I’ve always loved shooting holiday photos. It takes me straight back to my childhood when my dad handed me the camera and declared me the official Christmas photographer. I must have been 11, 12, maybe 13 — old enough to feel the weight of that trust, young enough that the results were… let’s say “enthusiastic.” The pictures are honestly pretty terrible, but the fact that my dad believed in me enough to let me do it still means everything. I think that’s why I light up whenever a family trusts me with their holiday memories today.
Speaking of memories — this week a client came in for our holiday mini sessions with a beautiful request: he wanted to recreate a favorite childhood Christmas photo. Rachele and I raided the studio props, pieced together the vibe, and made it happen. The best part? He showed up fully committed — outfit, pose, and yes, even the wig. The side-by-side turned out better than we could have hoped, and watching his face when he saw it… that’s the kind of moment that reminds me why I do this.
