Portrait of Mother Daughter Connections in Athens, GA

I adore portraits of mother daughter connections. Such a special bond. I had the opportunity to photograph this precious two year old with her mom yesterday at their home in Athens. These two get to spend quality alone time together while big brother is off at school and dad is at work. I know these moments are cherished and meaningful to both mother and daughter. I love the image below as it really is a glimpse into their lives and the happiness they bring each other. There is nothing like a hug from your child. Such pure sweetness and unconditional love. I think images like this are so important to have as the time is so fleeting and with a blink of an eye our children are grown and not wanting cuddle time. Most moms are behind the camera documenting their children’s lives. It can be rare to be in front of the camera with our children. I’m guilty of this myself. I have to remind myself to hand the camera off to my husband for at least one shot to prove that I was actually there too. It’s why I always make sure to get updated professional portraits with my family at least once a year. It’s these connections that mean so much and are so worth capturing and securing as family heirlooms. If you would like images like this of you with your children, don’t wait. Contact Athens, GA family photographer, Yvonne Niemann Photography today to schedule your very own customized portrait session.

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.

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!
