It is such an honor to be voted as Best of Georgia Regional Winner in the Family Photographers category through the Georgia Business Journal for the second year in a row!

It really means so much that you have chosen me as your photographer and trust me with your precious memories. Happy New Year!!!!
Fall portrait photography sessions are nearing an end, but there are still more in store. Such a great time of year for those who love the vibrant colors this season brings. I traveled to St. Louis for commissioned work and had the opportunity to photograph this family once again. I have been documenting them since their girls were infants. Just look at them now!!!! Beautiful young ladies.
This family was hoping for Fall portrait photography in a place of nature with lots of color and Autumn vibes. Found it!!!!! We did their session in the late morning. It was an overcast day, which actually worked out perfectly. Nice diffused light and allowed us to utilize this open field without worrying about harsh light or keeping us contained to a smaller area.
Love the color palette mom chose for her family’s wardrobe. The mustard yellow, sage green, cream and blue was prefect for this location and the colors in their natural surroundings. Great example of what to wear for Fall portrait photography.
Finishing up Fall portrait photography sessions in the next couple of weeks and then we will be heading into Winter portraits. Lots of beauty in this season and the next! Inquire for options and to be added to the calendar. Both Simplicity and Signature sessions are available. Looking forward to seeing your family soon. info@yvonneniemannphotography.com | 706.713.0676
The most common question I get every year is….
This family’s portraits taken on their property in the mountains is a great example of what to wear for your own photography session this year. Below I explain why this wardrobe selection works and how you can get your outfits to work for you!
A good place to start in choosing colors for your outfits is to choose a color palette that has colors that compliment one another, rather than too many of the same or similar colors. It’s also important to make sure colors don’t clash. Sage green, cream, rust, tan, brown and blue all work well together as shown in this family’s portraits. Notice how the youngest family members rust colored velvet bow, cream sweater and brown boots bring in colors from everyone else’s outfits. Great example of how to coordinate in a subtle way.
I highly recommend choosing outfits that follow a more neutral color palette. Especially when your session is at location in nature, it’s great to have Earthy colors that compliment, yet pop against the backdrop. Neutral colors are also a great way to make sure your images are timeless and beautiful.
This tip is especially crucial when choosing outfits, as busy patterns and big logos can be extremely distracting and if there are too many outfits with patterns in your group, can clash. Incorporate mostly solids in your outfits, and include patterns only when the majority outfits are solids, and when patterns are not as distracting. All family members here are wearing solids, except for the youngest sibling whose dress has delicate leaf detailing that is perfectly subtle and pulls everything together.
Women’s clothing comes in a multitude of designs, colors, and styles, and most times, women are more particular with their clothing than men, so having this as a foundation for the other outfits makes it easier to choose a color palette and style for your outfits. Start with one outfit, and build on it one-by-one. I suggest starting with the hardest person to please and have everyone coordinate to that outfit.
The most important factor in choosing your outfits is to wear something that you feel comfortable and confident in. You’ll want to choose something that fits you well and makes you feel good about yourself!

What are you most looking forward this holiday season?
I am looking forward to quality time with family. This weekend, we are going ice skating and one of the German Christmas Markets. Lots of other things in the works leading up to the big day. Parties, cookie making, gift exchanges, special meals, Christmas movie watching, etc…

There’s just something magical about timeless wardrobe pieces for Christmas photos.
Classic plaids, soft pastels, and simple silhouettes let the love and connection shine — and they’ll look just as beautiful years from now as they do today.
I always encourage families to choose outfits that feel classic, cozy, and true to them. It makes your holiday portraits feel effortless, elegant, and forever cherished.
Capturing sweet families like this is truly the best gift of the season.

Signs of Christmas. I love photographing beauty around me. I noticed how the light was hitting the berries and how the sun was coming through the greenery and knew it was something to capture. Isn`t it just so pretty?!

I know this time of year can feel full—holiday celebrations, school events, a to-do list that keeps growing, and all the end-of-year tasks calling your name. It’s a lot.
But in the middle of the busy, I hope you pause and soak in the moments that really matter. The giggles, the messy cookie decorating, the quiet snuggles, the imperfect but beautiful memories being made right in front of you.
Let go of the pressure to make everything perfect. Perfection isn’t what your family will remember—you are. You are enough exactly as you are, and the people who love you already see you as the magic of the season.
Here’s to slowing down, breathing deep, and holding onto the joy around you.

It is certainly a magical time of year, but even more when you are expecting your little one to arrive. A Christmas tree farm was the perfect setting for this maternity portrait session!

Christmas is just around the corner. This little girl is on trend with the Ralph Lauren Christmas theme that is so popular this year.
What decorating style do you gravitate towards? I am certainly traditional with my home decor for Christmas. White, cream, red and green.
