I spent my last Saturday afternoon standing in the rain, getting drenched and freezing my tush off…
but OMG it was totally worth it to get this….

More from this super fun surprise engagement I was hired to capture very soon.

What can I say about Amy & Greg, they are sweet, creative, endlessly stylish & know how to throw a party. (You may remember Amy & Greg from their fun engagement session not too long ago.) These two knew what they wanted, and put together one of the best weddings I have ever had the opportunity to capture. When we first met Amy said she had a clear vision of what she wanted but was having a hard time finding the right vendors to pull it all off. Imminently I knew Amy needed to meet my girl Stephanie of Petalos. Stephanie does floral & event design, but that really does not cover it. She has a super creative mind, and the know how to pull it off. She is an artist. After these two met I started getting all manner of pinterest links, styling boards, and excited voice-mails. Yeah, I knew it was going to be a good wedding.
The big day was held at the Hotel DeLuxe, and every detail and moment went off seamlessly. Amy & Greg celebrated with friends and family into the new year. The flowers, the food, the favors, all so much fun.
Aside from the styled elements and details, (and man they were amazing!) the wedding was heartfelt and incredibly moving. Every detail from the officiate’s speech to the kiss at midnight made me so darn happy to spend my new years with this special couple. I loved getting to know their entire family and loving groups of friends. It was an amazing day, and I am so excited to share it with all of you!
Here are a few of the vendors that made the day so special:
Event planning, paper goods, coordination & floral: Petalos
Venue: Hotel De Luxe
Amy’s Dress: Ivy & Astor from the English Dept
Bridesmaid dresses – Nordstrom
Food: Gracies on site
Music: Event Team Entertainment
Cake & Desserts: Le Cookie Monkey
On to the photos already!
You are comfortable right? This is going to be a LONG one kids…










Amy & Greg thank you again for having us out to capture your amazing wedding. It really was my pleasure to point my camera at you two again. From the first moments of getting ready, to the last kiss of the night it was an amazing day. I truly loved getting to know all of your friends and family. Weddings like yours remind me how much I love my job, and make me even more excited for all 2012 holds. I am so happy for you two, wish you all the joy in the world and much love in your life together. I hope you are loving your sneak peek. I have SO many more for you when the whole gallery is done.

As always I have been working on a year end post. It has taken a few days as my NYE was spent capturing an amazing wedding, and the following day was spent recouping & catching up on sleep & email.
So today it was time to take a look back on 2011. It was such an amazing year. So many people came in front of my lens, and it really was my honor to capture so many weddings, couples, babies and families. Plus quite a few head-shots, non-profit events and even a bridal show.We added in a studio space early in the year, and even changed logos and looks this year.
It really was just a fantastic year. I want to thank each and every one of you for your love ans support for emily g photography. This business really is an extension of my self and my family, and all of you friends, family and clients help me do what I love. THANK YOU!
Here are my favorites for 2011. I tried to pull at least one photo from each session. I hope I did not miss anyone!








here’s to an even better 2012!

I am not going to lie, I am sitting here in my office FREEZING. Just a few more sessions to finish up for 2011 though!
Right now I am working on a maternity session from just a few weeks back. The lovely expecting mama was one of my bride’s this summer and is just as stunning as she was on her wedding day. I just adored working with these two again.

You can check out their beautiful and warm summer wedding here.
I will be back to peek a few maternity photos soon.
