Farmington Family Photos Outside | Early Fall

Early fall is a great time for family photos outside if you want cooler weather, but don’t want vibrant colors. Greens are a bit more muted, but quite lovely. It is the time where a few leaves are beginning to turn, but the majority are still green. Perfect if your home decor does not lean towards rich colors.

Love the colors this family chose for the family photos. Green, blue, white and a pop of pastel pink work so nicely for autumn portraits and for this location. The pattern in grandma’s dress along with the checkered shirt of her son work so well together. The girls’ outfits in solid colors bring it all together without the patterns being too much. Great example of how different patterns can work together.

Lots of personality in this six month old baby girl! Love her smiles and how she likes her cuddles with family members. She isn’t able to sit up on her own quite yet, but her tummy time is very strong and all her facial reactions are just precious. Love this milestone in babies!!!!

Heirloom Portraits In Oconee County, GA

I just adore heirloom portraits! This little man’s sister came to me when she was around one for her first heirloom portraits and now it is his time for the tradition. He wore the most adorable outfit with classic details in baby blue. Mom was worried that it was a bit too small since he had grown from the time she purchased the outfit at The Elephant Trunk here in Athens. Luckily, it fit and we got some adorable heirloom portraits of this young Southern man.

When doing heirloom portraits with Yvonne Niemann Photography, you will get a variety of images. Not only will you get the classic bust shots, but you will also get full body and some detail images as well. Depending on age, we can also get standing, sitting, or crawling images. Think of it as a milestone and heirloom portrait session!

Mom brought a rocking chair that is a family heirloom as well as rattle. Love it when parents use sentimental items for their children’s portraits. Really adds that much more to the finished artwork.

Silhouettes are also something that you will receive when doing heirloom portrait with me. For little girls with longer hair, at the end of the session, we will put hair into a ponytail. For those with shorter hair, we just let the hair be and show off its character. Love this little man’s curls. ADORABLE!!!!!

If you are wanting heirloom photos of your child, contact Yvonne Niemann Photography for details and to set up your appointment. I offer quarterly heirloom portrait events for those who want a shorter session. You can also book a private session to allow more time, images, customization and variety in your finished artwork. Inquire for information. Would love to discuss options with you. info@yvonneniemannphotography.com  |  706.713.0676

8 Month Milestone Photography | Athens, GA

I love milestone photography sessions to document those big moments in a baby’s first year of life. I always suggest doing these sessions during the actual milestone instead of a specific month. All babies develop at different rates and I prefer to go at their pace instead of stressing parents about their baby hitting a milestone at a certain timeframe. This baby’s sitting milestone session was when she was eight months old. It worked out great too as she could sit up really well on her own at this point. She was already starting to get some separation anxiety, so it was helpful to get some images with her siblings and mom. We also gave her breaks when needed to get images of her brothers and sisters by themselves too.

Love that all the girls wore matching dresses and how big brother coordinated with the gals. Really makes a big difference in the group images, but also when mom displays the images on the wall. Mom chose to use the same backdrop we used for her maternity, newborn and three month sessions.

If you have a baby or are expecting, consider milestone sessions of your little one during their first year of life. Maternity, newborn, tummy time, sitting, crawling, standing and one year are all great options for milestone photography sessions. Both signature and simplicity sessions are available.

Love this area of the historic district of Jekyll Island. Pretty walkways, roads, buildings, trees and scenery. It is like taking a step back in time in many ways. I have been photographing my daughter in this exact location for the last few summers and it never disappoints.

There is something about the ocean in black and white that feels both quiet and dramatic.

In this image from Jekyll Island, the clouds along the horizon almost become their own landscape, while the waves rolling onto shore add movement, texture and depth. A simple beach scene, but one that feels timeless.

What a beautiful way to spend part of summer break - studying, writing papers and taking quizzes while tucked away on Jekyll Island. Not a bad “classroom” at all.

She is heading into her sophomore year at GCSU, and this portrait felt like the perfect way to mark the season - relaxed, confident and surrounded by the timeless beauty of Jekyll Island’s historic district, with live oaks and Spanish moss framing the moment.

Had the best time photographing this beautiful girl on Jekyll Island this past week. 

Her mom dreamed of soft clouds, magical color, gentle ocean waves and a calm evening without too much wind - and Jekyll delivered.

It was the sweetest way to begin the week and such a special reminder that preteen portraits deserve to feel just as meaningful, beautiful and timeless.
