Our Christmas Card Photo Shoot

Welcome back from the weekend!  We had a fun-filled Christmas tree trimming, hall-decking, cookie-eating, egg nog drinking time!  Now that it's December, I officially consider it Christmas season.  Because of this I will be posting about Christmas themed subjects all month long!

Simon and I sent out Christmas cards once six years ago.  They were handmade by myself and turned out great IMO.  We haven't sent them out since...for no particular reason.  It's funny because I design and sell Christmas cards, so you would think that I would send cards out yearly.

Anyway, Simon suggested that we send out cards this year so I agreed.  I set up a couple of Christmas scenes in our backyard, we got dressed up, pulled out some Christmas props and got to shooting!

Here are a few of our photos.  I will post the final card once we have sent them out.



Do you send out holiday cards, or are you more of a "Merry Christmas" text message person?

  2. These pics are fantastic!

    I am so not organized enough for Christmas cards. I can't bring myself to even think about Christmas before Thanksgiving and once Thanksgiving is here there never seems to be enough time. I figure once we have kids we'll start that tradition :)

    1. I feel the same way, that's why we haven't sent out cards in so long! That was the first and last time, but true, once we grow our family I'm sure it will become a tradition :)

  3. AWW,this is sweet. Looks like the two of you had a lot of fun. I got my first card in the mail today from our friends. The husband is a photographer and they had the cutest picture. I am now insisting that we take pictures and send them out too!
