Extended Family Photography Session in Athens, GA


There’s nothing sweeter than gathering the whole family together and capturing those once-in-a-lifetime moments. I recently had the honor of photographing this extended family at their home in Jennings Mill, just outside of Athens, GA. The evening couldn’t have been more perfect—the golden light, the laughter, and the joy of everyone being together made for such a special session.

Extended family sessions are some of my favorites because they tell such a complete story. Parents, grandparents, siblings, and cousins all in one place—it’s the kind of memory that only becomes more meaningful as the years go by. This family wanted to document multiple generations together, and their Jennings Mill home provided the perfect backdrop for their photos.

We captured a mix of large group portraits, smaller family combinations, and candid moments in between. From the kids’ playful smiles to the grandparents beaming with pride, every photo reflects their connection and love for one another.


If you’ve been thinking about booking an extended family session in Athens, Bogart, Watkinsville, Monroe, Madison, Jefferson or surrounding areas in Georgia, now is the perfect time. These gatherings don’t happen often, and photos like this become priceless heirlooms for future generations.


Whether you’d like your session at a meaningful location like your home, or at one of the many beautiful spots around Athens—such as Founders Garden, Heritage Park, Harris Shoals, Thomas Farm, Lake Herrick, or the Botanical Gardens—I’ll help you choose a location that fits your family’s style.
