Sunday Dec. 8, 2024, Derek Smith (second shooter) and I (Lacy Walker Main Shooter) had the pleasure of photographing Lori’s family Christmas Minis at a charming little farm in Abingdon, VA. It was a picture-perfect day, filled with laughter, joy, and heartwarming moments that truly showcased the spirit of the holiday season.
Capturing the Magic
The session lasted 30 minutes, but every second was packed with fun and love from this delightful family of six. We began with photos in front of a beautifully decorated wagon, where the kids gleefully took turns petting the pony. The smiles on their faces were priceless, and it was a great way to start the session.
We then moved on to the tractor, a highlight for the boys. They couldn’t resist a playful scuffle, each trying to claim the driver’s seat, much to everyone’s amusement. Their energy and antics brought a lively spark to the session, making for some candid and memorable shots.
The girls, on the other hand, brought a touch of elegance with their poised poses and bright smiles. They made every moment in front of the camera count, and their cooperation was a photographer’s dream.
The family also enjoyed photos in the cozy greenhouse, which added a rustic yet festive charm to the shoot. The warm lighting and lush greenery made it a perfect backdrop for capturing the love and connection this family shares.
One of the most touching—and humorous—moments happened when Lori and her husband shared a quick kiss. The kids’ reaction? They covered their eyes and groaned, “Oh, how gross! Is it over yet?” It was a priceless family moment that perfectly reflected the fun-loving dynamics of this sweet crew.
