Elisa Elgstrom Photography






Elisa, tell us about your business?

specialize in natural light documentary style photography for families, children and newborns and I love it! I believe in it because it is authentic and meaningful and photographs should tell the story of your loved ones. Whether happy, sad, funny, exhausting or exhilarating. A chocolate covered mouth, a sweet hug, or the precious bath time ritual before bed. These seemingly ordinary moments are what you are more likely to emotionally connect to when you look back on them.



Why did You start a photography business?

I started my business because I believe that people are so busy these days that the precious little moments within families disappear in a flash. Wouldn't it be wonderful to look back on them in years to come and remember exactly how you were and what you felt on a typical day in your family’s life? I love helping my clients freeze these moments forever as a keepsake for generations to come.



What solutions do you offer?

I offer packages as part of my service, which makes it very easy for clients as I know how busy parents are these days. They receive digital photographs, an online gallery, images in color and B&W as well as the option of print products like photo books.



How is your photography different?

I feel that posed photography may very well have its place, but there is a new wave of image making that is hitting our streets. Real life captured just as it is. I make pictures that don’t require you to say cheese or sit in an uncomfortably awkward position. I pretty much hang out with you while I snap away and create natural light photographs of you and your loved ones while you go about your day. And that could be an image as simple as your children waiting impatiently for their next serve of Sunday morning pancakes.

HAVE YOU HEARD OF MY COTTON CUBBY? 

 
 

Do you remember as child throwing a blanket over the dining room table, taking in a few toys or beloved possessions, sometimes the family dog or cat? How much fun was that!!!
How many hours of make-believe were spent in these secret, yet simple home-made structures? Is your child getting this magical opportunity to play these very basic but childhood shaping imaginative games?
  
My Cotton Cubby...is a portable cubbyhouse with designs for both boys and girls, so they can enjoy good old-fashioned imaginative play – either individually, with their siblings, friends and even their grandparents!  The great thing is the simplicity – you don’t need poles, just a table – everyone’s got a table, right? insatiable appetite for imaginative indoor play. 
My Cotton Cubby was the brainchild of mother of two young children, Natalie Atkinson, was inspired by her daughter Rylee's insatiable appetite for imaginative indoor play. Always looking for  an alternative to computer games and eager to encourage stimulating, technology-free games, but tired of the mess some "creative" play leaves behind; she was inspired by the eternal magic that cubbyhouses have for both boys and girls, started to get creative...My Cotton Cubby is the result.
