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.

The Lamb Family

I love the Lamb family. They are like my own family after all this time. To give a bit of history, I met the Lambs 8 years ago. My husband Pete had been a normal staple in the Lamb house growing up as he was good friends with the twins, Thomas and Berkley. Thomas and Berkley are not identical… but they looked like it when they were growing up…so it was just easier for people to call them the twins then figure out which was which I guess:)

Anyway… about 8 years ago, Pete was living at the Lambs house and they graciously let me come take over their house also. I think Ros and Linda were used to that at that point seeing that they had 6 kids total. The Lambs became family and have been there through my relationship and marriage to Pete, so I was super stoked when Thomas called up and asked if I could shoot their whole family. It had been years since everyone was back together, as Thomas and Berk decided to wander over to Wisconsin to live. We are devising a way to get them back… and Berk’s awesome new fiance is coming too… they just don’t know it yet:)

Well, a family photo with this crowd is no small thing… when dealing with 18 people. But fun none the less! This family loves eachother so much that all they do is laugh together which is contagious… not to mention the AMAZING food that Linda puts together (my mouth is still watering from that corn and ribs….num num num)
