In front of a backdrop of city lights and festivities
The holidays can transform even the most practical cities into dreamy wonderlands of twinkling lights, markets, and festive events.
And our photographers know how to make the most of these exciting backdrops. It can be as intimate as capturing the two of you strolling along a festive avenue to photographing the entire family carousing in one of the many markets that spring up this time of year. If you live in a city or are spending your holidays in a cityscape, frame yourself in the dazzling architecture, decorated doors, and fun shop windows of the season.
Here are some cities that will take your holidays and photos to a new level: Paris, New York, and London.

With fresh air and sleigh rides in the country
As exciting as the city can be, there’s something appealing and irresistible about a country holiday experience. It’s what’s painted on chocolate boxes and written about in books. It’s why we light candles in dark windows and create cakes that look like Yule logs.
Thankfully our photographers live near and far and are always up for a country adventure that will give you beautiful holiday photos full of character and atmosphere. Are you and your family going on the hunt for the perfect Christmas tree? Are you thinking of proposing to the love of your life in a horse-drawn sled, or do you just want to capture the silent serenity of a snowy forest then make a chorus of snow angels and build the ultimate snowmen? And the countryside is where you can make the most of greens, browns, and rustic backdrops, even without snow, and pair festive red dresses and cream-colored sweaters with the natural setting.
All of these moments deserve to be captured this holiday season so bring one of our professional photographers along.
Beneath a blanket of sparkling stars in the desert
The desert has a special place in many stories of old associated with this time of year, and whether you subscribe to these beliefs and traditions or not, there’s no denying the desert is a dramatic backdrop for unique, captivating holiday photos, from Morocco to Arizona!
Epic cities like Dubai are perched on the desert’s edge and a perfect launching point into undulating dunes that can be experienced on night tours that let you gaze up into the dark sky and millions of stars millions of miles from the holiday craziness. If the Christmas story is close to your heart you might spend time searching for that special Christmas star.
Whether in the Saguaro National Desert, the Arabian Desert, or the Gobi Desert, our intrepid local photographers can bring your vision of holiday desert photos to life in color or black and white.
Amidst sunsets and splashing waves at the beach
Whether the holidays naturally occur for you in a tropical setting or you go in search of sunshine and sparkling seas, being warmed by sun and sand can be the ultimate way to relax and savor the holiday season.
The beach can also be the ultimate setting for a holiday photoshoot, where white sandy beaches take the place of white snowy fields. Whatever your holiday traditions and beliefs, it is undeniably fun to capture holiday celebrations with umbrella drinks, saturated sunsets, and the crashing waves rather than the traditional trimmings. If you can manage it this year, we recommend the beaches of Maui, the nightlife of Miami, and the festive atmosphere of Cancun as backdrops for your holiday celebrations and photos!
Whatever place you choose to lounge this holiday season, our local photographers are available to ensure no missed moment!
Amongst family and tradition at home
Finally, there may be no more perfect place to spend the holidays and capture the most heartfelt photos than amongst the traditions of home, whether at your own place or that of a beloved family member.
The holidays bring many of us closest to our family and those traditions that are woven through our family histories and stories. It can be far too easy to enjoy them without capturing them, but with one of our professional photographers on hand, you can do both. Whether you want a planned photoshoot in front of the tree or chimney hung with stockings, during a holiday party filled with candlelights and specially prepared foods, or sitting together sharing stories and remembering loved ones, our photographers will help you effortlessly capture it all.
Those special photos will then go out in New Year cards and emails, and become an integral part of your family’s memories and heritage.
To all our customers, near and far, however, you celebrate the holidays and wherever you find yourself this year, we wish you love, light, and joy this season! And many photographs 📸
