozy, and sunny days are often spent exploring the great outdoors as a family. On rainy afternoons, you might find me curled up with a good book (probably one I've read a dozen times), a steaming cup of coffee, and perhaps a good dose of Harry Potter magic. I'm a firm believer in the power of laughter, the beauty of genuine connections, and the importance of capturing life's fleeting moments, especially those filled with love and joy.

What I Love About Photography

Photography allows me to weave visual narratives that tell the unique story of each family I have the honor of photographing. It's about capturing the essence of who they are, the bonds they share, and the love that makes their story special. Each family session is a journey, a glimpse into their daily lives, a celebration of the beautiful, messy, and utterly precious moments that make up their world.

I strive to create images that reflect the genuine spirit of each family I work with. I believe in authentic connections, playful interactions, and a relaxed environment where everyone feels comfortable and at ease. Forget the stiff poses and forced smiles! I want to capture the spontaneous laughter, the loving glances, and those unexpected moments of joy that reveal the true heart of a family.

My Approach to Family Photography

From the initial consultation to the final gallery reveal, I aim to create a personalized experience that is as meaningful as the images themselves. My goal is to provide a stress-free and enjoyable session where everyone can be themselves and create lasting memories filled with genuine connection and laughter.

During a family photo session, I act as a gentle guide, capturing the natural dynamics and interactions between family members. I encourage playful moments, tender embraces, and simply being present in the joy of being together. My style is bright, whimsical, and full of life. I believe imagery should be infused with warmth, authenticity, and the genuine spirit of love that binds families together.
