Dayton Christmas Family Photography Session | Dayton Christmas Family Portraits | Ohio Family Holiday Photography

Let’s talk about Christmas in July! It might seem early, but July is a great time to start thinking about your Christmas family photography in the Dayton Ohio area! I’m going to tell you all the reasons why below.

WHAT’S THE BEST TIME OF YEAR FOR A CHRISTMAS FAMILY PHOTOGRAPH DAYTON OHIO SESSION?

I recommend booking your Christmas family photography session in the Dayton Ohio area for September-November. This gives you plenty of time to get your outfits picked out, your family rounded up, your photos done and your cards printed and sent out with plenty of time to spare! My favorite time of year is October because the light is beautiful and the weather is still nice and not too cold! Book early so that you can check one thing off your Christmas to-do list early!

WHAT’S THE BEST LOCATION FOR A CHRISTMAS FAMILY PHOTO SESSION?

My favorite Dayton area location for Christmas family photo sessions is Kyle Park in Tipp City, Ohio. This location is fantastic because there are beautiful evergreen trees that give you photos a lovely Christmas feel, but your photos will still look timeless for any other time of year.

SHOULD WE USE CHRISTMAS PROPS? | Christmas Family Photography Dayton Ohio

Yes! I will bring a couple of Christmas props to ensure that your photos looks Christmas-y. I do suggest that we only use props for some of the photos, that way your photo album has range. You will have plenty of wonderful Christmas photos, as well as photos that will look timeless at any time of the year and can be displayed in your home!

Some of the props that I will provide are a “Merry Christmas” sign, a “joy” sign, Christmas wreaths, and some ornaments to decorate a tree with.

BRING OUR FAMILY PETS | DAYTON FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER

Of course! The more, the merrier! I’m always happy to work with your furry family members too. Check out this blog post for some tips on working with your family pups.

DO YOU OFFER CHRISTMAS CARDS?

Yes! This can be the hardest part (and most time consuming) of Christmas family photo sessions. If you like to send out annual Christmas cards to your friends and family, I can help you! Once you have picked out your ten favorite photos from your session, I will use these and put together three templates for you to choose from. Then you will be able to choose your favorite and order the correct number through the link that I provide!

HOW MUCH DOES THIS COST?

Packages start at $125! I’m happy to work with your family to put together a custom family session that will be the perfect fit for you! I also offer custom heirloom albums for you as well!
