Rebecca Ellison Photography bio picture
  • it’s the little things…

    I'm a bit goofy and always ready to have a good time - I love making clients laugh...it just so happens it's usually at me and some random thing I am doing to get "the shot" - If it's nice outside, I guarantee I will be found sitting in a patch of sunlight soaking in the rays - I tend to miss speak right when I am trying to be sassy, ... so I just end up sounding silly - I love all the noises a new baby makes be it cute or gross - My socks never match and I am proud of it - I avoid cleaning the bathroom like it's the plague. It comes from growing up with two brothers and always being on bathroom duty - I found out the hard way that garlic does NOT compliment everything... and now my husband doesn't let me in the kitchen unsupervised - I still get giddy and jittery before every wedding I photograph - I once thought the biggest gift of being self employed was making my own hours, now I know it's the luxury it gives me to raise my son (born April 2011) without the need of daycare - I love riding my bike, but don't have the constitution to make myself work out regularly - I believe that following your dream is not the easiest path but is definitely the most rewarding one. My dreams since I was 18 was to find the man of my dreams (check), raise a family (check) and create images for a living (check) - oh... and if you want to make me laugh, tell me a poop joke. Works EVERY time.

OSPwest

Two weekends ago I participated in an awesome photography workshop called OSPwest. OSP is opensourcephoto.net which is an awesome professional photography forum that I am part of, and every year each region puts together a workshop of sorts where we all get together and talk shop all weekend. This year OSPwest was scheduled in Seattle, which was awesome since that meant my travel was practically ziltch!  The greatest thing about OSPwest is that it is put on by members for members and the amount of time that people invested to make it rock was amazing.

The weekend included talks by the likes of Gene Higa , Kiss Wedding Books and Jim Garner. All companies that do amazing things for the wedding industry. We also put on shoots where 2o photographers go out and photograph the same models and give tips on style and technique. Many people looked at us weird on the streets because we looked like this:

in the middle of downtown Seattle! One woman actually asked if this bride had hired that many photographers ! So funny.

I did three shoots. The bridal shoot with the model Britany, then an engagement shoot with Jessica and Ben, and a night shoot with Stacy.  All the models were great sports! Thanks a bunch for letting us shoot you all day!!

Here are some of my faves
