Why You Should Book Your Family Photographer Early for the Holidays

The holiday season is fast approaching, and now is the perfect time to book your family photographer. Whether you're looking for updated family portraits for holiday cards, gifts for loved ones, or simply want to capture this special time of year, scheduling your session early ensures you get the best results and a stress-free experience. Here’s why locking in your session now makes all the difference:


  1. Secure Your Ideal Date and Time

The holiday season fills up fast for family photographers. As families prepare for holiday cards and celebrations, dates get booked quickly. By scheduling now, you can secure the session that fits your family’s schedule and allows for the best lighting and location options. Plus, if you're in an area with unpredictable weather (hello, Spokane!), booking early gives us flexibility for rescheduling if needed.

  1. More Time for Editing and Printing

Booking your session early means you have plenty of time to review your photos, choose your favorites, and get them professionally edited. With photographers taking on a high volume of work during the holiday season, an early booking guarantees you’ll receive your images in time for holiday cards, framed prints, or custom gifts—without any last-minute stress.


  1. Perfect Timing for Holiday Cards

Many families book holiday photos for cards. By getting your photos done early, you have enough time to design, order, and mail them out. Waiting until November or December means risking tight timelines with printing and delivery. Booking early ensures you can relax and know your cards will arrive on time.


  1. Best Light and Scenery

Planning your photoshoot for early fall or winter lets you capture the season’s best backdrops and lighting. Fall offers vibrant leaves and soft, golden light, perfect for holiday photos. Winter in Spokane provides stunning snowy landscapes that add a festive touch. By booking early, we can plan your session around optimal lighting to make your photos shine.


  1. Less Stress During the Holiday Rush

The holiday season is hectic enough without adding last-minute photoshoots to the mix. Booking ahead ensures your family portraits are taken care of before the holiday rush begins. You’ll enjoy a relaxed, fun session without feeling pressured by the season’s chaos. This stress-free approach also leads to better photos, especially if you have little ones who pick up on your mood.


  1. Time for Customized Sessions and Props

If you want to add personal touches like themed props, matching outfits, or holiday décor, booking early gives you time to plan. Whether it's cozy winter sweaters or festive holiday décor, early booking allows us to create a thoughtful session that reflects your family’s unique style.


  1. Prime Locations Before They’re Booked

The most popular outdoor locations get reserved quickly during the holiday season. Booking your session now ensures you can secure the perfect spot, whether you're envisioning a fall setting with golden leaves or a snowy winter wonderland.
