The holiday season has become just about the craziest time of year. In more ways than one. Sometimes I find it difficult to see the joy in it when people are scrambling around for gifts, getting caught in the frenzy of thoughtless consuming, and forgetting the reason why we all loved this time of year so much in the first place.
We love it because it’s a season of, well… love. Family, friends, neighbours, strangers, humanity, we all take the time to slow down and wish each other good health, prosperity, peace, and happiness. For a little while we acknowledge the common thread that binds us all together, we can really gives thanks for having people we love nearby.
The gift of family portraiture isn’t simply a physical present to hand to someone. It’s the experience of bringing the family together for a session, co-creating the portrait together and bringing the essence of the family into each photograph. It’s the memories of those loved ones you can keep with you, whether as framed art or as a little reminder everytime you open your wallet.
Really enjoy that special time of year by planning ahead and getting your gifts early! Sleigh bells will be ringing in the barn all season. BYOR (Bring Your Own Reindeer).
