Summer Family Photos in Oconee County, GA

Summer family photos in wooded pathway near Athens, GA

This beautiful family came to me for their summer family photos, but mainly to document their youngest daughter’s first birthday. We used the wooded pathway in my outdoor studio in Oconee County, which always leads to naturally stunning images. We started with family portraits and a few of big sister before concentrating on the Southern birthday gal.

Since the one year old is on the go, and mom wanted some of the birthday girl with balloons, I brought out a chair to attach the balloons and to keep this lil’ princess in one place. Worked out perfectly. Great place to capture images of mom with her daughters as well as the one year old for her festive birthday portraits. I coordinated the balloons to their outfits, which I had worked with mom ahead of time to make sure everything worked together. Makes such a big difference to style sessions for the best finished photographic artwork.

The birthday girl is such a sweetheart! Her personality is very easy going, fun and loving. Love all her expressions and those curls that are much like her sister’s. Could not get enough of her!

There’s something extra meaningful about an heirloom portrait when your little one is wearing something made by hand.  A homemade gown or outfit carries its own story - the time, love and care that went into creating it - making the finished portrait feel even more timeless.

These are the details that turn a beautiful image into a true family heirloom, meant to be treasured and passed down for generations.

Three months of sweet smiles, bright eyes and so much personality already. 

This little guy’s session was part of my Watch Me Grow Plan, designed to document those important milestones throughout baby’s first year. Because they change so quickly, and every stage deserves to be remembered.

If you love the idea of fall family portraits but still want plenty of soft, beautiful green in the background, now is the perfect time to schedule. 

Late summer and early fall give us that gorgeous in-between season. Lush greenery, warm light and updated portraits before the landscape begins to change.

Happy 20th birthday to my sweet Lily Mae! 

Twenty years ago today, I had no idea how completely my world was about to change. I still remember all the little details - the morning walk, making homemade cinnamon bread, the doctor’s appointment that unexpectedly turned into a hospital stay, the movie we watched while we waited for your arrival, the sweet nurses and doctors that helped welcome you into the world (thank you Mike for the epidural)…and then the moment they placed you on my chest and we met for the very first time.

I could not have asked for a better daughter. I am so incredibly proud of the woman you have become and love watching you find your own way in this world. I cannot wait to see where life takes you next.

No matter how grown you are, you will always be my baby girl. Happy 20th, Lily Mae. You are my whole world. 🤍

Happy birthday to this sweet boy! 

It has been such an honor to photograph him throughout his little life - and especially special to spend the evening before his big day capturing this season with his family.

We chose a beautiful park with easy access and very little walking, yet plenty of gorgeous spots for portraits. Add in that golden evening light, and it truly felt like a little bit of magic. 

Wishing you the happiest birthday and a wonderful year ahead!
