Welcome!

I'm Rebeca Yasuda, Photographer

I am a photographer who captures the transformation of motherhood to help families preserve these special moments for the time when these days will be only memories.

Intimate photography for the sacred transition of motherhood.

I’ve birthed three babies at home and am eternally drawn to the special beauty in the transformation of motherhood. It’s raw. It’s vulnerable. And it changes you down to the depths of your soul. Mothers vibrate with this energy, and I show this with my photography.  I use natural light to capture moments of intimacy and love of yourself and those closest to you. No flashes, no props–your family is beautiful as is, and anything else is just distraction. Your raw vulnerability moves me beyond words, and I recreate this feeling for you with my photos.

About

I have received trainings from The Beauty in Birth and Birth Becomes You in photography, videography, and editing for birth photographers. I have received in-person training from Spinning Babies, Breech without Borders, as well as DONA trainings for birth professionals in breast feeding, childbirth, and doula care. I am trained and certified as a birth doula through International Doula Institute. In 2012, I stepped into the world of birth as a student midwife and fell in love. Birth brings you face-to-face with your inner truth in a way that nothing else can. You can’t avoid it. No matter how you give birth, you are transformed forever. The raw emotion and vulnerability of birth feeds my soul. I MUST capture these moments–they are some of the most sacred of our lives. Moments of transition and transformation. One of my biggest honors is to document your expressions of love and courage as you meet this new soul in your life. Learn more about me on my website!

I HIGHLY recommend Rebeca for any of your photography needs - she is so gifted and it’s rare to find such a pure soul who is so invested in the work that they take their time and give you some quality work and beyond. We will definitely be working with her again. Thank you so much Rebeca!
Rebeca is hands down an amazing photographer! I gave birth to my first child in May 2021. I am SO thankful I stepped out of my comfort zone because those photos were nothing short of beautiful! Pictures that I thought I would cringe at, gave me happy goosebumps. They are once-in-a-lifetime memories that I’m forever thankful she captured. Thank you, Rebeca!
