Christmastime (and winter) is the most energetic and exciting time to take photographs for a variety of reasons – the natural elements, the captivating and imaginative decorations (including Christmas lights) and the festive mood that overcomes whole communities, with some of the most evocative images being found at night. Holidays are days that highlight the importance of relationships, with Christmas being the granddaddy of them all. The stress and pressure of the passing year may wear on everyone, yet everyone is glad to relax and spend time with family. As with Thanksgiving, you have a chance to take photographs that define emotional moments for years, if not decades to come. The joy of the “giving season” amplifies the emotional connection and photographers everywhere are busy with Christmas sessions. Fellow photographer Joe Pearson invited me over to check out his new studio (which is pretty impressive) and I took the opportunity to shoot Barrie model Tabatha and her boyfriend Jordan. Tabatha had a Christmas concept for a photo that she was excited to shoot and we certainly captured some Christmas magic during the photo session… heres a few favourites
