My kiddos around our Christmas Tree | Oklahoma City, Oklahoma Photographer 2016

This is the third year I have attempted this shot of my kiddos around the Christmas tree.  It isn’t perfect, but I love them.  Our house is pretty small and last year I downsized to a smaller, skinnier Christmas tree.  For these photos, I simply moved the tree in front of our french doors and pulled the living room rug back to try to get a little reflection from the floor.  I used my Canon 6d, 50mm 1.8, and Hoya filter to achieve the star burst on the lights.  Unfortunately, I didn’t have enough room to get the top of the tree in the photo of both kiddos and I should have used my 35mm, but the Hoya filter was on back order for that lens and I was just too impatient to wait. LOL.

The Newman Family at the Myriad Gardens in Oklahoma City

I had such a great time getting to know this lovely family.  We met down at the Myriad Gardens in Oklahoma City for their photoshoot.  Even though it was an overcast day with a cold wind, the colors were absolutely beautiful.  And this family knows how to dress for photos!  So much love in this family and it shows.
