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.

1 year old | Keza

I can’t believe it’s been one year since I photographed little Keza at 5 days old!!!

But, time seems to get faster and faster each year, and when Katie called me about photographing Keza’s one year session, I was super excited to see how this little one grew!

Check out how adorable she was when she was a newborn here!

Katie really wanted to involve her mom in the shoot to do a “generations” type of theme. I loved the idea and was happy to invite grandma to come along!

Little Keza is an adorable girl with quite the personality already shining through. She was skeptical of me at first, like kids always are, but after a while her curiosity of me and my big black camera won out over her shyness. As you can see in the picture below, she wanted to touch my camera, and to get an inquisitive look like that I figured I could handle a little finger print on my lens. Thank goodness for macro lenses because she was CLOSE!

This girl is adorable now, but will be a knockout  I am sure when she gets older. Check out the eyelashes any lady would be jealous of!child photography

To add to  her curiosity, she was all about the water once she realized how close to it we were. I LOVE the shot of her shocked face when she put her feet into the  water for the first time. It took Katie holding her back to not have her happily jump full on into the water!child photographychild photographychild photographychild photography

I love the generations idea Katie had of bringing her mom. Especially because when Katie is working, she hangs out with grandma a lot! Grandma is an important person and I am very happy we got to include her!

Thanks again Katie, Keza and grandma! I can’t wait to see little Keza next time!
