Holiday family photos without the stress
Every December the same question comes up: when are we getting a nice family photo? Holiday minis are the easy answer. You show up, I guide you through relaxed, natural poses, and about a week later you have a gallery ready for cards, frames and grandparents.
I'm a Fort Collins family photographer and a toddler mom myself. Wiggles, meltdowns and snack breaks are part of the plan, not a problem.

What to wear for Christmas photos in Fort Collins
Coordinate, don't match. Pick 2–3 colors: cream, burgundy, forest green, camel and denim all look warm.
Choose texture. Knit sweaters, flannel, velvet and soft dresses photograph beautifully.
Skip big logos and neon (unless this is your style). They pull attention from faces.
Plan for Colorado weather. [If outdoors: bring a cozy coat and gloves for between shots. If indoors: no coats needed.]
Dress kids last and bring a snack and a favorite toy.
