Holiday Mini Sessions at Studio 388 in Kankakee, Illinois

Holiday mini sessions at Studio 388 in Kankakee were pure magic this year!

On this special day, I photographed nine families in the studio, and it truly was one of my favorite days of the entire year. We’re a family that doesn’t decorate for Christmas until after Thanksgiving, so hosting holiday photos beforehand always feels a little like I’m pressing the gas pedal on the season. But gosh, it is always the sweetest way to kick off the holidays!

This year, I loved incorporating a few new touches into the setup. My new studio Christmas trees and white floor mat pulled everything together so beautifully and created the coziest, cheerful holiday backdrop. I’m totally in love with how everything came together!

It’s such a joy to welcome families into the studio for these sessions each year. From kids in their holiday jammies to sweet couples celebrating their traditions, the energy in the studio is unmatched on this day. I’m always so grateful for my amazing clients and the chance to create these memories for them.

If you’re loving what you see at Studio 388, the studio is available for family sessions photographed by yours truly and available for rent to photographers. I’m so thankful to share this space with my clients and with our local creative community.

Enjoy a few favorites from this year’s holiday mini sessions at the studio!
