Jaxon is 2!

02.08.10

I know I say it all the time, but one of the best things about my job is watching little ones grow right before my lens. I have been photographing this little guy since he was just a cute belly bump. Then I got to meet him as a newborn, toddler and now full fledged little boy! Jaxon has stolen my heart for sure. He is sweet, smart, funny and has hands down the best little dude hair ever.

He came up to visit me in Newberg last weekend and we had a great time running around the George Fox campus. The same place in fact I did his Mom & Dad’s maternity photos a few years back!

Here are a few of my favorites so far:

such a hansom little man! I love his goofy faces too. Mama was very clear we had to capture the scrunched up nose. 🙂

I just adore this whole family. Such lovely folks!

seriously, his hair is just amazing. I also love his hazel eyes. The sun caught them just perfectly here.

Goofy boy!

how cute are they!

J man loved the stairs too! Kept Mom & Dad running the whole session.

he was also stoked we let him go to town in the puddles. I loved his little dinosaur boots!

and one last smile. Gah he melts me with that smile. 🙂

Julie & Vince thanks again for trekking all the way up to Newberg for our session. It was wonderful seeing you all again and hanging with your super cool little man. I also have to thank you again for the wicked cool baby gift. My little dude will proudly wear the converse when his feet get big enough (I will post photos, they hooked me up with the cutest baby shoes!). I hope you love the peek so far, much more in the gallery soon!

Baby S is One!

01.27.10

You remember this charming little dude from the summer right? Well over the past few months baby S has turned into less of a baby and more of a little boy. Still over the top cute, he is now also incredibly charming and fast! He was keeping on my toes for sure this past weekend while we ran around taking photos at McMennamin’s Kennedy School in NE Portland. It was great to see the whole family, hear about their amazing trip to Turkey this past fall and just hang out.

Check out a few of my favorite’s so far:

Gah that smile kills me, such a charmer!

he is also very much MOBILE, a fast crawler this one.

and so happy, especially when he has his favorite toy the soccer ball near by. Boy is going to be the next Beckam no doubt about it.

We had fun with the whole family, clearly he is a very loved little dude.

Don’t forget his BFF grandma! These two were adorable together.

🙂

Have I mentioned his smile is to die for? Such a charmer!

Again with the soccer ball. I think this one might be my favorite of the set. His eyes are just so stunning here.

And one last photo of the entire family. Such lovely people.

Jessica thanks again for meeting up for photos with little S and the whole family. I am so loving watching him grow up in front of the lens! He is just a darling little man! I hope you have a wonderful winter & spring, I look forward to hanging out with you all again this summer. I am sure by then he will be full on running, it will be a fun one for sure.

Mr. Charming is ONE!

01.17.10

I have been working with Mr. Charming and his family for a while now. It is always so amazing to see the little ones grow right in front of my lens. Well this last weekend I had the pleasure of meeting up with the family once again to celebrate the little man’s first birthday! I know I say it all the time, but seriously this kid just gets more and more adorable. Keeping me running the whole session and up and down the stairs more than a few times. Really with a smile like his, how could I not love every single moment. 🙂

his new big boy smile kills me, I just wanted to eat him up he is so sweet!

and so big now! walking and running around the house. No more baby crawling for this little man.

he might be on his way to big boy status, but he still has time to love on daddy.

and snuggles for mama too, even if it was just a super quick stop.

so much love here. 🙂

including love for the STAIRS! little man loves to climb the stairs, I just had to get a few of him in action. Buddy is fast too!

and one last photo of the whole family. Love, laughs and more love would really sum it up.

Big boy N happy birthday to you little man! I had an amazing year watching you grow! I can not wait to see you again this summer and see how big you can get! I hope you had lots of messy cake after I left. 🙂

Mama & Dad thanks again for having me in to capture your little man’s first year. It has been a pleasure working with you all, and seeing how the little guy grows. You all are such a lovely family, I look forward to seeing you all for many years to come.

I can not express in words how much I want to thank all of my wonderful friends, colleagues & clients for making 2009 an amazing year for Emily G Photography. Seriously you all rock, I had wonderful time working with all of you, and pointing my camera lens at some amazing things.

In no particular order, in no particular fashion here are some of my favorite images I created in 2009.

If you are still with me you are champ, that was a long one. 😉

Thank you all again for your love, support and time in 2009. I am excited to see what 2010 brings, I hope you will take the ride along with me. 🙂

I have the best clients ever…

11.20.09

You hear that? Yeah that is the sound of me gloating. Yeah nah nah nah my clients are awesome and I am not afraid to rub it in.

I have been working with this family for a few years now and like a fine wine or a really spicy pickle they just keep getting better! From belly, to newborn, to chubby baby, to little dude Mr. Madden continues to get even more fun to work with, and his parents are pretty awesome too. For this years holiday session they left it up to me to choose a spot that would work. We had already done home & a natural setting, so for this one we went more edgy and urban. I LOVE it when clients just trust me to run with an idea! Amber did a great job dressing the family & showed up looking amazing as usual. It is great when an idea comes together. 🙂

They were also super troopers that totally braved some crazy wind and sporadic rain. We were crossing our fingers all day, but it worked out beautifully.

So enough of my yapping eh, here are a few of my favorites so far:

they are so dang cute!

and Mr. M has gotten even cute. It is just ridiculous how adorable he is right.

and his parents are pretty nice to look at too. 😉

I love how Mr. M is a perfect mix of handsome daddy & beautiful mama here.

check out those good looking peeps

and this one might be my absolute FAV. It is like they are having their own little contest to see who can scrunch their nose the most. 😀 Anyone who knows Amber knows that when her nose is all scrunched up it means she is happy, I love that Madden is the same way.

he he he I could eat his little nose, so cute!

and one last set of the dashing little Mr. Madden. Oh I just love this kid!

Amber & Greg thanks for another year of radness! You guys are such troopers. I hope you love the peek. Much more in the whole gallery soon!
