Tiny Moments by Svetlana | Svetlana Boyko Photography
The holiday season is one of the most magical times of the year — cozy outfits, sweet smiles, family memories, and the excitement of creating images you will love now and look back on for years.
At Tiny Moments by Svetlana, holiday sessions are designed to be beautiful, easy, and memorable for families. Whether you are looking for Christmas photos, holiday card images, family portraits, sibling pictures, or a sweet milestone session with a seasonal look, these sessions are created to capture the warmth and joy of this special time of year.
Each holiday setup is carefully styled with attention to detail, beautiful colors, and a cozy seasonal feeling. My goal is to make the experience stress-free for parents and fun for children, while creating timeless portraits your family will treasure.

What Makes Holiday Sessions Special
Holiday pictures are more than just seasonal photos. They become part of your family’s yearly tradition.
Every year your children grow and change. Their smiles change, their personalities grow, and the little details you love right now will not stay the same forever. Holiday sessions give you a chance to pause and capture your family exactly as you are in this season.
For many families, these photos become holiday cards, gifts for grandparents, framed prints, and memories that come out year after year. There is something so special about looking back and seeing your children through each holiday season.
At Tiny Moments by Svetlana, I focus on capturing both posed and natural moments — the sweet smiles, hugs, laughter, sibling connection, and tiny details that make your family unique.
2026 Holiday Setups
Each year, holiday setups are carefully planned and styled. The 2026 holiday sessions will include beautiful seasonal designs created for a cozy, timeless, and festive feel.
Setups may include classic Christmas colors, soft neutral holiday tones, winter-inspired details, cozy textures, twinkle lights, trees, gifts, and carefully chosen props that photograph beautifully.
The goal is to create images that feel festive but still timeless. I want your photos to look beautiful on holiday cards, in albums, and framed in your home — not only this year, but years from now.
The final setup details and sample images will be shared closer to the holiday booking season.
Who These Sessions Are For
Holiday sessions are perfect for children, siblings, babies, and families.
You can book a holiday session for:
One child
Siblings together
Immediate family
Baby’s first Christmas
Milestone age
Mommy and baby
Daddy and baby
Cousins, depending on session type and availability
Holiday sessions work best for immediate family and children. If you are looking for extended family photos or a larger group, please reach out ahead of time so we can discuss the best option.
What to Expect During Your Holiday Session
Holiday sessions are designed to be simple, fun, and relaxed. Children do not need to sit perfectly the whole time. I know how to work with little ones, and I always adjust based on their age, personality, and cooperation.
Some children are ready right away. Some need a few minutes to warm up. Some want to explore first. Some need a snack break or a cuddle from mom or dad. This is completely normal.
I guide the session gently and keep it moving so we can capture beautiful images without making children feel overwhelmed.
The goal is not perfection. The goal is to capture your child’s personality and your family’s connection in a beautiful holiday setting.
Session Style
Holiday sessions are usually short and sweet, which works well for children. The setup is ready before you arrive, and we focus on capturing a variety of images within your session time.
Depending on your package and your child’s cooperation, we may capture:
Individual child portraits
Sibling portraits
Family portraits
Close-up details
Smiling images
Candid moments
Holiday card style images
Sweet snuggles and connection
Every session is different because every child and family is different.
What to Wear for Holiday Pictures
Wardrobe makes a big difference in how your final images look. For holiday sessions, I recommend outfits that coordinate with the setup colors.
Great options usually include:
Cream
White
Beige
Soft brown
Gold
Deep green
Burgundy
Navy
Soft pink
Classic holiday red
Plaid accents
Knits and cozy textures
Velvet dresses
Simple sweaters
Dressy casual outfits
Try to avoid large logos, neon colors, busy characters, or very distracting patterns. The focus should stay on your child and family.
For siblings and family photos, outfits do not need to match exactly, but they should coordinate. Soft, simple colors usually photograph beautifully and give the images a polished look.
Once the 2026 holiday setup is announced, I can give more specific wardrobe suggestions based on the colors.
Baby’s First Christmas Photos
Baby’s first Christmas is such a special milestone. Whether your baby is a newborn, sitter, crawler, or almost one, holiday photos are a beautiful way to remember their first holiday season.
For babies, I keep the session gentle and age-appropriate. Some babies sit and smile, some need support, and some are happiest being held. All of that is okay.
Baby’s first Christmas photos can include sweet baby portraits, family photos, sibling images, and cozy holiday details. These images are perfect for cards, gifts, and keepsakes.
Holiday Family Photos
Holiday family photos are a wonderful way to update your yearly family portraits. Life gets busy, and sometimes the holiday season is the perfect reminder to pause and capture everyone together.
Family holiday sessions can include a few simple family portraits along with children’s images. These photos are perfect for holiday cards, framed gifts, and yearly memories.
I always guide posing so you do not have to worry about what to do. I help with where to stand, how to hold children, where to look, and how to create natural connection.
Holiday Sessions for Siblings
Sibling holiday photos are always special. Whether your children are best friends, full of energy, shy, silly, or need a little extra patience, I work with them to capture sweet moments together.
Not every sibling photo needs to be perfectly posed. Sometimes the sweetest images are hugs, giggles, hand-holding, or the little in-between moments.
I always try to capture both individual photos and sibling images when possible.
Booking Information
Holiday sessions are limited and usually book quickly. Because these sessions are seasonal, dates are only available during a specific time period.
To book your holiday session, a deposit is required to reserve your date and time. Your spot is not held until the deposit is received.
The remaining balance is due the day before the session.
After booking, you will receive session details, including what to expect, what to wear, and how to prepare your children.
Because holiday sessions are very popular, I recommend booking early, especially if you need images back in time for holiday cards.
Gallery and Image Selection
After your session, you will receive a gallery to choose your favorite images based on your package.
You will have the option to purchase additional images or upgrade if you fall in love with more photos. Many families love having extra images, especially when there are several beautiful expressions, sibling combinations, and family portraits.
Final images are professionally edited and delivered digitally.
When to Book for Holiday Cards
If you want to use your photos for holiday cards, it is best to book early in the season. Editing and delivery take time, and card companies also need time for printing and shipping.
Booking early gives you more flexibility and less stress.
Holiday sessions later in the season are still beautiful, but they may be better for keepsakes, gifts, and memories rather than printed cards if your deadline is very close.
A Stress-Free Holiday Photo Experience
The holiday season can be busy, and I know parents already have so much to plan. My goal is to make your holiday photo session as easy as possible.
The setup is ready for you. The studio is prepared. I guide the posing. I help with children. I capture the moments. You just need to arrive ready to enjoy the experience.
Children do not need to be perfect. They just need to be themselves.
Some of my favorite photos happen when kids are laughing, cuddling, exploring, or showing their real personalities. Those are the memories parents usually love most.

Why Families Book Holiday Sessions Every Year
Holiday sessions become a tradition for many families because they capture something meaningful each year.
Children grow so quickly. The toddler who did not want to sit one year may be smiling big the next. The baby who needed to be held will soon be running around the studio. The siblings who were tiny last year will look completely different this year.
These photos tell the story of your family year by year.
They are also a beautiful way to celebrate the season, send love to family and friends, and create memories that feel warm and personal.
Reserve Your 2026 Holiday Session
