Welcome to Erica Ann Photography and Fine Art! Professional Portland portrait photographers are often expected to simply pose their subjects. And while that strictly traditional approach may work for some, I have found that most people want more than cookie-cutter portrait photography. I believe that great portrait photography happens when everyone is comfortable and enjoying themselves. So it's no wonder that I love being one of Portland's journalistic portrait photographers.
As your Oregon portrait photographer, capturing your unique personality is only the beginning. How those images are transfered to physical media is all up to you. Using the best shots of your portland portraits, I create a custom album that you will love to show off to everyone you can. My real specialty is taking your favorite portrait photographs and putting them on canvas. I can print them on, paint them on, or both - it's up to you. I'm not just another Portland portrait photographer.
Photojournalistic Family Portrait Photographer
Kids and families are my favorite! I offer maternity, newborn, baby, child and family photoshoots. The sessions can be at your house, my house, a local park or wherever you think your child will be most comfortable. I love doing individual sessions but I'm also really excited about the Baby's First Year Album!
Baby's First Year Album
Throughout your child's first year, we will get together several times to document his/her journey through life. Each session is 1-2 hours and will take place in your home or the location of your choice. At the end of your child's first year we will put together a beautiful album that you will cherish forever! The premium package includes six sessions: maternity, newborn, 3 month, 6 month, 9 month and 1 year.

Artistic Senior / Graduate Photographer
High school or college senior photography is a great way to celebrate your graduation! Each session is specially designed just for you. If you want have a high energy funky urban shoot or a low key natural session in the forest or by a creek we will make it happen. You can dance in the rain or frolic on the beach. I know of so many great locations in Newberg and Portland, Oregon.
This is not a one-size-fits-all, tilt-your-head-and-give-me-a-fake-smile kind of photoshoot. I am YOUR graduate photographer. Sessions last 3-4 hours so bring a good variety of clothes and lots of ideas so you can end up with perfect graduate photography! $450 includes a 8" x 8" Coffee Table Album or $200 product credit.

Works of Fine Art
Photographing people is my passion because you will never laugh, kiss, or even sneeze the same way twice. I do not only want to simply make a visual record of the day, but help you relive the emotions, beauty and truth in your life when you see the images.
My art begins with my camera. Some moments are so fleeting, I can't imagine holding those things in my mind long enough to get them down on a canvas. The goal of my fine art work is to first convey truth - and, second, to reveal beauty. Being in the right spot at the right time during your portrait session means I'll get the best shots to turn into fine art that you will proudly hang on your wall.
What better way to show off your beautiful portland oregon portrait photography with the fine art of a canvas printing with acrylic highlights? Imagine a custom watercolor painting of your first kiss! How often do you see couples break out their wedding photos? With fine art portrait photography, those moments live forever.
