    Happy Father’s Day!

    Posted inmy kid,my life

    I am an extremely luck girl, true story.

    I have an amazing job I adore, fantastic clients, a rocken almost 4 year old that rocks my world, and a freaking fantastic hubby. It’s Father’s day so I asked this sweet man what he would like for his day, I threw out some options. A BBQ? Frisbee golf? A trip to Powells? A hike in the gorge? I gave him any choice, and you know what he chose?

    This:

    This is our soon to be new kitchen. The kitchen and house remodel has been going on for a while, and you would think he would want a day off? But no, last night he was out there late finishing up our beautiful kitchen flooring, and today he and my father are installing the cabinets!He is the best right? I mean know he loves all this stuff, it is fun, but I am sure he would have also enjoyed a day off and a little pampering.

    So here’s to you baby, to my partner in crime and the best daddy a little red head could ask for. You are amazing, and we love you to bits. Happy Fathers Day. :)

    And a very happy fathers day to you all too! All my lovely baby clients this year celebrating their first fathers day, and those who are veterans! I hope it is filled with love and joy!

    a quick break from our regularly scheduled programing…

    Posted inmy kid,my life,photography geekyness

    We take a break from our regularly scheduled posting cute families & beautiful couples to bring you late breaking news…

    my kid is cute!

    The little redheaded diva had her very first dance recital this evening and her oooooyo gooooooy mama in between tears of pride had to snap a few. She did a fabulous job, in between perfect little ballet & tap steps she even made time to mug for the camera! Such a little goofball. Well while these are really just a few snapshots I had to share!

    hermoves

    She had absolutely no problem being out front of a crowd, yeah I think I know where she gets that from. ;)

    set

    Yes that is my girl sticking out her tongue and being a goof ball, I think she get that trait from her daddy.

    She wanted to go to bed wearing the polka dotted tutu and sequined hair band but I talked her out of it. I am sure we will see more of this particular outfit again very soon. :)

    Have I mentioned she is cute?

    Thanks for indulging me guys, more client photos soon to come!

    family date May 2009

    Posted inkids,my kid,my life,photography geekyness,Uncategorized

    With our busy schedules this time of year the emily g family is trying to make a point to fit “family dates” into the mix.  This so no small feat with work, shooting, and nap schedules but this weekend we had GREAT success. We grabbed the kiddo, the back up camera, and some sunscreen and headed down to the Portland Rose Festival. While I am usually weary of carnies and parking lot food we had a blast. They had tons of great stuff to look at (and photograph), rides suitable for an average height almost 4 year old, and most importantly cotton candy. We were only there for about 2 hours, but it was the perfect amount of time to get our family date on.

    Here are some silly images from our little adventure:

    us

    check out our matching chuck taylors, yep that’s how we roll. ;)

    We had way too much fun with the photo booths there as well, even if we all look evil in the resulting images.

    happymoments

    in the middle you can see the red head’s “motorcycle face”. She kills me, she was so excited every time we got to a ride she was actually tall enough for.

    and on the far right check it out! It is the illusive husband, he is actually in this posting twice. I was teased recently by a colleague about how he is not on facebook and not visible on the blog, so here ya go! Handsome devil isn’t he. ;)

    mishmash

    The kiddo loved all the sites & sounds. She also scored a new “baby” that she promptly named, get this, Christina Agulara! No clue where that came from, totally had the husby and I in tears laughing about it.

    oh and in case you want to know, I rock at skee ball.

    oh-the-drama

    oh the drama, her little face is so expressive.  I am pretty sure she was begging for cotton candy here!

    All in all we had a fantastic family date. If you are in PDX I highly recommend an evening at the Rose Festival, just a few hours is fun and highly entertaining.

    Lots more coming on the blog this week, beautiful babies, cute couples and more. Check back!

    my kid is cute may 2009 addition

    Posted inmy kid,my life,photography geekyness

    I was told by certain friends and family members that it had been too long since I had posted an image of my little red haired diva on the blog. So here you go folks, miss thang in all her sassy glory. We have been enjoying the warm weather around here these days. She is getting full use of the neighborhood park while the sun is out, I snapped these on a quick visit.

    Not a real session, just some cuteness that had to be shared. :)

    juiceboxset-for-blog

    she gets her goofiness from her father for sure.

    swinging

    I am pretty sure that if there were a mac-n-cheese & juice dispenser installed she would live on this swing.

    trouble

    and this is her favorite shirt, (Trouble Maker) fitting no?

    Much more to come on the blog this week, a few more peeks and even another wedding slide show perhaps! Thanks for looking at my goofy kid.

    when photographer girls attack

    Posted inmy life,photography geekyness,Uncategorized

    See what happens when you set up a night shoot with a bunch of other photographers and the model is late?

    ospw_09_002_forweb

    You get silly images of other photographers (or your self ahem).  Yep that is me, the lovely Kacy Jo & the ever so fabulous Jenifer. In my own defense the cat like pose was all Kacy.

    Photo taken by the incomparable ” Cupcake Keizer” aka Brandon Perron.

    Happy Monday folks, I thought you all might like a giggle at my expense.  ;)

    I will be posting lots this week, I have the other half of Michael & Whitney‘s super amazing wedding coming up, a over the top bombshell maternity session and a few other fun bits thrown in. Oh and actual photos of the model from the shoot above. I am still catching up on those fun photos from Seattle. Lots to share so keep clicking back ya’ll!

    Happy Monday!
