I am excited to share these sessions. It has come to no surprise that the year has been hard and a holiday session was a welcome relief to just have fun with your family and relax together. This time of year is to cherish loved ones anyway but this year has been particularly important. Since I only offer to past clients I got to see many couples past and present and two very special families with little ones. I had a super secret location all lined up which was literally a half a mile from my house. I was also able to visit a local tree farm in Oxford and it made for some really enjoyable views and trees galore! Something that always makes a family is pets! Getting to see Sterling, Phoebe and Bronson just made me so happy. They were the cutest and brought the smiles.
I also got to do a studio session which was a good thing because the day we chose to shoot it was pouring outside. I am not quite how we wrangled 3 kids and my props but they came out great. The white crisp background was perfect! I also photographed my sister in law who works at a grocery store in the pharmacy. She has been doing the heavy lifting throughout this whole year and I am so proud of her (& my nephew)!
I hope you enjoy some of my favorites!
Cheers,
Mariel
