Driftwood Beach Family Photos | Jekyll Island

So good to be back on Jekyll Island once again! This sunrises session was such a delight. Girl’s trip of three generations is so special and I am glad they decided to document the occasion with Driftwood Beach family photos. This was their first time on this beach and it did not disappoint. It is truly one of a kind!

These sisters have a great relationship with each other and with their mom and grandmother. It is truly a delight to witness and to capture through my camera. We started their session in what I would refer to as “the forest” and then we moved over for some fun in the surf.

When I saw this log, I knew we had to put it to use. Isn’t is just dreamy with the clouded sky, ocean, sand and the character of the aged wood?

Love that they were game to getting wet and sandy as I think it really added to their Driftwood Beach family photos. There is nothing like cooling off and playing in the ocean. So much fun. Portrait sessions do not need to be boring!

Sweetest way to start the day! Yes. Sunrise sessions are early, but soooo worth it. Coolest time of day, beaches are less populated and the light is soft and perfect. Another bonus is once your session is over, you can go enjoy the rest of your day.

I will be on Jekyll Island through June 28th.  If you are here and want last minute Driftwood Beach family photos, send me a message.  Would love hear from you! info@yvonneniemannphotography.com  |  706.713.0676

When trying to figure out when to do your newborn portrait session, there are a few things to consider. 

If you would like those super curled up images of your baby and images where your infant is super small, then I would recommend booking your newborn session during the first two weeks of life. This is also usually the time before colic and baby acne would arrive, if that ends up being a thing for your sweet baby.

Now, if you would like some wide eyed shots as well as those sleepy images then you may want to wait a bit. Some parents prefer to do their newborn portraits around six weeks. At this age, infants don't curl up quite as tight when they sleep, but their sleep details are still adorable. Most moms mention that they seem to be a bit into a routine at this point, which can help predict baby's mood, sleep and eating patterns. 

Regardless on your baby's age, I am here to document those precious moments. If you are still unsure when to book, don't hesitate to reach out. I am happy to talk through options with you.

Cannot believe that my daughter graduates high school in two months. Does not seem possible. I could not be prouder of this girl of mine. She is such a beautiful soul, smart, kind, thoughtful, hard working, dedicated and funny to boot. 

My goals for the first six months of the year look a bit different, but at the same time, really aren't. I always have goals that include my daughter, but there is certainly more emphasis on things this year with her. I want to go on a mother/daughter trip, a family trip, visit more colleges, plan her graduation party, do some more photo sessions that she has requested, design save the date and graduation announcements, gather pictures for a slideshow for her graduation party, start compiling dorm room items and be present as much as possible.

Still seems like yesterday I was just meeting her for the first time at the hospital and just like that....my baby girl will be moving on to start the next chapter of her life.

A benefit of photographing a baby when they are a bit older is that you can get these precious wide eyed images as well as more varied facial expressions. I mean….you cannot get over those beautiful eyes and those stunning eyelashes.

One fun thing that I get to do as a family photographer is spending time with babies in the early stages of their lives. Such an honor to document these special moments for families. This little lady was such a pleasure to photograph. Especially since I got to do a session with her big sister when she was the same age. Love that they used this precious family heirloom bassinet, which made things just that much more special. Cannot wait to cuddle with some more babies at session in the near future. My baby is about to graduate high school, so newborn sessions give me my baby fix while also flooding back memories of those infant days that I treasure so much.
