Christmas Magic is Here at Danna Ward Photography!
Full Session Winner: 8 additional images — a $80 value
Have family coming to town for Thanksgiving or Christmas? This is also a wonderful opportunity to update your family portraits while everyone is together — something that becomes more precious with every passing year.
Each year, I design timeless Christmas sets created to capture the warmth, wonder, and joy of the holiday season.
Whether you're updating your family portrait, celebrating your little ones, creating meaningful gifts for grandparents, or designing this year's Christmas cards, these sessions are about more than photographs. They're about preserving a little piece of your family's Christmas story to treasure for years to come.
Four Beautiful Christmas Experiences
This year's Christmas collection features four beautiful fine-art holiday sets, each offering a completely different Christmas experience. Choose the setting that feels most like your family's Christmas — or ask about including both in your session!

What Should We Wear?
Holiday portraits look best in coordinated colors rather than perfectly matching outfits.
I recommend:
Creams, ivory, beige, and soft neutrals
Deep greens
Burgundy or rich reds
Warm browns
Plaids and cozy knit sweaters
Velvet, lace, and textured fabrics
Please avoid bright neon colors, large logos, or busy patterns that distract from your family's expressions (including socks).
