Merry Christmas, Darlings

Christmas Tree Farm Film Family Session

When Nikki asked me to photograph her beautiful family, I was so honored! As a mother and creative, she has incredible taste and we vibed so well immediately. When discussing a vision for the shoot, we landed on this Christmas Tree Farm to document Lena’s first memorable Christmas (first Christmases are special, but there’s something about the way children embrace the awe and wonder in the subsequent holidays). Enjoy some of my favorite moments on film (processed and scanned by Photovision).  Nikki Santerre_Virginia Film Motherhood Photographer_Nikki Christmas Film_0001                                                                                                                                                                                                               Nikki Santerre_Virginia Film Motherhood Photographer_Nikki Christmas Film_0002 Nikki Santerre_Virginia Film Motherhood Photographer_Nikki Christmas Film_0003 Nikki Santerre_Virginia Film Motherhood Photographer_Nikki Christmas Film_0004 Nikki Santerre_Virginia Film Motherhood Photographer_Nikki Christmas Film_0005 Nikki Santerre_Virginia Film Motherhood Photographer_Nikki Christmas Film_0006 Nikki Santerre_Virginia Film Motherhood Photographer_Nikki Christmas Film_0007 Nikki Santerre_Virginia Film Motherhood Photographer_Nikki Christmas Film_0008 Nikki Santerre_Virginia Film Motherhood Photographer_Nikki Christmas Film_0009 Nikki Santerre_Virginia Film Motherhood Photographer_Nikki Christmas Film_0010 Nikki Santerre_Virginia Film Motherhood Photographer_Nikki Christmas Film_0011 Nikki Santerre_Virginia Film Motherhood Photographer_Nikki Christmas Film_0012 Nikki Santerre_Virginia Film Motherhood Photographer_Nikki Christmas Film_0013  Location: Mill Farm Williamsburg, VA // Skirt: Jenny Yoo Louise Tulle Skirt from BHLDN// Lena’s Dress: Zara // Lena’s Coat: Rylee + Cru // Lena’s Bow: Fourth + Pierce // Lena’s Doll: Hazel Village

Jennie & Reagan

Mother & Daughter Fine Art Portrait Session

 

Within the walls of Ardlie, Jennie’s family shared their lives together, surrounded around “Bumble,” Jennie’s Grandmother. Her fondest memories from childhood included intricate searches for hidden treasures at Christmas and Thanksgiving feasts around Bumble’s dining room table. Returning to Ardlie is sacred for Jennie because it reminds her of the days when Bumble was still here. When she walked through the threshold of the front door on Saturday, it only took one waft of air through the doorway to bring a flood of memories. “It still smells like Grandma’s,” she sighed.

There was never a question in Jennie’s mind once Reagan was born that she would need to take her infant daughter to see her beloved Grandmother’s home. Like we did for her maternity portraits, Jennie sat in a light-drenched corner of Bumble’s living room in her favorite chair, only this time Reagan was here as well.

  • I must say, of all the cyber places you could have ended up, I’m certainly glad you chose to be here. Viewing my site is best accompanied by your choice of beverage; I recommend sweet tea, hazelnut macchiato, or Prosecco. That, and 80's music, preferably from the Breakfast Club soundtrack.
