Oconee County High School Senior Portraits In Charleston

Today is my daughter’s last home game of her high school career. It is bittersweet for sure. I remember when she decided to try out and the excitement of making both sideline and courtside squads. To see it coming to a close is very surreal. Don’t blink. It really goes by so fast. Very excited for her as she gets closer to starting her next chapter in this crazy journey of life.

This past Fall, we headed to Charleston to check out the College of Charleston and for my daughter’s senior portraits. Such an honor that she asked me to be her photographer for this big milestone!

Our hotel was close to all the locations she wanted for her senior portraits. We started with some images of her in her cheer uniform before she did an outfit and hair change.

We then headed to Rainbow Row for those beautiful colors that speak to my senior gal! In fact, she has some watercolor paintings of this street on her bedroom wall.

Our last location was The Battery. Perfect place for her green dress. Love that she chose Charleston for her senior portraits. The outfits she chose were very fitting. She tends to wear a lot of athletic wear, but when she dresses up, she opts for classy pieces that are flattering and stand the test of time.

Introducing Fern | Netherland Dwarf Bunny

Santa came a little early this year with a very special delivery. Below is Fern, my daughter’s Netherland Dwarf bunny. She had her eye on this four month old boy and convinced us and Santa that he could come home and be a part of the Niemann household. Isn’t he just the cutest?

My daughter named her new bunny, Fern. She wanted to stick with a flower or plant name to go along with her name and her other furry housemates. We now have a Lily, Rose, Flower and Fern in our home. I personally love that Lily wanted to go with the flower/plant theme and I adore the name she picked. I actually think he looks a bit like Bambi with his coloring and markings. He is still a bit timid, but is warming up to us as he gets used to his new surroundings. We are currently keeping our other bunny, Flower, away from the new comer until they are both fixed. They both got a new two story home and currently Flower is taking up residence upstairs and Fern is living on the bottom level. They bond through the cage and from smelling each other through the floors. Cannot wait for the two to be together full time in the near future.

Is Santa bringing a new pet to your home this year? If so, don’t forget to book your pet photography session in the new year. You can always include your whole family in the portraits if you are also needing updated family photos. I personally never got around to doing my own family’s portraits and have decided to enjoy the season and do New Year’s cards this year. Who doesn’t like receiving special mail in the New Year?!

Athens, GA Pet Photography | Baby Holland Lop Bunny

Santa brought my daughter a baby Holland Lop bunny for Christmas this year. We are SO in love with her!!!! She is the sweetest, cuddle muffin of a bunny that my daughter named Flower. I did a quick petite session of my two girls when Flower was eight weeks old to show off her baby features and the love these two have for each other. She will never be this small again and I really wanted to document this time to have as a keepsake. My daughter chose three images that I printed large to frame in her room. Sweetest artwork for her bedroom of her cherished baby girl!

The first image you see here is my daughter’s favorite. For reference, that is cilantro she is eating. Isn’t she just the sweetest little thing?!

Fall isn't quite ready to say goodbye just yet! 🍁🍂

I'm still finding little pockets of gorgeous color around Athens, and you better believe I'm putting them to good use for portraits!

Sometimes all you need is one colorful little spot to work some fall magic.

I just love the beauty of November in Georgia! 🍂 The fall colors are still putting on quite a show, and I find myself soaking up every bit of it. The golden light, colorful leaves and crisp air make such a beautiful backdrop for family portraits. I'm certainly enjoying these last little gifts of fall before the season fades away!

Oh, how I love this beautiful light! 

One of the things I pay close attention to when planning portrait sessions is the time of day. I love how the soft, golden light filters through the trees, adding such beautiful warmth and a dreamy quality to portraits.

The right location is important, but the right light can make all the difference! It's little details like this that I love planning for my clients.

A little milestone with a whole lot of magic! 

During her first birthday portrait session, this sweet girl stood all on her own for the very first time! What an incredible moment to witness and capture.

It was also the final session in her Baby's First Year Collection, making this milestone even more meaningful. From those tiny newborn days to standing on her own. What a joy it has been to document her first year of life!

What a joy it is to photograph families through the years! I've been photographing this sweet family since their children were just little tots, and it's such an honor to document all the milestones and seasons of life along the way.

We met in a beautiful field on their property in Weldon Spring during my recent St. Louis visit. Their four-legged family members joined in the fun, too! A little patience paid off, and we even managed to get both pups looking at the camera at the same time. Such good dogs!

Feeling so grateful for families who continue to trust me with their memories year after year. 🤍
