Holland Family In Home Christmas Photos

This is not a first and it certainly isn’t a first with this gorgeous family. In 2016, we visited the Holland family at their home to shoot Christmas holiday portraits and we were delighted to return this year to repeat the fun.

It was wonderful to see parents Kevin and Tram and their three children, Colton, Ava and Sophia. Relaxing and decorating the tree were an easy part of the day. Their home is lovely and we always enjoy this slice of life, documentary style of photo session.

Not only are the kids continuing to grow before our very eyes, the family has added a new puppy to the mix. Seriously? The only thing that can improve upon the beautiful setting, the season and the family is the addition of a little snuggle-bun in the form of a Jack Russell.

Merry Christmas to EVERYONE out there! Ryan and I wish you nothing but joy, health and peace this season.

We change it up every year, but the organization and ease on you is the same! You’ll be cozy and won’t have to do a thing at your own home.

If you want to have your portraits for the holidays taken at your home, we can make that happen too and it’s NOT as huge a deal as you might imagine. Just call and ask us about dates and times that are still available. The setting can be tidy and a bit more formal….

…. or you can relax at home and just be together in your space, doing your thing. The only exception is that you don’t have to be behind the camera. You can read books, decorate or have an all out free for all. We don’t judge. We just capture!

Christmas is Coming – Time to Schedule Your In-Home Portraits

So much to do, so much to plan, so much to organize… and folks, I am right there with you. The mind reels during the holiday season. No sooner have you taken the surplus Halloween candy to work, than you’re gearing up for Thanksgiving. But we hope that you find time for making memories and capturing them for posterity. We managed to get out with our little pumpkin – Finley –  to enjoy some warm temps.

But here is one task you can check off your list in 5 minutes: scheduling your Christmas portrait session. While you may not know exactly what you want your holiday portraits or cards to look like, or what you want your family to be wearing, or if you want to include pets, it’s time to call and schedule your in-home portraits session.
Pajamas and tree decorating. Check.
Wrapping presents around a fire. No problem.
Playing touch football in the yard. Sure.
Decorating cookies and destroying the kitchen. Why not?
Playing board games or lying in a pile watching the Grinch or reading The Night Before Christmas. Absolutely.

… whatever the tableau, we’re in to brainstorm, laugh with you, help with the idea and document it. At home sessions are WAY MORE FUN than you know, unless you’ve booked us for a one in the past. Families have told us how thrilled they are to have these specific memories forever.
