Perfect Time for Christmas Portraits

Cue the string lights, pour the cocoa, and turn on your favorite holiday playlist — Christmas portrait season is officially here. And if you’ve ever said, “we’ll do it next year”… consider this your nutmeg-scented nudge to finally book that session.

At Ginger Liemohn Creative, holiday portraits go far beyond greeting cards and Instagram squares. They’re time capsules — capturing the warmth, laughter, and beautiful chaos of your family during the most magical season of the year.


Why Now Is the Perfect Time

Let’s be honest — your home probably already looks like a winter wonderland. Garland, twinkle lights, stockings… the stage is already set! The only thing missing? You and your people, right in the center of it.

Here are a few more reasons why December is prime time for a cozy, heartwarming photoshoot:

  • Your home is already photo-ready: Your decor does half the styling work. Whether it’s a tree full of ornaments or a wreath on the front door, holiday touches make every shot sparkle.
  • Matching pajamas are holiday gold: Coordinated looks add timeless charm — and pajama sets always bring out the giggles (and the snuggles).
  • Grandparents love framed holiday photos: There’s nothing better than gifting memories — and a portrait session is a present that keeps on giving.
  • You’ll finally be in the photo too: Say goodbye to the days of hiding behind the camera. This is your moment to shine with your family — in front of the lens.

And don’t worry about perfection. The best holiday portraits come from real moments — laughter, crooked antlers, cookie crumbs, and all.

Choose Your Holiday Vibe

This isn’t your average studio setup. Think of it more like your very own Home Alone moment — full of spirit, messiness, and joy. We love helping families create a cozy backdrop that feels like a holiday movie come to life.

Some of our favorite settings include:

  • In-home magic with string lights, candles, and fuzzy blankets
  • Snowy front porches with mugs of hot cocoa and knit scarves
  • Downtown holiday strolls with twinkle-lit trees and local charm
  • Kids in elf hats, pets in reindeer sweaters, and parents under mistletoe

Whether you’re going for warm and relaxed or festive and fancy, we’ll tailor the vibe to fit your family’s energy and style. Bonus points if the dog refuses to sit still — we embrace the chaos here.

Portraits Make the Best Presents

Still searching for a gift that feels meaningful? A holiday portrait session is more than just photos — it’s an experience.

Booking a shoot is like hitting pause during a hectic season. It’s a way to slow down and simply be together. It’s a chance to show up for your family, be silly, be sweet, and capture the little things that make this time of year unforgettable.

Whether you print them, frame them, or use them for next year’s holiday card, these portraits become part of your family’s story — the kind of keepsakes you’ll pull out for years to come.

And let’s be honest — Grandma will love it more than another candle set.

Don’t Wait — Final Spots Are Almost Gone!

We’re in the home stretch of the season, and our calendar is filling fast. If you’ve been on the fence, now’s the time to jump in like a kid into a pile of wrapping paper.
