Stop by and celebrate our new studio at 110 E Martin Street tomorrow afternoon from 3-7PM during Christmas on Main Street Martinsburg

We will be offering a complimentary family portrait (texted to you same day) to all who stop in and say hello!

While our downtown location will primarily be used for bo***ir and glam, this is our first event in the new space and I couldn't think of a better thing than to celebrate with all who attend, as well as our EDP family.

So while you're all dressed up for the tree lighting, pop in and let us snap a picture to remember it by!

*** pets are not able to join us in studio at this time ***

Somehow we have a handful of appointments still available today. Who wants photos with Santa?

As the year comes to a close, we want to give everyone an update on this year's pet contest.

Calendars and coffee table books that were ordered will be arriving this month (on their way!) and you will be contacted for pick-up.
The calendars include the Top 13 pets
The books include all 24 finalists

We made donations this morning to Rescue Me WV, Briggs Adoption, and Hampshire County Pet Adoption -- as voted on by you all earlier this year --- based on calendar/book sales.

If you'd like to continue supporting local rescues, we will have another photo with Santa event next Saturday the 22nd with Shady's Paw Animal Rescue in Wi******er, VA. You can contact them to schedule your time slot!

2026 will look a bit different in how we support local rescues, nonprofits and other important organizations in our area, but know that it is a constant mission that is close to my heart and thus the studio. Stay tuned for updates!

Thank you to everyone who entered, voted, purchased, donated, and just showed up in some capacity this year. You are the heart of our community and I couldn't do any of this without you.

FT. Roscoe, our cover feature this year!

Hey friends!

I’ve been getting a bunch of referrals lately (thank you! 🥹), so I just wanted to pop in with a little update.

These days, I’m mostly focused on women’s portraiture — think glam, bo***ir, confidence-boosting magic. If that’s what you’re looking for, you can find all the good stuff over in our private group >>> Goddess Society | Fine Art Glam by Erica Danile Photography WV, VA, MD, PA+
and on our public page: https://www.facebook.com/EDPBoudoir/

BUT if you’re here for family, pet, or kiddo portraits... you're still in the right place. I do a limited number of those each season, and yes... fall + holiday sessions are happening now! So if you’re hoping to get something on the books, don’t wait too long.

Shoot me a message any time...whether it’s for a gift, a legacy session, or just because you want to freeze time a little bit. I’m here for it.

xo,
Erica
(and, the reimagined, Erica Danile Photography)

PS. Thank you to all of the women and families who have trusted me, followed me, and continue to support me as I shift gears a bit this year. Life is too short to not follow every passion project you feel called to.

Our website has seen a little bit of a make over, but you can find family friendly content at: www.ericadanilephotography.com/family/

Luxury bo***ir and glamour for the woman becoming her own muse
Full-service from start to finish offering hair, makeup, wardrobe, posing, and more...

Feeling festive? This year we have a few dates available for portraits with Santa. Bring your little ones - furry or human.
On November 22nd, full proceeds go to Shady's Paw Animal Rescue

Did you hear?! This spring we wrapped up our pet contest.

Here’s who took the top spots:

🥇 Reid – First Place
This guy was all charm—playful, energetic, and showing off tricks like he was born for the spotlight. Reid chose Hampshire County Pet Adoption Program to receive his donation.

🥈 Josie – Second Place
Josie started off shy, but once she warmed up, she turned into a total natural. Sweet, soulful, and totally irresistible. She selected Rescue Me WV as her nonprofit.

🥉 Roscoe – Third Place
Roscoe’s smile never stopped. This happy-go-lucky boy brought so much joy to the studio—and now, he’s also your 2026 calendar cover star! Roscoe’s donation will go to Briggs Animal Adoption Center.

We are thrilled to be gifting our Top 3...
A free 2026 Pet Calendar
A 5x7 gift print from their session
A custom certificate
$750 studio credit toward a future session
A featured spotlight on my social media
PLUS...
The goodies mentioned below

Where Your Support Is Going
Thanks to your votes and preorders, we’re splitting the total donations evenly among:
🐾 Hampshire County Pet Adoption Program
🐾 Rescue Me WV
🐾 Briggs Animal Adoption Center

Orders Are NOW OPEN!
You can now officially order:
📆 2026 Pet Calendars – $20 ($5 from each calendar donated)

A Few Extra Surprises…
Every finalist will receive a mini session in 2025, including 2 digital images of their choice—because they totally earned another moment in the spotlight!

And their friends?
Anyone who books a session in 2025 and mentions one of these finalist cuties will receive a $500 voucher toward a luxury session with us.

Thank you again for being part of something so meaningful. Whether you voted, shared, or supported from afar—you helped us turn smiles into support for animals who need it most. We couldn't do all of this without you.

Wow, motherhood looks good on you.
Just because May is wrapping up doesn’t mean mom should fade into the background. She belongs in the frame this year—feeling seen, celebrated, and absolutely stunning.

We handle every detail—hair, makeup, wardrobe, styling, location planning, and posing—so all you have to do is show up and breathe.

No stress. No guesswork. Just beautiful, heartfelt memories made with mom—not just of her.

Treat her (or yourself) to a luxury family photo experience that makes her feel like the goddess she is.

✨ MUSE CALL ✨
CALLING ALL BEAUTIFUL LADIES OF THE TRI-STATE AREA (AND BEYOND)

This year we've dove head first into the world of women's portraiture. Recently we announced the creation of a separate page to follow, Goddess Society. Now we need your help again!
We’re preparing to launch our new Goddess Society website this summer—and I’m looking for a few incredible women to help bring it to life.

We’ll be photographing our newest sets—some soft and romantic, some bold and bo***ir—and I’m opening up a handful of deeply discounted sessions for those willing to let us feature their images on our website and socials.

This isn’t a casting call for professional models.
It’s an invitation for everyday women who want to feel seen, powerful, and artfully photographed in a space that’s built for their story.

Whether you’re drawn to glam in our glorious gowns or want to go full-blown bo***ir, this experience is tailored to your energy.

📍 Sessions will be held in the Martinsburg studio
💋 Hair + makeup included
👗 Wardrobe options available
💌 Discounted session fee + reduced retainer
✨ Only a few spots available

If this speaks to you—even if you’re a little nervous—I’d love to hear from you.
Email me at [email protected] with a little bit more about why you'd love to do this.

Let’s create something beautiful together. 🖤
