Ventura County Photographer

Hey there! I'm Erica

I live in California, but I am a Florida Gator through and through. I majored in journalism and am a news junkie. I love cooking, sewing, running, and adventuring with my family.

I am a lifelong lover of art and all things creative. The walls of my home are filled with art in all mediums - from photos to watercolors, and I love to work with clients who also value art.

As a mom myself, I know, it’s a lot of work to get everyone ready and to pray for happy children and no sickness when photo time rolls around. That’s why I make the process as painless as possible for you by taking on as much of the mental load and planning as I can.

Ventura County is full of gorgeous photo locations: the beaches that stretch from Ventura to Malibu, the mountains that surround Camarillo and Thousand Oaks, and all the pockets of beauty that can be found in between. As a professional portrait photographer, I cannot believe these are the types of locations we’re blessed with.

"I cannot say enough great things about Erica. My family has used her three times (newborn photography, mommy and me session, and portraits for my son). She is great with kids and is able to get them to come out of their shell when photographing them. We will definitely use her again in the future.

"Finding a school photographer for young children is difficult. Open for over 20 years, we are happy to recommend Erica Hurlburt for her services. She captures the child's essence, and our families love her photos so much they use them for holiday cards! She is professional, personable, and very easy to work with."

"Erica did an amazing job of mixing a family portrait session with pictures for my daughter's first birthday. She had multiple locations to choose from and helpful suggestions on clothing, etc. We also had some crazy scheduling stuff happen and she was super flexible. All of the above is just a bonus - her photography is phenomenal!! The pictures were even better than I ever could have imagined."
