A few years back I had the opportunity to work with one of the sweet and beautiful Rust family, I just loved our session and resulting images. Well to my delight the lovely Jen emailed me this spring to set up another family session. I have to admit I was excited to see how her...

Last fall & Winter I participated in the “Giving is Awesome” program again. I love this program, it gives me a chance to give back, and meet new people I would have never normally met. Well it was hard to choose, but the winnings went to a fantastic mother & daughter by the names of...

This past weekend I had the pleasure of spending some time with the lovely Britell family. We had a great time tromping around the George Fox Campus, warding off the rain and getting to know each other. If anything became clear to me over our time together it is that there is no shortage of...

Absolutely love the pictures! Truly captures the love of this family!
- Kelleigh @ Kelleigh Ratzlaff DesignsMay 26, 2010 - 5:46 pm
I love these pictures!! My favorite is the one on the stump on the left. Although, I’d probably get the one on the right because of the goofy look on Abby’s face! I love getting personality shots of my kids!
- Lee Anne KrauseMay 26, 2010 - 5:53 pm
What a great looking family. How nice!
- Doug GreeneMay 26, 2010 - 6:26 pm
Great Work Emily! Great Family too!
- HaleyMay 26, 2010 - 6:32 pm
Love these pictures… lovely/beautiful family Leslie – great job Em!
- JenniferMay 26, 2010 - 8:01 pm
Oh how I LOVE LOVE LOVE these pictures! Emily once again you have amazed me at how you capture their individual personality!!! I must admit they made me tear up! I love the emotion you captured on my sister’s face as she looks at her children! Amazing pics of Mike and Abby too, and love the “free spirit” pics of Abby, and the “hunky”high schooler pics of Nick!
I couldnt be more excited for Les and Mike! These TWO DESERVE it more than anyone I know!
I have to say, this have got to be the BEST gift I have ever had the blessing of giving anyone! thank you EMILY!!! - JenniferMay 26, 2010 - 8:05 pm
and I must say, I do ADORE the one Abs took at the end of Mike and Les, because those are such natural expressions for them! 🙂
- DebbieMay 26, 2010 - 9:24 pm
Wow, you caught their spirit and beauty! Congratulations.
- TerraSueMay 26, 2010 - 10:54 pm
I love the family pics. And my fave of Nick and Abby at the top! Love it! BTW- I see the resemblance Michael.
- NikkiMay 27, 2010 - 4:53 am
Nick is growing into such a good looking gentleman. Abby has her long hair back and looks so beautiful. You look great Leslie, running is doing you good. And Michael, what can I say… you have a great family!
- Christina GarrettMay 27, 2010 - 5:44 am
These photographs are incredible! Black and white photographs are my favorite, as they seem to bring out intricate details that would otherwise go unnoticed. I have three …
1. Nick and Abby on the bench – the love they have for each other just jumps out of the photo. (Love that the ‘extra’ prop is decidedly absent).
2. Leslie and Nick gazing into one each others eyes. The love between a mother and her son is priceless this exudes from the photograph.
3. Michael and Abby (photograph 1). Abby is just melting into her Daddy. Little girls need to adore their Daddy, and she clearly does.
Michael and Leslie, your family ROCK’S it out!!!!
- JoleneMay 27, 2010 - 7:51 am
Such beautiful pictures! What a handsome bunch! I love the twirling ones of Abby! Can’t wait to see the rest!
- LisaMay 27, 2010 - 7:58 am
Wow! I knew you were a beautiful family but it was really captured in these shots!!
Love you guys 🙂 - IreneMay 27, 2010 - 9:58 am
Great pics, Nick and Abby are growing up so fast.
- AnnieMay 27, 2010 - 11:59 am
Is it normal to cry when looking at someone else’s family pictures?
Your family melts my heart. I could never pick a favorite and would have to buy them all. I love seeing Abby dance and free and happy. I love them all. Thanks so much for sharing them with us! - KimMay 27, 2010 - 12:20 pm
Lovely, lovely, lovely!

Lovely family!
- Dee BrittellMay 28, 2010 - 4:07 pm
What awesome photography! Emily, not only your photography, but your great commentary show a rare talent for capturing the best and most beautiful attributes in people. The bonds of love between them all are so evident. Brother and sister, parent and child, husband and wife. What a classic shot of Nick and Leslie…I’ve seen it countless times…., and Abby really had to be in motion to be the real Abby.
- ChrisMay 29, 2010 - 7:09 pm
I think Abby has a career ahead of her!! Nice pictures!
- MarcyMay 30, 2010 - 12:40 pm

Oh I love these photos! They are SOOO adorable!! Emily you are so talented! Please teach me! 🙂 hehe
Growing up a country girl you get to know the kids on your bus rout. It might just be the only way you get to know kids in your area. And yes I say area, not neighborhood. When the houses are all 5 acres plus away from each other it is an area. 🙂 One...

The photos are amazing, I can’t wait to get them up in the house…these are our first professionally done photos as a family, and Riley’s first ones. You are so good at your job, we can’t wait to have you do our next session. 🙂
I think my favorite is of the two of them blowing the dandelion wishies together. SO sweet.
Thanks again super amazing Miss Emily G…

- Linda & Tom BerkemeierMay 18, 2010 - 1:23 pm
Love you already, baby Ella! What a cutie! Our expectations that a newborn photo sitting with Emily would be a good “welcome baby” gift for Melissa & John were certainly fulfilled. Thanks to our daughter Sarah for suggesting that we do this with her. We do try to recommend Emily’s skills every chance we get.
- dwayneMay 20, 2010 - 9:20 pm
Melissa and her sisters were very beautiful babies.Ella’s beauty is no suprise. Great pictures.
- Dawne Cheyne (aunt)May 21, 2010 - 5:14 pm
The pictures of our beautiful Ella are perfect! But with such a “perfect” model I feel sure it was not the hardest work you have ever had to do ( I hope)! I was extremely impressed with each and every photo! Nice job!!!!
