A cozy light and bright mini session was not planned. This year was a bit different. I didn’t do a full weekend or even one full day of holiday mini sessions like I usually do. Like this session here. My scheduled filled up fast before I had a chance to put aside a specific day for holiday minis.

But lucky for me, I was still able to squeeze a few mini session in for some lovely client families. I didn’t have to miss out on that holiday cheer all together, and I was able to capture this time of year for them despite the hustle and bustle.

I kept the set minimal and bright and let the subjects exude cheer. It’s all about the people anyway. And I got to use my adorable 3 foot stuffed gnome that I had no business buying in the first place LOL. Isn’t he adorable!

Enjoy these super cute Christmas mini photos and I hope you have and your families have a wonderful and joyful holiday season.

  • Just because the kids are all grown, doesn’t mean Family Photos aren’t important anymore.
.
In fact, They are just as important. 
.
Time still rolls on, everybody is still changing.
.
Families with grown kids spend less time together all together in one place. Family Photos are the perfect opportunity to celebrate that time we do get together.
.

  • I’m just a girl from Indiana.

And even though I’ve lived in the New York City area for going on 25 years, I can’t help but look around and think wow this is my life.

It’s still feels surreal and like I’m on a TV show .
