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 honestly fall in love with every baby I photograph. I obsess over those chubby little toes, wrinkled knuckles, and tiny button noses. I love their little hair swirls, rolly little thighs, that sweet, fresh-from-heaven scent and those teensy tiny breaths.

Services
I consider being trusted to tell the stories of these tiny babes and the beginnings of their new little families one of my greatest blessings. Step behind the scenes with me during a newborn session in my sweet little studio and watch me do what I love. Erica Kirby is a newborn, maternity and motherhood photographer with a studio located in Bentonville, AR and serving all of NWA and the River Valley, Southern Missouri, and Eastern Oklahoma.
For more information on pricing and availability, please use the contact form located at the top of the page. I recommend booking as far in advance as possible to guarantee your session, as I take a very limited number of sessions per month. Most execting mothers reserve their sessions at the beginning of their second trimester.
In-Person newborn workshops are the perfect way to really jump to that next level in your newborn photography business. You will receive hands-on instruction in a very comfortable and fun environment. I want you to leave your workshop feeling motivated and ready to conquer the newborn photography world!

My husband and I visited Erica's studio and felt very welcomed and at ease with taking photos with her. She was very respectful, professional, and knows what she is doing. After we received the photos from our maternity shoot we are extremely pleased with how the photos came out. If you need a photographer for maternity or infant go to her.

Erica was absolutely amazing to work with. She’s incredible with newborns and her work is absolutely stunning. I couldn’t be happier with how they came out. She was so good with my kids and made us feel welcome at the shoot. She went above and beyond and I couldn’t recommend her enough! You definitely want her as your photographer.

Erica just did my maternity photos today and I am so impressed and happy! She was kind and sweet, sincere and professional. I am looking forward to our newborn session with her and would not hesitate to recommend her to a friend or family member. She made me feel beautiful even during these frumpy late pregnancy months.

As a photographer, I am very picky about who I let do my own photos. I was SO happy with my experience with Erica. She was so friendly and made this second time mama feel right at home in her beautiful studio. Our photos will be something we will cherish forever- they and her are both worth the investment!

Erica is amazing! We have done maternity, newborn and milestone photos with her. I'd recommend her to anyone and everyone! She is a joy to be around and handled our little boy with such care! Not to mention, her studio is filled with adorable outfits and props and is so welcoming! We are so thankful for her!

One glance at Erica’s portfolio was enough to make me want to hire her. But once I met her, I knew I’d want her to be our photographer for years to come. Erica is a wonderfully talented photographer with impeccable taste, style, and attention to detail. But what makes her truly special is her ability to bring out the best in everyone she photographs through her warmth and gentleness. My daughter, who is a bit camera shy and generally uncomfortable with strangers at first, warmed right up to Erica’s big smile and sweet demeanor. We are so grateful for the privilege to have someone like Erica

She is so amazing with babies! She did my birth photography, newborn, and 6 month milestone pictures for my daughter Taytum. I’ve never met anyone more talented at what they do! We are so lucky to have found her. The pictures I got from her are the best money I’ve ever spent! She is also the sweetest person and makes you and your babe feel totally at ease!

My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Erica and her husband as they took pictures of our sweet new baby girl a couple weeks ago. I was amazed by the atmosphere in which Erica takes pictures in. The lighting, the music, the seating area for my husband to observe from. It was all so peaceful and calm. Erica was so gentle with our week old little girl. She slept practically the whole time; but when she didn't sleep, Erica was patient, loving, and gentle with her as she'd ease her back to sleep.
Erica also pays so much attention to all the details. I had just given birth via c-section

When looking for a photographer during my third pregnancy, I came across Erica's website when browsing google. I knew I didn't need to look any further. I fell in love with her style and knew she had the level of expertise that I was looking for...and that was before even meeting her! We first met Erica in our hospital room the day after our son was born for his "Fresh 48" session. That is when I saw her personality, her love for what she does, all while making us feel as comfortable as possible. A few days later we had our newborn shoot. Everything about that session was nothing short of amazing

Spending money on newborn/milestone photos can be very overwhelming! Going back and forth to decide if you can, want and should spend all that money! I'm here to tell you that as a stay at home mom on a serious budget, it's ONLY worth it if you can book them with Erica Kirby!
Not only did she take the time to squeeze me in, (I had pondered so much that my baby was almost a month old), she was sweet, kind, loving, caring and everything you would imagine a newborn photographer would be! She's like a little walking warm fuzzy!!!!
From the moment we got there, we felt at home! Erica prepares the
