2025 Holiday Mini-Sessions in Orange County

2025 Holiday Family Sessions in Orange County


I love this little Holiday tradition we’ve built together. Every year, as the long summer days start to shorten and the first hint of crispness sneaks into the air, I start thinking about one of my favorite traditions—holiday mini-sessions.

It’s funny… I used to think of the holiday season as a whirlwind of events, travel, and checklists. But since becoming a family photographer in Orange County, I’ve discovered something magical about slowing down for just 25 minutes with a family, capturing them exactly as they are in that moment. Over the years, I’ve watched babies become toddlers, toddlers turn into big kids, and couples grow into parents. And it’s a gift I don’t take for granted.

This year’s holiday sessions in Orange County feel extra special. I’ve added a few new locations I’m really excited about—places that have that perfect mix of natural light and beautiful scenery. Some are familiar favorites with a little twist, and some are brand new, waiting to be part of your family’s story.

If you’ve done one of my holiday mini-sessions before, you already know they’re quick, fun, and relaxed—no stiff posing, no endless “just one more” shots. We get the smiles, the laughter, and those sweet candid moments that always end up being everyone’s favorite.

And these aren’t just for families with little kids. Over the years, I’ve photographed couples, maternity announcements, grandparents with their grandkids, even a few surprise proposals during the holiday season. Many of my locations are pet-friendly too, because honestly—why should the family dog miss out on the Christmas card?

Now that I’m juggling photography and life with a busy toddler, my calendar fills even faster than it used to, so I’m only taking on a limited number of sessions this year. If you’ve been meaning to book, I’d love for you to grab your spot early so we can make it happen.

Here’s to another season of joy-filled images, happy memories, and traditions worth keeping. I can’t wait to see you in front of my camera this holiday season.
