The holiday season in Wisconsin is the perfect time to capture your family’s joy and togetherness through a professional photo session. At babbonis, we specialize in creating stunning family photos that preserve the magic of the holidays. We are passionate about discovering what is special and unique about your family and allowing that to shine through in each portrait. These portraits are cherished keepsakes that you can display all year long, which is most beautiful when the “post-holiday” blues come around! Many of our clients say their portraits are sweet reminders for them every day of the memories they have when the whole family is together. It’s something that can’t be replicated…but we try to in every portrait we take.
Why “Home for the Holidays”?
“Home for the Holidays” brings so many emotions to our souls… families gathered in the cozy warmth of their homes, laughter around the dinner table, exchanging gifts in coordinating PJs, or special holiday vacations that are sacred traditions. Whether it’s your childhood home, a charming cabin in the woods, or a one-bedroom apartment, the heart of the holiday season is where your family comes together.
It’s all about celebrating your family.
We believe that family is at the core of the holiday season. Family photos capture the essence of your unique bonds, preserving the moments of love and togetherness that make the holidays truly special. No matter if your family is spread out across the country or lives just down the street, there is something remarkable about getting everyone together over the holidays. Being able to document that with a portrait is even better.
Family Traditions. Captured.
All Wisconsin families have their own cherished holiday traditions, from decorating the tree to a white elephant gift exchange or preparing feasts together. Maybe your family chooses to cut down your own tree from the same farm year after year, or perhaps you all go and serve a meal to a family in need. Adding those family portraits to your holiday traditions is another wonderful way to celebrate the season, creating a keepsake that can be passed down through generations, preserving the lineage of your unique family tree.
Memories. Captured.
The holiday season is fleeting, but memories captured in family photos last a lifetime. These photos become treasured heirlooms, reminding you of the joy and love shared during this special time. We believe it’s an investment in your family!
Quality Family Time.
A family portrait session is a chance for your loved ones to come together, bond, and create beautiful moments. The shared experiences, laughter, and conversations during the session become cherished memories themselves. Many of our customers leave saying how fun their session was, and before long many feel like they’re part of our extended family too!

Tips for a Perfect Family Photo Session
To make the most of your family photo session, consider these tips:
Coordinate Outfits
Coordinate colors and styles to enhance the overall look of your family photos. You might want to match your home’s decor if you’re planning on displaying in a prominent location. Or maybe a holiday theme is what you’re going for! Many families choose a neutral pallet that flatters everyone and every room.
Personalize your session
Include sentimental items or family keepsakes in your portraits. If you have a special family tradition, incorporate that into your photos! And don’t forget your furry family members. They deserve to be included in your holiday session too!
Be Yourselves
The most beautiful family photos are ones where everyone is relaxed. Trust the process and the poses, and allow us to capture the genuine moments of love and connection in your family.
