This is super fun, right?!

The concept here began about a month before the shoot. My client wanted to do something different for her holiday cards, and thought a late 1970’s early 1980’s retro-vibe would be so cute. Thats when the planning and styling began…In order to pull this off we needed the right things to tell the story. Retro rollerskates, skateboards, colorful jackets and a boom box make this shoot extra. And I love extra.

When it came to designing and printing the holiday card, I chose a retro 70s-80s font. We used some lingo from back-in-the-day for the cards wording.

Coming into your holiday photoshoot with an idea is never a bad idea. Run it by your photographer or if you are the photographer, run it by your client. Prepare and gather the story telling items and then roll with it. These are the things that set your card apart from everyone else, and also are what make a photoshoot that much more fun. I’m sure the kids will never forget this day!
