Happy Holidays! Now that the Christmas cards have been sent out, it’s safe to share these family photos.
So during the same session where we take Halloween photos, there is a quick outfit change to make sure Christmas is covered as well.
Brushy Creek Community Center has been the site of this family’s holiday photos before. Check out Carsyn and her friend Kate as babies there from way back in 2013.
Please enjoy some favorite pictures from their portrait session below. Full gallery (password protected) available HERE.
1. How do you know Stephanie Friedman Photography?
Stephanie has been taking beautiful photos of my daughter and I since she was an infant.
2. What was your favorite part of your photo session?
One of my favorite parts, in addition to the sheer magic Stephanie has in capturing the most incredible moments, is her flexibility. We combine a Halloween and Christmas shoot together, arriving dressed fancy for Christmas photos and then doing a quick change into my daughter Halloween costume. We are all busy, and this year obviously posed increased challenges with Covid-19, so it is super important to me to have this combined session. On that note, Stephanie was exceptionally conscious of health and safety needs – wearing a mask and maintaining distancing during the shoot
3. What advice would you give to other people planning a branding session?
Plan your outfit and the theme of the shoot in advance and Stephanie will help you determine the PERFECT location to serve as the most fitting backdrop. Last year she found a mansion for us to shoot my daughter as a vampire for Halloween that also had a beautiful garden and gazebo for our concurrent Christmas photos.
4. Anything else to add?
I have said it before, and I will say it again. Stephanie not only takes absolutely stunning photos, but she does it with laughter and joy. She makes the entire photo shoot fun (including being a kid whispered) and the results exceed my expectations every single year.
