Now Booking – Oconee County Purple Flower Field Sessions

July 30, 2019

Soooo excited that the purple flower field in Oconee County is back in bloom! I look forward to this all year! This field is one of my favorites, especially when in bloom with these beautiful purple gems. Perfect setting for portraits!

Summer family portraits taken near Athens, GA in a purple flower field.

Light-infused portraits surrounded by flowers just in time for back to school portraits, documenting an important milestone or updating your family photos. Great opportunity to get ahead of the crazy schedules and to-do lists before the holiday season is upon us. Can you imagine having your Christmas cards and some of your gifts done and checked off your list?!

These beautiful and timeless images are great for creating photographic heirlooms that can be passed down for generations to come. Check out product offerings by clicking here.

Cannot believe Summer is winding down. This is busy time for a lot of parents as we shop for school supplies, back to school clothes and try to cram in every bit of fun before school starts. Hope you are taking in every moment and enjoying the time with your family and loved ones!

I love pretty light. There are specific things I look for when choosing a location and deciding where to put my subjects to get the outcome I desire.

If you have done a session with me, you may notice me looking at the sky a lot and seeing what is behind me. I am looking for an open sky or a clean reflecting area. This ensures that the light falls nicely on you and makes your eyes sparkle. If there is something dark in front of you or something that will make a color cast like a brick building, then that is a no go for me.

I also prefer back lighting or slightly side lighting. This means no squinting, no dappled light and a pretty glow that makes you stand out from the background.

Even when under shade, I am looking to see where the sun is. You will notice me not only looking behind me, but also above when deciding where to place you under something like a tree. I like to place my subjects just at the edge of a shaded area.

This family`s portraits are a good example of what I am looking for in terms of light. We did their session about 90 minutes before sunset. The sun was still a bit too bright for the open field, so we started under the tree. The sun is behind them and slightly to camera left. We the moved to the open area and allowed the sun to backlight my subjects. Sun was coming through the trees behind the girl, which made the background glow magically while also giving more dimension.

I absolutely love looking at light and how it affects landscape, people and animals. When it hits just right, it is as if the angels are singing. My daughter even comments on some of our drives and walks on the lighting. She knows me so well!

So, do tell, what is your favorite lighting? Is it something you notice?

My baby girl is heading off to college in three weeks. We were looking at her calendar and the things she wants to do before she moves and it hit us how we are running out of time. We have accomplished so much this summer, but still have a lot to do.

Most items have been bought, but there are all the little things that we still need to get. Then there is the question on whether we just buy those things once we are there or haul it all at the same time.

My husband is making some items in the woodshop for her dorm as well - hutch for her desk and a table top that will go across her roommate and her tall dressers to give them extra storage above their fridge and microwave. I know she has a few more items to get in terms of decorations, but luckily most of that is already here!

Oh, and you cannot forget paying tuition and fees in the next two weeks.

She is also trying to schedule some fun outings with her friends - Six Flags and floating in Helen. Plus needing to hang out with friends and some dear former teachers as well.

Then there are all the doctor appointments and a hair appointment that are all scheduled in the next couple of weeks.

Such an exciting time and it will be great to see it all come together and how her next chapter unfolds. I think there are some great things in her future!

Do you have a child leaving for college soon? How are you feeling about things? What last minute items are still on your to do list?

School starts up in a three weeks here in Oconee County. That also means it is time for senior portraits!

The beginning of the school year is always a popular time for senior phot sessions for those who want images for social media from the start. Allows you to have photos for all of those senior Sunday posts that are so popular.

For those who aren`t as concerned about having professional images for social media at the very beginning of their senior year, there are other things to consider.
- Your favorite time of year. If you like Fall with cooler temps, vibrant colors of nature, and all the fashion that comes with the season, consider a session in October or November.
- Do you have a favorite destination? Consider a session there!
- Do you like layers, wheat colored fields and perhaps a few Christmas decorations? December will be your friend.
- Love Spring blooms and the fashion of that season? Things start blooming in February and go throughout the Spring before school ends.
- Want images when you have your cap and gown and know where you are going to college? End of April and beginning of May will be your best bet.
- Have a particular location mind, but not sure when it looks the best? Let me know as I may have the answer for you!

Hope this helps you decide when to do your senior portraits. Of course, if you need help, feel free to reach out and I can discuss options and details with you.

Also, you may also want to consider having your best friends join in on your session and perhaps some updated family portraits as well. I know us parents sure do love family photos before our children move away! ;)

Congrats to all the rising seniors! Take it all in and enjoy all the festivities. This is your time.

A lot of new moms (or moms to be) wonder when the best time is to hold their newborn portrait session. I highly recommend booking your session when you are in your second or beginning of third trimester to ensure you get the date/timeframe you want.

If you want those super curled up fresh newborn images, I would suggest doing your portrait session within the first two weeks of life. This is also when babies are usually their sleepiest as well.

If you want some wide eyed images and a bit more filled out baby portraits, you may want to wait until your baby is around a month old. We will still be able to get those sweet sleeping images as well.

Newborn sessions can take place outdoors, in studio or in your home. Send me a message if you have any questions or need help deciding what would be the best fit for your family. Always happy to help where I can.

Love the color palette mom chose for her family’s portraits. Cannot go wrong with red, white and blue. Notice how family members use the pop of red - brother’s shorts, baby sister’s bow, mom and big sister’s shoes and mom’s earrings. All came together beautifully!!!!!
