This year’s Christmas setup at The Nook studio in Burlington is cozy, stylish, and perfect for families with older kids or multiple immediate family members. If your little ones have grown into teens , the studio space in Burlington offers the perfect backdrop for timeless family portraits.
✨ What makes this session special:
• Roomy studio setup — ideal for families with multiple immediate family members
• Elegant holiday décor (not too “child-like,” just the right touch of festive warmth)
• Guided posing that feels natural for older kids and teens
• Quick and relaxed sessions — we make it fun, even for camera-shy teens!
Only a few select dates are available, and booking closes soon.
Let’s capture this season while everyone’s home and together — these are the moments you’ll treasure for years to come.
Session Tips
✔️ Arrive early! 5 minutes early should be plenty. This way you’re not stressing out and you can relax in the parking lot for a few minutes
✔️ Plan your children’s sleep for that day if your session is during their sleep time.
✔️ Feed your children before the session to ensure they’re full and happy. Arrive a little earlier and do this in the car if needed.
✔️ Clean your children’s faces (eyes, nose, mouth), do your best, we don’t want any stragglers!
✔️Remove all hair ties or kids watches before the shoot to ensure no marks are there. I cannot edit out hair ties or watches.
✔️ Outfits must fit properly, be cleaned and ironed. No bright colours, no pure white or black. You don’t necessarily need to be all matching in identical outfits. Mix it up a little with textures too but stick to your color palette.
❌ No street shows. Bring clean shoes.
❌ Please, no eating in studio. Bring any supplies for your children to use after the session (snacks, treats, drinks, etc)
PARENTS
There is no pressure on your children to perform at the session, natural shots are always best and I like to shoot in a fun, relaxed and easy manner so there is no pressure on them to be perfect or looking at the camera with big perfect smiles in every shot. Please do not ask your child to smile, it will be a fake smile with squinting eyes.
✔️ It is critical you supervise your children to ensure they don’t damage any props on the day. Please note, other clients who would be left disappointed if something were to break!
HOW TO PREPARE
Location – I will provide the exact address upon booking . Please plan ahead of time and use Google Maps to determine how long it may take to arrive at the studio. Also take into consideration any traffic that may affect travel time before your Christmas mini session.
Arrive on time – Your assistance with arriving on time is so important for a successful day. When you arrive I will ask that you wait outside while other families are being photographed, purely as other clients get distracted. If you are late, I am unable to make up time, unfortunately.
