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.

Natalie + Steven | Engaged


Natalie and Steven are getting married this July at the Pan Pacific Hotel. From what they’ve told me, the wedding is going to be spectacular. These two are so in sync that what else could it be? They joked and laughed a bunch through the shoot and were down for any of my ideas, no matter what or where I took them. I love being around people with such spirit as these two. It’s contagious and how can you not have a great time?

I love doing shoots at Pike Place when the weather is questionable, and then turns beautiful. The great thing about it is there are less crowds.

Don’t get me wrong… there are definitely still clouds… they are just smaller.

This way there is less weaving through people and when I get an idea for a shot, I can get it with minimal “watchers”. This was what it was like last Friday when I met Steven and Natalie downtown and it was glorious!

Enjoy! And please feel free to comment

Mickey McGuire - Fantastic, should just about sum it up. My favorite is the fire escape shot (where there were three pics in a row). I can’t wait for the wedding photos.

Great work Rebecca, I can see why they chose you.

Barbara Andrulonis - Natalie, you look like a professional model in these pictures. Love the way you look through the camera to…us! My favorite pictures are the Post Alley and the shadow shots. But really they are all fantastic. Rebecca has an interesting perspective.

Sheri Liguori - They’re all good…but I especially like (in order from the top) shots 1, 4 (the 3-shot from above) and 6. And 10 is cool because it shows both of y’all’s dimples!

Shawna - love, love, LOVE them!!! I really like the almost candid city shots: the kiss at the cafe; the fire esccape; the shot through the window; on the stairs under the tree and the silouette..so pretty!!
