3 Month Milestone Pictures In Studio

Every milestone in a baby’s first year of life is worth documenting! This little girl is part of the Watch Me Grow program. I photographed her mom for her maternity portraits and then I photographed their newborn session at their home in the Fall. Her three month milestone pictures was such a treat. Her mom chose to do the session in studio since that is what we did for the maternity images. We used the same backdrop and even used the stool we used for some of the maternity portraits. Love to bring everything together like that when possible.

The little lady wore a handmade dress for her 3 month milestone pictures. Very fitting for this southern lady. Mom chose the most perfect dress too. The blue and white is such a classic choice.  The delicate pattern and flowy material works wonderfully for motherhood and baby portraits. Very flattering too.

Big sisters and brother joined in on a few images at the end once lil’ sis had enough. Always a delight photographing the siblings during a milestone session.

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.

Botanical Gardens | St. Louis Family Photographers

It is an honor to be asked to come back to photograph families year after year – especially since there are so many St. Louis family photographers to choose from. I have been photographing this family since it was just mom and dad while they were expecting their first child. Boy have things changed!!!! Now they are a family of four, live in their dream home and are enjoying the adventures that come their way.

They chose Botanical Gardens in St. Louis as their location for their portraits this particular Fall as it is close to their home, but also a favorite place to visit. Another plus was the artwork displays that were on their last stretch while I was there.

Love the color palette mom chose for their family portraits. You cannot go wrong with green, blue and gray. Classic colors for any time of year, but especially Fall. Will look great on Christmas cards too.

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!
