We are half way through November and if you’re going to make your own Christmas cards you need to get a move on! I think it’s lovely to create your own Christmas card, even if it’s just for family. It is also really fun to do the mini photoshoot to get the pictures, or at least it can be!
I have just done my shoot with Baby and while it didn’t turn out exactly as I pictured it, I think I got a shot I can use. Before I started I had a poke around to see what sort of images I liked, getting a little inspiration and here are some of the ideas that I thought were great.
The pictures I have picked are for a range of ages and also include a variety of props. Some pictures only needing a santa hat, while others need a little more preparation. You might find that one of these pictures inspires you to produce your own take on the image.
