About The Photographer

Hi! My name is Erika Blackwell and I am photographer of Center of Attention Photography. Located in Northern Michigan. My blog is a way for everyone to view some of my favorite images from recent sessions and get to know me! I am the very VERY proud mommy to Braylan. I LOVE what I do and I hope you can tell! These are not JUST take pictures I take. I create memories... I pour my heart into my work. I genuinely care about my clients and get to know them and learn what they like and dislike. I am an artist. A business woman. I love to have fun. I love to sing. Dance. Make crazy sounds to get those smiles. I am very open! I work into the night even though my son hates to sleep. I LOVE oreos and soymilk. I dream big. I have tons of ideas. I cry during touching ceremonies and awesome reception speeches. I try not to be messy but it happens. I have so many new faces to meet this year and just thinking about it makes me excited!

OUR LITTLE SLUGGER

Thursday, June 2nd, 2011

Since Braylan has been born I have tried to take his picture out in my studio so many times. Having him in December made this into a whole process. It was freezing out. We both were so tired all the time and I just wouldn’t ask my husband for help. Now that’s it’s nice out and he LOVES it outside you will be seeing Braylan James a lot more on here. A couple weeks ago I woke up early and decided to take some baseball pictures. It was a last minute thing and Braylan did amazing! My husband was super helpful and now I have so many more ideas. I think with my own doing one theme once every couple weeks will make a happier baby (and mama.) I was feeling like I didn’t have enough pictures of him since I am lucky enough to own a photography business. Tomorrow I’m going to try again if it doesn’t rain. (My favorite from the session is up in my header pictures.) He just melts my heart!!

I know I haven’t been writing anything with my posts because I could go on and on about each session. :) I had to add a little something to this one. Aside from being super adorable Bo was born on the same day… in the SAME hospital only a couple hours after I had Braylan. I had no idea until they brought him to the studio. Little birthday buddies!

My big 4 month old baby!

Thursday, April 7th, 2011

This stage is so fun…. Braylan is learning everyday! He can do so many fun things now. Roll, belly laugh, play peek-a-boo, baby talk, tries to sit up… What is not fun is him teething! Poor boy is so young and is getting teeth. He puts everything in his mouth.

I can’t wait for the weather to warm up so I can start shooting outside again! I love photos outside.

Braylan just loves a good photoshoot!! hahaha…. someday!

Update

Monday, January 10th, 2011


This past month has gone by in the blink of an eye! My baby is growing soooo much each day. I’m trying to enjoy every second before I have to go back to work!

Changes will be happening when I return from maternity leave. I will only be accepting 3 photo shoots per week and 3 weddings per month. I will be extending my two week time frame for editing sessions to 2-3 weeks. Online viewing galleries will up for 30 days from the time they are uploaded and photos must be ordered or a CD will have to be purchased with 60 of the uploading date or they will no longer be available.
