Urban Christmas Tree Lot Family Moments: A Festive Lifestyle Shoot

This lovely family requested that I capture some lifestyle Christmas Family Photos at a Tree Lot in the city. I was immediately drawn to their concept. They aimed for lifestyle family photos that illustrated their first Christmas as a family selecting a tree together. Located just a few blocks from their snug home in Boise, Idaho, we visited an urban Tree Lot situated in a parking area. I trailed their incredibly adorable toddler as she explored every tree, savored a candy cane, and shared numerous kisses with her parents. It was such an enjoyable occasion!

The Christmas season always feels like a unique time for family gatherings. Being a sentimental person at heart, preserving those cherished family moments ignites my creativity. I have splendid memories from my childhood of picking out Christmas Trees alongside my sister and parents at Tree Lots. Knowing that little Daphne will possess these photos to reflect on in the future fills me with joy! I also cherish setting aside time in my calendar for lifestyle Christmas family photos every year around the holiday season.

My top recommendation as a lifestyle family photographer is to consider family photos as an experience. Organize an activity that both you and your family love doing together. Whether it be a hike, preparing pancakes, walking your dog in your favorite park, decorating for Christmas, etc. Engaging in a genuine activity as a family generates extraordinarily special photos that appear authentic because they are genuine.

Family Photos at the Christmas Tree Lot

You might recall that I took a wonderful family’s Christmas card photos at a Tree Farm last year in 2023. Right away, they became some of my favorite lifestyle family photos from the entire year! Additionally, I have documented numerous Lifestyle Christmas Family Photos sessions over the years. The Treasure Valley boasts several plant nurseries, Tree farms, and many locations perfect for Christmas photography! Next on my wishlist of ideal photo sessions is an ice skating family photoshoot.
