A Little More About Rebecca Hunnicutt
Rebecca Hunnicutt is a lifestyle photographer specializing in joy filled environmental portraits of children and families based in Portland Oregon. She also takes modern personality filled school photos of today’s contemporary kids at multiple Portland area preschools.
As an educator, Rebecca teaches photographers how to use composition and color to transform ordinary locations into extraordinary images. Rebecca started her photography journey in high school on black and white film, worked at a 1 hr photo and a portrait studio in college, but then became a pediatric nurse practitioner. Rebecca really honed her photography skills after her oldest daughter was born in 2010 and moving overseas to Asia in 2012. That change in location and extensive travel lead Rebecca to developing her unique style. As a mom to two girls Rebecca is proud to show that through hard work and dedication you can have the career of your dreams.
