Christmas Mini Photo Session
Another year of gorgeous images in time for Christmas at my Christmas Mini Photo Session a few weeks ago. Here's just a few of the images captured on the day. The outdoor setting is just wonderful, a real log cabin dressed with real Christmas trees with an old wooden sledge and a lovely door wreath. Not to mention the copious amounts of (not real) snow! The snow we use is paper based and from a television production company that provides snow for TV and films. I think it looks amazing and the kids always have so much fun playing with it during the session - especially when it starts to 'snow'! And, it's not cold, so that's a bonus.
I love these magical sessions, they signal the start of Christmas for me and make me want to rush home and start putting up the decorations - I've managed to resist so far, but this weekend I'm going to set to work! I especially love photographing siblings in this setting - there's really nothing cuter than seeing them enjoying the snow together and snuggling up in their Christmas jumpers.
Massive thanks to my helpers Tracey and Craig, without whom I would have been at a loss! They were the ones making it snow and keeping out the pesky sun and/or rain. We really did have every weather on the day!
I know it's a bit early to say it, but I can't help myself. Merry Christmas everyone! Gem xx
Christmas Mini Sessions!
Christmas Mini Sessions with Gemma Griffiths Photography.
Check out the images below to see the gorgeous location of the Christmas mini sessions. Not only do we have our own log cabin and real Christmas trees but we have snow too! What's not to like? It's a win win win.
We had so much fun shooting these images! We started of with a lovely log cabin backdrop and then started adding all our Christmas props, plus the magical element of snow. There were siblings and cousins as well as the pet dog too. Add a dash of snow and some woolly hats and you've got the perfect recipe for a Christmas photo shoot. That's your Christmas card sorted, not to mention some gifts for the grandparents.
Just look at the very cheeky grins and you can see how much fun the kids had. Trying to fit three children and a dog onto a wooden sledge is not easy!
