How to choose when to do your Autumn Family Pictures

Doing your Autumn family pictures early in the season is a great idea if you are wanted some muted greens instead of vibrant colors. It is always a good idea to think of where you will display your portraits in your home. If your vibe is light, airy and a lot of neutrals with some soft color pops here and there, then you want images that will look good in that environment. If you decorate with a lot of deep, rich colors, then the vibrant fall colors may be more your styling choice. This family’s home is light and airy with some color pops of blue. Mom chose their outfits based around their home decor, but also on what their youngest daughter wanted to wear. Since her flowy dress was blue and cream, that is what the rest of the family chose in their wardrobe, but with some variances to ensure variety and fit individual style/personalities. This is a great example of what to wear for your upcoming Autumn family pictures.

Choosing your session location

I had suggested this location for what this family was looking for. They showed me some images from past sessions when the kiddos were little tots. Mom wanted a location that had some heritage looking architecture as they did something similar in the past and they wanted to recreate one of the images. These old wooden heritage homes served that purpose perfectly. Bonus for the front steps to recreate their old family portrait. Plus, this location is only 10 minutes from their house.

There are so many location choices in the Athens, Oconee and surrounding areas. Between fields, lakes, manicured parks, quaint downtown scenes, parks with natural country vibes and shoals, you are covered.

Early Autumn family pictures in Watkinsville, GA

I love tree lined drives and this one in particular is one of my favorites. It is great Spring, Summer and Fall! Gives such variety of colors throughout the year. This is what early Fall looks like. In the Spring and Summer, the trees are fresh green. In the later Fall, the colors are super vibrant. Lighting is great here in the morning and evening, although evening is my favorite with the angles I can shoot in.

The white fencing adds a nice touch and element to Autumn family pictures too. Great way to finish off their session as we headed to the car. Dad got an updated headshot, mom and dad got a few more portraits together and the youngest daughter got some more images she wanted for herself. Love how their images turned out and how all the colors worked together.

I love nature and taking pictures of all that Mother Nature gifts us. Unfortunately, I haven't taken the time to photograph the beauty around me as often as I would like. So, I plan on doing more of that going forward. It is something that feeds my soul and gives me so much joy. Thankfully, I never stopped documenting the beauty around me, but I certainly would love to do it more. Stay tuned. More pretty pictures will be scattered through my feed in the future.

At extended family portrait sessions, we do a lot of break outs to get images of individual families and relationships that you want documented. This includes couples! For younger families, this is the perfect time to get your portraits taken with your spouse when others are around to entertain your littles. For those who don't have tiny children, this is a great time to relax and bask in the love with your significant other. A time to sneak away from the chaos for just a bit.

When it is hot out, head to the shoals to cool off for your portraits! That is exactly what we did for this mama's maternity photography session. 

This is a location that I scout out often to ensure it is safe before sessions. If the water is too high and flowing too fast it is a no go. Luckily, it was pure perfection last night. Enough dry areas and plenty of water flow to make it dream worthy and a safe place for mom and her family. 

A few tips for sessions at this location:
1. Spray on some bug spray. 
2. Bring shoes easy to take off for when you get to the water.
3. Have a towel handy for drying off your feet after the session.
4. If you are heading somewhere after your portraits, bring a change of clothes as you will most likely get a tad wet. 
5. I will make sure to pick areas that aren't too slippery, but go slow and shuffle your feet as you walk in the water.

If would like a session on the shoals, just let me know. We have a few places in the Oconee County and Athens areas to choose from. I will pick the location that is most perfect for your portraits.

Independence Day
4th of July 
Savannah historic district
One of the many pleasures that I get to do as a photographer is documenting childhood and relationships of all ages. 

Big milestones are such a privilege to photograph for families and especially ones where I know the artwork will be displayed for generations to come. 

I think that is one of the reasons why I adore heirloom sessions so much. They are classic pieces that will never go out of style. 

Looking at this image, it reminds me of a sibling image of my mom with her brother and sisters back in the 50s. Love that families continue the tradition of heirloom portraiture. 

My favorite way to display images like this is on a canvas and framed in an ornate frame on the wall alongside past generations portraits. 

You can book heirloom portrait sessions any time with Yvonne Niemann Photography, but if you want a shorter session, you may want to consider booking one of the heirloom portrait event spots. They are offered each season of the year. The Summer event takes place on July 14. There are still spots available, so if you would like to be added to the calendar, don't hesitate to contact me. Simply send me a message or book online using the link in the bio.

Ringing the UGA bell for one last time to celebrate graduating is a great feeling! Can you feel it?! I sure can. When thinking of locations for your graduation portraits, think of those places that meant a lot to you while you were in school. Could be on or off campus. Make a list and we will make sure to document you in those sentimental areas for you!
