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.

John | Class of 2010

I love John’s family. They hired me a in 2008 to photograph their daughters wedding (which you can see here) and I found out then that they are the most genuine people no matter what, so when Kim called me because John was needing his senior photos, I was stoked. We met back in October to get the photo for the yearbook out of the way, but schedule the actual session for this weekend as October in Seattle tends to be a bit drab!

I met John again this weekend at the weather Gods smiled down upon us for our shoot by the water. John was relaxed and having a good time, even though we both know most guys aren’t all that into getting their senior photos done! We still found a way to have some fun!

We joked and laughed and ran around looking for cool pockets of light, and this here is a couple from the day.

As always, feel free to comment!!

And thanks to the lovely Jen MacNiven for her assistance!

Karine Zwicki - You did a great job with these! There is not a single one with the characteristic akwardness of senior photos ;) He looks relaxed and comfortable- they are really good.
