Since opening my studio in downtown Frederick this past March, I’ve had in mind the idea to host a studio holiday mini session date. Typically families come to me for outdoor sessions in the fall for their holiday cards, or they do annual photos at outdoor locations throughout the year. I knew that having an easy mini option for families to pop in quickly for a fast family session – despite any weather elements – would be really nice for holiday cards.
I set up clean, minimal holiday decor with a simple classic evergreen wreath, and then let the white classic studio backdrop speak for itself. Some families chose to pick items from my studio wardrobe, where I had procured several deep and white red dresses and skirts, as well as gorgeous evergreen wreaths for hairstyles. These mini sessions turned out more beautiful than I had ever imagined, and totally kicked off my holiday spirit. There is something special about being in downtown Frederick over the holiday season with their twinkle lights, parades, carriage rides and hot cocoa stands, and this added to the season perfectly. I had some special gorgeous custom holiday card designs, framed prints, and custom handmade wood ornaments on display as well which were so pretty! Here are some sneak peeks of these two amazing days – and I’m already getting creative on ideas for next year! Enjoy and happiest holiday from our family to yours!
