St. Louis Maternity Photographer | Precious Cargo!

What a difference a day can make! Anyone who knows St. Louis understands that the weather can change in an instant and that has certainly been the case lately. Less than a week ago it was almost 80 degrees and then Saturday we had about five inches of snow. The very next day, all the snow was gone and unfortunately so were the pretty pink flowers on some of the local trees. So sad as I was wanting to incorporate those Spring trees in this couple’s maternity session yesterday. No worries though…we found Spring around us in other ways. These weeping willows were fresh and green for us! We even found an area with a rows of white flowered trees! Sure it was quite chilly, but that didn’t seem to phase this mom-to-be in the slightest. She even changed into tank tops and bared her belly for some shots! Her husband was such the gentleman by warming her up with his coat and my blanket. After all, as he pointed out, there’s precious cargo there! I agree! These two couldn’t be more loving and sweet towards each other. You’d think they were still honeymooners instead of being together since college undergrad. Their baby is going to be one lucky girl for sure. Congrats and I can’t wait to meet the lil’ one! Until then…enjoy the sneak peek.

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!
