Christmas At Home

by Jennifer Edwardson

I could not love the photos that I included on this layout more !

Obviously, as a memory keeper, i am obsessed with taking as many pictures as I possibly can, but I really believe in having pro pics taken of our family at least once a year !!

Now that Emma and Alex are both in University and living away from home, I feel it that it’s more important than ever to make sure to capture us as a family as often as possible … and yes, that includes our dogs !!

I was thrilled when our photographer agreed to come to our house for the photo shoot. Our dogs are awesome BUT … they aren’t the easiest to manage off property for pictures (yes, we’ve tried before LOL) !! Being able to bring them out front of our house for a few snapshots and then let them back inside was brilliant … for sure the way to go for optimal memory making success !!

It isn’t a secret that I am a big fan of Simple Stories paper crafting product. Even though these photos were taken just a few days before Christmas, I wanted to use the Pet Shoppe Collection by Simple Stories to highlight Marshall, Wilma and Max !

I created a process video showing you all the steps I took to create a beautiful background for these pictures and you can WATCH IT HERE !!
