Time to Schedule you Christmas & Holiday In-Home Portraits

As you print out the Butterball turkey hotline number to put on the frig, iron bedding for out-of-town guests (I have a friend who ACTUALLY does this, but she told me she’d kill me if I shared her number), stock the pantry, sharpen your knives, throw out the old bathroom soap, and get everything else pulled together for Thanksgiving, I want to give you a loving tap on the shoulder and remind you that it’s time to be thinking about your holiday portrait session. This year, we’re doing in-home sessions only, because not only do we love doing them, more importantly, YOU GUYS told us you love them too.
We made this decision also because we remember the best things about Christmas happen at home. Here’s a little excerpt I wrote about our reasoning from 2016:

For us, this year has been hectic, challenging and rewarding all at the same time. Through it all I’ve been very reflective and God has been incredibly forthcoming in showing me direction and insight all along the way both in my personal journey and the path of our business. I want all the work we do to be done with intention and relevance.

Nothing is more important during the holidays (or anytime for that matter) than family. When trying to create the concept for this year’s Christmas theme “family” and “home” continued to resonate in my mind. I wanted a way to create a personal experience for each of our clients, so my resolution is to offer in-home Christmas sessions.

I want to capture families gathered around trees with handmade ornaments, trees where all the fragile ornaments are at a height away from little fingers, stockings are personalized and tree toppers are those that have been passed through generations. I’d love to capture children in their Christmas PJs while they show me an ornament they made at school. Children years from now will recognize their surroundings in a photograph. What it looks like is different for every single one of our clients.

The same is true two years later. We want to be in your world during one of the most important holidays and seasons each year.
In-home sessions allow you to be more relaxed while we document the season, your family, playing games, eating and “doing life.” Some families want to dress up and make it more festive, others hang in their pjs. It’s ALL good.
Our prices have not changed since 2016! Give us a call or send us an email and let’s get you and your in-home photo session on the calendar.


We love family portraits whether they are set in the studio, the great outdoors, a specific location like the mountains or high country, or on our property in our outdoor portrait garden. Pixels on Paper photographs, engagements and weddingsbrides, and special events and portraits  of all kinds in our Wilkesboro, NC studio.

Christmas & Holiday Card & Gift Season is Upon Us ~ order now!

Every year, the Christmas cards roll in and occasionally there is a Russian novel masquerading as a “newsletter.” I’m not one to throw shade at the Christmas letter; we all celebrate milestones, travel, struggle and survive, start and end chapters and it’s worth noting. But you can do it in pictures. I’m just saying…. show a series of pics, write a little, say a lot and you’re off. Pixels is happy to help you create cards and the attendant gifts.

As we book At Home portrait sessions and sessions in our Pixels studio for the holiday season, we can also create your Christmas cards. ANY PHOTOS taken by Pixels during 2017 – and this includes any of the holiday “At Home” or portrait sessions –  can be used for your holiday cards.

Cards, prints, canvases, calendars and other markers of your year make amazing gifts. Don’t forget that sometimes what your relatives need are not more pillows or gift cards and replicates of what you made last year, but something they will enjoy all year.

We need to receive your orders by December 10th to ensure you get them in time, but you can order when you’re ready. Simply contact us to get started!
