the energy of a photon is h times f
Energy is ALWAYS conserved. The appropriate sum of mass and energy is always conserved. If an atom emits a photon, the atom has less energy/mass, and the universe minus that atom has more energy/mass. It's like carrying some energy from here to there.
A low temp source emits low-frequency, long wavelength waves. A medium temp source emits medium frequency, medium wavelength waves. A high temp source emits high frequency, short wavelength waves.

In the case of linear optical transitions, an electron absorbs a photon from the incoming light and makes a transition to the next higher unoccupied allowed state. When this electron relaxes it emits a photon of frequency less than or equal to the frequency of the incident light (Figure 1.3a). SHG on the other hand is a two-photon process where this excited electron absorbs another photon of same frequency and makes a transition to reach another allowed state at higher energy. This electron when falling back to its original 39 state emits a photon of a frequency which is two times that of the incident light (Figure 1.3b). This results in the frequency doubling in the output.

line emission
An atom emits a photon (particle of light) when transitioning from a ground state to its excited state. To obey conservation of energy, the energy gained by the atom when an electron moves to a lower energy level is equal to the energy it loses in emitting the photon. (The energy of a photon is E = hf, where E is the energy, h is Planck's constant, and f is the frequency of the photon.) Conversely, when an atom absorbs a photon (as is the case in absorption spectra), the electron absorbing the photon moves to a higher energy level.
You may be confusing "proton" with "photon". A proton is a positively-charged particle contained within the nucleus of an atom. A photon is a discrete unit of energy normally expressed as light. Around the nucleus of the atom, there are some electrons in energy levels. When an atom absorbs energy, it absorbs a specific amount, or "quantum" of energy and the electron boosted to a higher energy level. When the electron drops to a lower energy level, it emits a photon in the form of light at a specific energy and frequency.
The energy of the photon is the same as the energy lost by the electron
