As the holiday season winds down, I find myself reflecting on the magic of Christmases past. This year looked a little different for me. With limited access to a studio, (we let the studio go in August).  I wasn't able to capture as many of those classic, cozy Christmas portraits as I have in years before. It’s bittersweet, but it’s also a gentle reminder that every season of life brings its own rhythm.

While I missed the flurry of holiday shoots — the twinkling lights, the matching pajamas, and the pure joy on children’s faces — I’m incredibly grateful for the beautiful memories I made last year. Those sessions were filled with laughter, love, and a whole lot of holiday cheer. I’ll never forget the fun moments shared with families, friends, and little ones who lit up the camera with their joy and wonder.
