Professional Headshots In Athens, GA

I have been photographing this sweet lady with her family for a few years, so when she asked me to photograph her updated headshots, I was so honored. We did her professional headshots in Athen, GA to match the company’s other headshots. The greenery, iron fence and pillars gave us a nice variety for her final images. Always looking for places where the lighting is great, there aren’t a ton of people and we can get a lot of images in a short amount of time. This particular street downtown always does the trick!

If you are needing updated professional headshots in Athens, GA or surrounding area, contact me for details, options and to set up your appointment. Various session types are available to fit your needs. info@yvonneniemannphotography.com  |  706.713.0676

When Should I Schedule An Heirloom Photography Session?

Heirloom portraits are such a staple for many families – especially here in the South. These sessions are rather simple in style. Usually a white or a hand painted canvas backdrop. Attire is traditional timepieces – usually with smocking, lace, Peter Pan collars, all in white, cream or pastel colors. Silver rattles and favorite stuffed animals sometimes make their appearance as well. Full body and tight shots where the focus is on the face are both featured.

BEST AGES FOR HEIRLOOM PHOTOGRAPHY SESSION

Heirloom photography is a classic way to document your child between the ages of 1-10. Many families choose a specific age depending on when they had their own portraits done as a child or when they feel is most fitting to start the tradition themselves. The most popular age I see clients for their heirloom photography session is between three and four years old. This is the age range where the child can take some direction and is attentive. They still have those precious filled out faces and adorable child features that just don’t last. I have quite a few parents bring their one year old in for this timeless portraits as well.

BOOK A PRIVATE SESSION OR A SPOT AT AN HEIRLOOM PHOTOGRAPHY EVENT

I offer heirloom photography events four times a year – one for each season. These are done on a specific day and are scheduled back to back for 15 minutes each. When siblings are scheduled one after another, I include a sibling portrait as well! The backdrop is a simple white seamless paper and we do some images with a chair, stool or bench as well as without.

If you think your child needs more time or if you want more customization, I suggest booking your own heirloom session. This allows you more time, choices in backdrops (handprinted canvases or seamless papers), outfit changes, more variety with furniture, etc… You will also get to choose if you do the session in the Yvonne Niemann Photography home studio, at your home or other location. Some families even choose a pretty manicured garden for their child’s heirloom portraits. Of course, multiple children can be included when you book your private heirloom photography session, which is great for larger families.

Silhouettes are available when you do an heirloom session. You can choose from the classic black or a watercolor in gray, blue or pink. If it is something you are wanting, bring a hair tie to put your little girl’s hair in a ponytail if she has longer hair. Boys and girls with short hair, don’t need anything extra.

Countdown To Graduation | Senior Photographer Athens, GA

As a senior photographer in Athen, GA area, I adore capturing soon to be graduates in their dream locations. This young lady did a senior session with me at 30A on the beach during Spring Break and then did a shorter session with me once she got her cap and gown. Great way to show off her graduation dress too!

She chose a field for her backdrop and I found the perfect one for her. She is moving to Nashville for college and she wanted something with a country setting and something that spoke to where she was heading.

At the end of her session, we did some cap and gown images where she didn’t have to worry about her makeup or hair getting messed up by the cap. Great test run on her attire for the upcoming big day!

Her Altar’d State dress is the perfect graduation dress and something that she will wear in the future too. The boots and her accessories will get much use now and later as well.

Nothing like a sleeping baby! Sometimes when a little one is having problems falling (or staying asleep) a swaddle can be a wonderful tool. Gives little ones comfort and a reminder of being in the womb. It is why I do a lot of swaddled images during a newborn session. Plus it is just precious!

A common question I get regarding heirloom sessions is what is the best age for these type of portraits. 

Heirloom photography is a classic way to document your child between the ages of 1-10. Many families choose a specific age depending on when they had their own portraits done as a child or when they feel is most fitting to start the tradition themselves. 

The most popular age I see clients for their heirloom photography session is between three and four years old. This is the age range where the child can take some direction and is attentive. They still have those precious filled out faces and adorable child features that just don’t last. I have quite a few parents bring their one year old in for this timeless portraits as well.

Many families choose to do a few sessions at various ages to show the growth of their child and put together a composite photographic wall art piece.

Still cannot decide when the best age would be for your child/children? Send me a message and I am more than happy to help you out!

This is the perfect time for pregnancy photos if you are in your third trimester! It isn't too hot or humid yet and boy is it pretty out there. Whether you are looking for a manicured garden, a flowering field, a wooded area, a place with water, or something with some architecture, you cannot go wrong! Fresh greens and flowering plants are everywhere.

We sure have some pretty buildings around here. This is a noticeable landmark in Madison, GA on the square. Love walking around this historic town - exploring the shops, dining in their restaurants and enjoying some French pastries. Lots of local gems.
