Athens Georgia Photographer ::Hawks/Whitfield/Farmer Family::

Can you imagine life without autumn? I can’t. And I could not imagine life without knowing these wonderful people either!

I have worked with Jessica and Robert time after time after time and this time they included their whole family in this delightful fall family session! Photography sessions with your extended family really bring so much more to your portrait experience because it allows you to obtain a wider variety of portraits with the people in your life that mean the most. To have professional-quality moments captured of grandchildren with their grandparents are priceless heirlooms that will be treasured for years to come.

This gang in particular has a way with me. Mostly because they continually keep me giggling all day long! It seriously is a pleasure to just fellowship with them and share a few laughs. Over the years of knowing these folks, there is also one more unifiable trait they all have in common… friendliness. They are some of the most friendly people on the planet. I’ve never had an experience with them that they haven’t loved on me as if I were a part of the family myself.

Oh and if you’re looking for some amazing jewelry, get with Jessica! She is a Stella & Dot hostess and is wonderful to work with when placing your next order! In fact, I think most of the ladies here are rocking their S&D! I ordered jewelry for some family members during Christmastime and the jewelry you get with Stella & Dot is unique, outstanding, and will take your fashion statement to the next level!

2016 Fall Mini Sessions ::{ Flowery Branch & Athens, Georgia Family Photographer }::

I hope you all have had a fun, memorable, and relaxing summer! It’s hard to believe that August is already here and that the autumn season is fast approaching! In fact, I’ve already had people starting to ask about this year’s Fall Mini Sessions! So I knew I’d better get the word out soon since my time slots for these minis book up so quickly!

It’s a GREAT DEAL that is exclusively offered to a limited number of time slots for families to book—which is why everyone wants to be part of it!  I’m even offering a gift to the first three people to book a time slot! You really won’t want to miss out!

Supporting Our Heros ::{ Athens, Georgia Family Photographer }::

With the recent activity concerning the lives of our law enforcement officers, my heart is heavy. My prayers go out to the families that have lost loved ones during these trying times. There’s really nothing I can do to end all this and replace it with world peace. But I can pray. And I can extend my gratitude toward those who diligently work toward keeping us all safe.

From my own experience, I can relate with law-enforcement families. In support of these special families, I’m choosing to offer a discount on digital collections for all families of law enforcement! Why? Because pictures matter. Because the time is now to capture the moments that aren’t promised tomorrow. Because it may be all you have left one day. Because I appreciate you. Because you deserve a grateful pat on the back.

Thank you, officers, for your service. I know what your job encompases. I know why you do what you do. I know the toll it takes on your family life. Thank you, wives/husbands of officers, for supporting your warriors, for spending nights alone, for praying protection over your husbands/wives as they seek to protect the community. Thank you, sons and daughters, for being the very motivation and drive behind all this, for sharing the time you have with your daddy/mommy, for all the hugs and kisses that make coming home even better.

To start your booking process, e-mail me at info@breathoflightimagery.com.

Grateful,
Tara Wilburn

Gowder Gang ::{ Athens, Georgia Family Photographer }::

This sweet little family has just recently been fused together by marriage and they truly make one beautiful group. I’m so glad they got to come visit me at Founder’s Memorial Garden in Athens, Georgia for a springtime portrait session. I can’t wait to see this lovely family continue to grow even closer over time.

Cake Smash Fun ::{ Athens, Georgia Baby Photographer }::

You might remember this precious sweetheart from her newborn session post a while ago. This is my beautiful niece, Ari. And she did, in fact, turn one a few weeks ago! I had so much fun photographing her smash cake session to celebrate! This girl has always loved her food and totally knew what to do with her little cake!

Announcing 2015 Fall Mini Sessions at Walnut Hill Farms ::{ Jefferson Georgia Family Photographer }::

We are so excited to announce that we will be having an exclusive Fall Mini Session rally this year at Walnut Hill Farms in Jefferson, Ga! Walnut Hill Farms is a brand new wedding and event venue that has so graciously allowed us to host our minis on their farm. This exclusive event will take place between 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. on October 18th. Time slots for booking are limited and come at a first-come-first-serve basis.

Our Fall Mini Sessions are the perfect opportunity for documenting your children, family, and even your pets as this year comes to an end! Not to mention, these portraits will be a hit for your Christmas cards. Booking a mini session is significantly discounted from our full portrait session rate! So don’t delay! Book your session today! For more information about these Fall Mini Sessions, send us an e-mail at info@breathoflightimagery.com. We are offering a FREE GIFT for the first 3 bookings!

If I could only share one word to describe what photographically draws me to this location it would be ‘dimension‘. My favorite part of Walnut Hill, apart from the wonderful landscaping and amazing decor, is the depth of the landscape itself. Looking out across the entire property you can see miles and miles of trees behind the surrounding fields. This will add dimension to your portraits! What does dimension do for your pictures? It isolates the subject (you and your beautiful family) by providing depth between the foreground and background. With the high-quality lenses I use, this is going to create yummy lens compression! Photographing your portrait at the staple walnut tree at the top of the hill (don’t worry, you don’t have to trek at all) is going to provide such a gorgeous aesthetic for you and your family. And just imagine how colorful this place will be when the leaves start turning!

Luck Family Portraits at Lake Lanier ::{ Dawsonville, Georgia Family Photographer }::

Vacationing on Lake Lanier, the Luck family knew it was a great opportunity to book a family portrait photographer. With a last name like Luck, you gotta know that these people live some fun lives! I had such a great time meeting each family of the Luck extended family as they enjoyed each other’s company on a family get-together vacation they called “Luckapalooza“!  I truly love getting to work with such fun clients. During our session, laughter resounded among the lake’s surface! What a sweet sound. This vacation was definitely one to remember, and they certainly will remember it with these pictures!

Smith Family | Hull, Georgia Portrait Photographer

 

This family right here is B-E-A-Utiful! Am I right?! I was so lucky to get to spend some time with this amazing family as we got to photograph their portrait session on the old dirt road that I grew up on in Hull. I’ve always enjoyed shooting in my neck of the woods and we definitely got some great shots the other day! With it being Thanksgiving week, Melissa wanted to take the opportunity to have pictures made with her kids while her son was home for the holiday. That being said, she called me up and we made plans! 

Council Family | Jefferson, Georgia Portrait Photographer

In case you didn’t know, the Council family immediately imprinted on my heart since the day we met. I cannot get over how beautiful they are, much less how amazingly entertaining they are to be around. We always have fun during our portrait sessions together and I had been on the edge of my seat for this session for a while. So I took them to a simplistic dirt road scene in Jefferson, Georgia where we could play with different chairs and such as a set up. I started off sketching out this set up before we had met up which made it really neat to see a simple sketch come to life.

Oh! And by the way, get in touch with Melissa for all your beauty needs! She’s the best Mary Kay consultant ever! 😉 I mean, just look at her! She clearly knows what she’s doing!
