a girl and her dog….

Our dog is like a child to me. My husband makes fun of me to no end about this, but I can’t help it. I love our dog!!!! We got Nina when Miss K was just two years old. They’ve always been the best of friends. Miss K is in charge of feeding her and keeping her water bowl full. She’s a digger and a bird chaser but we love her dearly.

9 months and big brother too!

These little munchkins were a kick! Miss B was quite the character making funny faces at me and her older brother Mr. L was so well behaved. They’re both such good kids. We got a lot of great shots of the two of them!

Thanks so much for a wonderful session. I hope you enjoy the preview!

so handsome!

totally makes me laugh

My FAVORITE

Her expression just kills me. It’s complete perfection!

You might remember this handsome young man from his newborn session here or from his six month session. I can’t believe he’s grown up so fast. His mama and I are great friends and we often take our boys to the park to play together. My littlest guy is just a few months older than “B.” I had so much fun doing his pictures!

Thanks Bri for being such a great friend and a great mama to this wonderful little guy. And thanks Mr. B for letting me steal your wife to hang out!

okay seriously can’t resist this little face. How cute is he?!!!

I’m in love with this golf shot. Total perfection!

Little Miss C

Miss C and I had a quick 15 minute session together yesterday. She’s independent and cute as cute can be. At one point she started getting sassy with me (which honestly I didn’t notice since I have a little girl of my own and it’s common). Anyhow, her mama said “you need to apologize to Miss Jenica.” To which Miss C said “Miss Jenica I apologize for being rude and I would like to ask for your forgiveness. Could you please forgive me?”

I almost melted into a puddle right there.

She was so genuine and sincere in her apology. Her mom and dad are teaching her well! I know quite a few adults who could learn this lesson (myself including). How often we don’t admit when we’re wrong and ask for forgiveness. She did it right away and without hesitation.

Sometimes I learn some great lessons from those that are small.

Edited to add: due to some weird color shift changes from firefox, I changed the pictures from the post. Sorry about the neon colors. I figured out my issue now. Enjoy the (smaller) photos.

Little “E” – Portland, OR kids photography

Jenica Lemmons — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 22:07:36 +0000

I got the chance to photograph Little “E” at the Portland State University campus in downtown Portland. I’ve been photographing little “E” since his mama was pregnant with him and I did her maternity pictures. He’s now a year and a half and cute as ever. His dad attends the college there at Portland State, so it was perfectly fitting to do the session in the common areas. “E” looked like a little college student. It was so cute watching him play and laugh!

Thanks M for letting me photograph one of my favorite little guys. I had a fun time hanging out with you and will definitely be coming to Portland more often!

Snakes and snails and puppy dog tails…

That’s what boys are made of….

Mr. J was a delight to photograph. I got the pleasure of photographing him last week. These are the sweetest moments and they pass all too quickly. It was just a year ago that my little guy was born. I’m not ready to have another, so I’m thankful that lately I’ve been getting to borrow sweet little babies so I can photograph them. They are just too precious. I think I’d have a dozen if it weren’t for the whole laundry thing…

I also did a few photos of Mr. J’s big sister while Mr. J was eating. She was dressed in her princess attire and I don’t think I’ve ever had the pleasure of photographing such a beautiful princess. She totally stole my heart.

Thanks B family for allowing me to photograph your beautiful kids. I hope you enjoy your preview!

the big sister Miss “A”

My serious boy…

Jenica Lemmons — Sat, 10 Jan 2009 02:16:55 +0000

My middle child is the most emotional of my three kids. He can be hot or cold depending on how he feels at any particular moment. He is as sweet as he is sour. One moment he wants his mama and will hug me like he hasn’t seen me in years and the next moment he’s putting cookies in the toaster or throwing things at his little brother. He’s cuddling on my lap as I type this and I’ve become very emotional lately about how quickly my kids are growing up. My tiny one will be turning a year old in two weeks and Mr. I will be three soon. I only have a few more years to have them home with me before they head off to school. I’ve often been accused of being a little crazy by taking so many photos of my kids, but it’s my only way of freezing time. My only way of remembering exactly what they looked like. I want to capture every face, every emotion that they experience.

Here’s my boy.

Little Mister “E” – 14 month old toddler session

Jenica Lemmons — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 18:02:15 +0000

This little guy melted my heart. He was ALL boy and a fun little guy at that. He automatically went towards the dirt as soon as we got to the park. It was so cute!! Here he was surrounded by all sorts of slides and swings and he just wanted to play in the dirt. His mom was totally relaxed and just let him do his thing. It was the perfect lifestyle session. I got a few smiles out of him, but for the most part he was a pretty focused, serious guy.

We met up at Horseshoe Lake park in Woodland, WA. I love this location. It’s perfect for all sorts of sessions. They have the water, the park area, a field, and plenty of trees. It’s also close to downtown so it’s easy to do “urban” sessions as well.

Hope you enjoy the preview…

Check out these gorgeous blue eyes!!!

this one completely cracks me up. Check out that face!!!!

and a very fitting storyboard…. (I LOVE this one)

Baby G is six months old already!!

Jenica Lemmons — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 22:15:32 +0000

I did this little guys newborn photos when he was just a tiny lil thing at six pounds. He was sooooo cute back then and it’s amazing how big and chubby he’s gotten. Oh I just love this little spitfire!!!

He’s quite a smiley little guy. He cooperated with us for quite awhile before he got tired of me making goofy noises to make him look at me and smile. Course when we tried to put clothes on him he protested.

There’s nothing cuter than a nakey little baby bum.

check out those beautiful blue eyes and those cheeks… awwwww….

I LOVE this look. Cracks me up every time I look at it….
