Athens GA Family Portrait Photoshoot

This family portrait photoshoot at the Botanical Gardens in Athens, GA was such a pleasure. I had first photographed this family when their daughter was born for her newborn portraits. Look at her now! So grown!!!! We did a Simplicity Session to keep with the children’s schedules and beat the heat. It worked out great.

Mom did a great job with the outfits for her family. Her flowered dress with smocking and ruffled detailing is a great choice for this location and in coordinating with the rest of her family members. Her husband’s white jeans, loafers and blue shirt is a classic choice. The kiddos are dressed in tradional outfits that will stand the test of time. Love how they all coordinate with each other without being matchy matchy. Great example of what to wear for a family portrait photoshoot.

So proud of my girl. She has committed to Georgia College and will be moving to Milledgeville to start her college career this August. She is a true leader and I know she will find ways to utilize her talents while growing her skill and knowledge at GCSU. 

Love you baby girl! Excited for what is to come.

I hold heirloom photography events each season, but also offer personalized heirloom sessions when you need a bit more time and variety in your images.

Differences in heirloom photography sessions:

Heirloom portrait events are short 15 minute time slots for an individual child. Siblings can be booked back to back to allow a sibling portrait. The background is a white backdrop.

The signature heirloom session lasts up to 90 minutes and can include multiple children and even family pets. You can choose to do the heirloom photography session at your home, outside or at the Yvonne Niemann Photography home studio. You can choose your backdrop as well as a few different sitting options. There are several different backdrops to choose from - white, gray, cream and hand painted muslins in various neutral shades. Sitting options include various stools, chairs, a bench and a settee. If you want other images that are not heirloom portraits, you can do that too during a signature heirloom photography session!

Simplicity heirloom sessions last 30 minutes and can be for an individual child who needs more time to warm up or would like to include a family pet or one other child. These sessions can be done at your home, outdoors or the Yvonne Niemann Photography home studio. You can also choose your backdrop as well as a sitting options.

If you are unsure of what type of heirloom photography session would fit your family/children best, don't hesitate to reach out. I am always happy to discuss options with you and to find the perfect fit for your needs.
This is my absolute favorite location for Spring portraits with blossoming cherry trees. Some years the blossoms are a vibrant pink and other years, they are almost white. Regardless, I just find it dreamy and it photographs beautifully in the morning and before sunset. I know these trees well at this point. I visit them early in the season to see if the branches have buds and know about how long until blossoms appear from the looks of those buds. Some of the trees flower super fast and go green, while others  hang on much longer. 

If you are wanting a session at this location, you still have a little bit a time. They will be blossoming for another week. Contact me today to schedule your session!

When trying to figure out when to do your newborn portrait session, there are a few things to consider. 

If you would like those super curled up images of your baby and images where your infant is super small, then I would recommend booking your newborn session during the first two weeks of life. This is also usually the time before colic and baby acne would arrive, if that ends up being a thing for your sweet baby.

Now, if you would like some wide eyed shots as well as those sleepy images then you may want to wait a bit. Some parents prefer to do their newborn portraits around six weeks. At this age, infants don't curl up quite as tight when they sleep, but their sleep details are still adorable. Most moms mention that they seem to be a bit into a routine at this point, which can help predict baby's mood, sleep and eating patterns. 

Regardless on your baby's age, I am here to document those precious moments. If you are still unsure when to book, don't hesitate to reach out. I am happy to talk through options with you.
