Holland Family Outdoor Fall Portrait Photos
It’s THAT time of year, and I look forward to seeing those families who book us every year for their Christmas portraits. The Hollands are a beloved annual date with Pixels and, no surprise, seeing them again was a shot in the arm. Parents Kevin and Tram, son Colten, and daughters Sophia and Ava are the sweetest family and good LORD, these kids won’t stop growing up on me!!
We decided once again to photograph them on their family property. We’ve done this before with them during the autumn and it’s always a good idea. The place is gorgeous and they are relaxed there, so we just roam, laugh and snap images.
The Hollands will again be using these images for holiday cards and gifts, but they’ve also had holiday portraits taken at their home, not once, but twice and again in our decorated studio!
You’ll notice some pumpkins on the the front stoop of their cabin. They grew those on the property this year and sold them as fall and Halloween approached. They told me it was quite a harvest. I love how industrious and earthy they are. In fact, Ryan and I often share/swap stuff from our garden with the Hollands and they with us. Just another reason we love them so much. I also loved seeing their sweet pup, Pearl again. She was bred and had some pups and it was fun having them and their crazy Jack Russel energy in the mix.
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 newborns and families, special events and portraits of all kinds in our Wilkesboro, NC studio. We would be honored to meet with you, learn about you and your family and be a part of taking special portraits that will become, we hope, family heirlooms.

Holiday Portraits 2020
As we await 2021, we’re still relishing the time we were able to create Christmas portraits with our holiday loving clients! We built an outdoor set up with Christmas decorations this year. They came, they smiled and we photographed it. Below are some favorite photos.

Harrison & Scott Families Christmas Portraits
The Harrison family – Jamie, Daniel, Henry and Hannah – have been in our lives since 2014. We photographed their wedding in 2015 and watched as their family grew. To say that we adored having them in our studio is an understatement. They were such fun and so easy to be around. It’s amazing to see their kids when I look back at images of them as newlyweds. One minute, you’re capturing a veiled bridal portrait and the next, you’re snuggling their children onto our holiday bench.
In 2017, we captured Hannah’s very first professional portraits. She has only gotten more yummy and cute.
The Scott’s are long time pals of ours too. Parents Julie and Jamie and kids Cameron and Courtney have been in front of our lens several times. I grew up with Julie and her sister Jenny was my best friend in childhood. I’ve known them for such a long time. It fun in between shots to crack up and catch up with their lives.
Now that the kids are growing up, we love seeing them all together for their holiday portraits. Before long, Cameron and Courtney will be off living lives of their own.

Christmas Portraits
Our studio this 2017 holiday season was a revolving door of friends, collaborators, families, children, pets and we loved it. And we took photos of them too <smirk, laugh>. Seeing the faces of some of our nearest and dearest family/friends, checking out how the children have grown and hearing about school, sports, jobs, holiday plans, what’s new for 2018 was wonderful. This time of year, a plus to photographing not only new faces, but long standing clients and pals is that we really get that time to give hugs, recalibrate, and share that sense of renewal and hope. Here are some of the faces we love!
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Love, Peace and Joy to all of you!

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!
