Newberg Family & Wedding Photography {Laura & Michael Sneak Peek}

November 18, 2008 – 12:34 pm

Not too long ago I was contacted by a local couple about shooting their Christmas time wedding. I don’t usually book anything around the holidays but I agreed to meet with them since they were literally right down the road. I am so glad I did. Laura & Micheal are so sweet, and their whole family is adorable. It also helped that when I walked into their home it was covered with beautiful family photos. When people are big photography fans to begin with, you know it is going to be fun working with them!

This last weekend we meet up for a joint engagement & family session. I had a blast meeting all the kids and seeing them together. Even the grumpiest teen was smiling by the end of the morning. :)

Here are a few of my favorites so far:

The whole family, I can not wait for the wedding it is going to be fun.

killenpeek-13

( I am pretty sure I can hear the kids saying “Ewww Gross” right about now, but how cute are they!)

killenpeek-12

killenpeek-10

Speaking of sweet, how sweet are these two. These soon to be step brothers made me smile.

hats-set

Ok there is a funny story behind this one. Laura brought this cute hat for the baby of the family to wear. Typical little guy style he was not into the hat at all. But one of the older kids jokingly put it on, and we ended up getting every single family member in it except the one it was intended for. ;) I know I am easily amused but this cracks me up.

And here is the little guy. This special little boy really stole my heart.

killenpeek-20

Our soon to be bride & groom again.

Laura & Michael, I am really looking forward to your big day. Your whole family was an absolute joy to hang out with. Thanks for bearing the cold morning with me. I will have more from our morning session for you very soon!

Cute and Chubby, just how I like them {Portland Oregon Baby Photographer}

November 14, 2008 – 10:31 am

Lets take a walk down memory lane. Do any of you remember this beautiful belly?  And then this little tiny brand new still in the hospital peanut? And then this amazing newborn?

Yeah me too, some of my all time favorite images there. And now this amazing family is back for more, and just as beautiful as ever.  Just see for your self how little Mr. Big has, well, gotten BIG.

Can you believe that is even the same baby?!

madden6mopeek-29

Such an awesome chunky lump.

madden6mopeek-28

madden6mopeek-27

Such a sweet baby, and so good for me. I guess this is what I get when I train them early!

madden6mopeek-30

Kisses for “big brother”

And for something completely different, we did some photos of the whole family down the road at the most amazing setting. I have had my eye on this side road for a while now, so when Mr. Chubby’s mama suggested it I jumped at the chance.

madden6mopeek-22

Stunning location, beautiful family, does it get any better? It also helps these are 3 of my most favorite people too.

madden6mopeek-20

:)

madden6mopeek-21

Just adore them.

So there you have it, a bit of a long peek but I could not help my self. Amber and Greg thanks for being so flexible this weekend and daring the Oregon weather with me. I adore you two, and cherish your friendship beyond words. Thanks for helping me make some special images, I hope you love them as much as I do.

Sweet baby L is back and cuter than ever {Salem Baby Photographer}

November 13, 2008 – 12:47 am

I got to spend some time with one of my all time favorite families this weekend. You might remember sweet baby L  and her beautiful parents from this post a few months ago.  Well the little Diva is back on my blog and even more beautiful! We battled the crazy Oregon weather and had another session this weekend. We started out at the Salem Carousel for a little something different and man was it a fun setting! I got to capture little L’s first pony ride. She was a perfect and full of smiles the whole morning.

Here are a few of my favs so far:

layla6mo-20

We thought this particular horse was appropriate since Mom & Dad met serving our country in Iraq.

faces-set

Such an animated little diva, she was talking to me all morning!

layla6mo-10

Such a beautiful family. Makes my job almost too easy.

layla6mo-11

Umm can I say how cute she is again?

layla6mo-12

love all the smiles

layla6mo-17

I also adore her little hawk here, adds so much to her personality.

layla6mo-18

I just wanted to eat her up.

So there you have it! A bit of a long peek, I just could not hold back. Michelle I hope you are liking them so far, thanks for daring the Oregon weather with me. I had a great time seeing you and your little one again. I can not wait to see how she grows over the next year. I will have the whole set for you very soon!

perfection at 9 days old {Portland Oregon Newborn Photography}

November 11, 2008 – 4:10 pm

I love all of my clients, but I have to admit the tiniest ones always steal my heart. This little guy was no exception.  It had been a few months since my last newborn and I was itching to get my hands on a teeny tiny one.

Meet little Mr. A, isn’t he just delicious!

newbie-10-copy-for-web

He was just so good for me.

newbie-12

Even a smile!

newbie-14

He was pretty happy to be in daddy’s strong hands can you tell. His eyes were just sparkling.

newbie-18

He slept so well for me, even though I kept moving him around. Really this is why we do newborns in the first two weeks, while they are still all curly and sleepy.

newbie-20

And just one of the whole family. They seem to be settling into being a new Mommy and Daddy pretty well :)

A & O it was a pleasure to meet you and your perfect little boy. I can not wait to show you the entire set. I had a wonderful time, thanks for letting me rearrange your furniture to get these, you have such a beautiful home. And with that I would love to offer you a comment challenge. If you can get 30 comments on this post I would be happy to give you $25 off a set of holiday cards or birth announcements. I can not wait to see these in print!

I will have the whole set for you soon, enjoy that beautiful little man.

Beautiful Belly {Portland Oregon Maternity Photography}

November 7, 2008 – 12:54 am

Oh how I have been missing the bellies lately. It has been a while since I had the pleasure of doing a maternity session and I have to admit when Amber called me to schedule hers I was excited to point my lens at her belly. Amber is a sweet heart to say the least, and she was a joy to have in front of my camera.

Here are a few of my favorites so far, and really truly it was hard to pick.

Little baby A is going to be a very lucky boy. He is so loved already.

pretty new things make me happy

November 6, 2008 – 12:49 pm

Good Morning all,

I thought I would write a little blog post to announce a few things.

First check out a few new holiday cards I will be adding to my list!

vintage-chocolate-for-web

boys-flowers-for-web

Aren’t they beautiful! I have a few more in the collection in the works and I will be adding them to the holiday card page shortly. If you are interested in holiday cards this year let me know asap! All orders need to be in by the 3rd week in November in order to be send out the beginning of December. If you are anything like me you want to just get them on their way and be done with it to enjoy the holidays!

The second is that I have one more weekend holiday session left in all of November! If you or someone you know wants to get family or kids portraits done before the season is over call me soon. I will be all full and not accepting any one else very soon. I keep the first few weeks of December free for orders and last min reschedules due to weather so now is the time!

I hope you are all doing well and enjoying the flavors of the fall. I know my self I can not get enough of the pumpkin flavored coffee drinks. Ahhh I love this time of year!

cute kids + amazing location + stunning fall colors = happy emily {Portland Oregon Kids Photography, sneak peek}

November 1, 2008 – 8:53 pm

I am always excited about new locations, and last weekend was no exception. When I got a call asking if I had time for a kids session at a beautiful local winery I was excited to see the place. We walked around Sunday evening for just under 2 hours and I think I could have shot for at least 2 more hours with all the beautiful buildings and locations there.  Oh and it also helped that my subjects were two of the cutest little kids I have had all season. :)

So for their Mom I am posting a quick little sneak peek. It was hard to just pick a few, I am so looking forward to finishing the whole set very soon!

Here are a few of my favorites so far:

up-the-isle

See what a beautiful location to shoot these beautiful little kids!

mykid-106

This little dude cracked me up. The kiddo is so cute! He made me work for these smiles but man it was worth it.

sabine-tire-set

Miss S was so sweet. Quite the princess in her tutu and leopard print shoes. I am going to have to track down a pair of those for my little one. I love it when kids bring the personality, and boy she had loads of it.

picking-for-blog

We had fun picking grapes from Grandma’s field. I loved the sun flair here with the perfect setting sun light.

sister-kisses-bw

And this one I just had to post. It reminds me of one I noticed in grandma’s house from a year ago.  Little dude’s face just cracked me up!

Annie I had a great time meeting you guys over the weekend. Your kiddos are adorable, and your whole family was so great. I also enjoyed the bottle of wine with dinner thanks! I will have the entire set for you very soon. I am saving a few of my very favorites of the two of them together in case they make it to the holiday cards. I don’t want to ruin the surprise! And of course another web savvy family means another comment challenge. If you can get 30 people to comment on this post I would be happy to give you $25 off a set of holiday cards!
