Family and Children Photography in Athens, GA at Botanical Gardens

Loved this family and children photography session that took place at State Botanical Gardens of Georgia. The weather was perfection and there were lots of pretty backdrops for us to utilize and change up the scenery for when the boys needed something different. Gotta keep moving with the short attention spans of little ones!

We started with family portraits and then moved on to get images of just the boys. Gotta love those personalities coming through in these portraits. Oh, and check out those yummy details in the boys’ outfits. Picture perfect.

For portraits of mom with her sons, I thought it would be fitting to give them the scenery of flowers. Look how nicely it all coordinates, but also gives the youngest one something to do and a place to explore too.

We ended the family and children photography session with some more sibling images. Aren’t they just the sweetest?!

Mom did a fabulous job dressing her sons for their portraits as usual. Love the dusty blue and a white color palette. The velvet and crisp cotton is a classic, while also lending a lot of interest with the fine details. The pleating, and scalloped edging is to die for!!!! Even the shoe choices are perfection. Such timeless outfits that are very fitting for family and children photography. Mom’s blue patterned dress and dad’s blazer look wonderful with their sons’ outfits. Notice how even mom and dad have the same color shoes?! Great way to bring everything together. Love how everything coordinates and complements each other, but is not matchy matchy. Everyone gets to show off their personality and style. Great example of what to wear for your family and children portraits. When thinking of wardrobe selection, consider where your finished artwork will be displayed and the setting of where your portrait session will take place. It is so much more pleasant to the eye when everything coordinates from start to finish.

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.
