Home is Where the Heart Is

“Home is the nicest word there is.” ~ LAURA INGALLS WILDER

six month old baby boy sitting on bed all in white taken by Yvonne Niemann Photography in Athens, GA.

I am part of a photography circle where we are given monthly assignments. For February, we are to share an image titled “Home is Where the Heart is.” So, I chose the image above of this adorable six month old on his family’s bed at his home in Athens, GA. I love photographing babies where they are most comfortable. This lil’ man is clearly quite happy and content in his house around all the things that give him much joy and comfort. This is where he is surrounded by love and warmth that I’m sure fills his heart and soul. It’s not so much the building in itself that gives us these fond feelings, but rather the people, experiences, memories and rituals within the dwelling that matter. Home truly is where the heart is. It’s quite comforting to know that you will always have a home in yourself and with those you surround yourself with throughout life, regardless where you are.

Check out Tampa Newborn Photographer, Ashley Yvonne Photography, for her take on this month’s theme.

This is my sweet baby girl. She is obviously not a baby anymore, but rather a beautiful young lady, but she will ALWAYS be MY baby. I am sure all parents can relate.

Lily is why I do what I do. Before I got pregnant, I was a video producer with some crazy hours. When I found out I was expecting, my husband and I looked into childcare options, but weren`t having much luck finding what we needed. My heart was telling me to be with my daughter. I didn`t want to miss out on anything. My plan was to freelance, but the hours honestly weren`t much different, so I decided to stay home with my baby girl.

I had always done photography on the side. Early on, I did photo journalism, but then switched over to doing it as a hobby once I started my career in video. I worked for a photographer for a short time in college who had her studio in her home and always thought that would be perfect for when I had my own family. So, that is exactly what I set my mind to once I made the decision to quit the video world. As a mom, it would allow me to set my own goals, hours and run things the way I wanted.

Owning my own business has been such a blessing! I get to be there for my daughter and family while feeding into my passion for photography. It gives me such freedom and makes my heart sing with every session I do. Love documenting important moments for my clients throughout their journey of life. Such an honor and something that I don`t take lightly.

Thank you Lily for leading me down this path and allowing me to do what I am truly passionate about. Getting pregnant with you was the push I needed to make my dreams a reality.

You know when people say that if you do what you love, you never work a day in your life? I can attest that is very true. It is what I hope for my daughter and all of you!

Sometimes a simplicity session is just what is needed for your newborn. Short, sweet, simple, lovely. Great for those who are on limited time and need just a few images. Inquire for details and to find out if a signature or simplicity session is what you need!
