Athens GA Lifestyle Family Photographer | Tickle Fight!

Photo of a tickle fight on family bed taken by Athens, GA lifestyle family photographer, Yvonne Niemann Photography.

I had so much fun photographing this lifestyle family photo session yesterday at their home in Oconee County. They are such a sweet family and their love for each other is obvious as you can see in their sneak peek image above. They chose to have their portraits taken at their beautiful home as it is where they spend a lot of time. So many options inside and outdoors for the family to explore and enjoy their time together. There really is no place like home! We started their lifestyle family photography session in the parents’ bedroom. The bed was made by a relative and it is a great place to cuddle and spend quality time together as a family. This picture makes me smile every time I look at it. They all look so happy and it’s as if you can hear the laughter coming through the image. This is truly how these four are together. After a few images in the bedroom, we headed outside for the rest of their session. We got some amazing images of them canoeing, playing in the woods and in their long meandering driveway and in a field of purple flowers. Some of their beloved chicken and their dog debuted for a few portraits as well. So fun! Cannot wait to share more from this family’s session. Such beautiful and loving images of these four that gives a glimpse into their lives at this moment of time.

I have to take a moment and mention how perfect their wardrobe selection is for this type of portrait. Mom did such a great job coordinating everyone. I had met them at their home a couple of weeks prior to their session and I went through their closets and helped pick out a few things. I wanted to make sure that they coordinated well with their surroundings and stayed true to who they are as individuals. Dad wears jeans and cowboy boots daily and their little boy likes to be just like daddy, so we made sure that they could wear those essentials. After looking at mom’s closet, we had selected a dress that she had just purchased from Free People for some of the outdoor portraits, which she could wear with her favorite boots. From there, we decided on cream, blue and gray for their color palette. Mom said she likes to wear tank tops and I thought that would be perfect for the bed shots and the canoe images. She actually had some other things selected for the other family members for those images too, but they were so happy with the outfits she had picked for them for the rest of the shoot, so they decided to stick with those items and then mom changed later into her dress. It all worked out so perfectly. I love it when everyone coordinates, but is comfortable and happy with what they have on. It really shows in the finished artwork. Perfect example of what to wear for family lifestyle portraits.

Spent some time in Savannah while on Spring break. Such a great way to relax and decompress with family and one of Lily's friends. Had to stop at one of my favorite stores - The Paris Market. What is your favorite shop in Savannah?

It's probably not a big surprise, but I love photographing pretty things in nature during my free time. It brings me so much happiness!!!! Of course, there are times when I leave my camera at home, but most of the time it is with me where I can photograph things that catch my eye. Sometimes it is the way light filters through some trees, architectural elements kissed by the elements, delicate flowers, or vast landscapes. My favorite thing though are all the little details. I tend to isolate elements more than not. It is what I gravitate towards. 

If you like taking pictures, what are your favorite things to capture? Please share!!!!

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.
