The holiday season is all about sharing joy with the people who mean the most to you. Many families exchange presents, but not just any gift will do. You want to give something that is special, meaningful and one of a kind. The answer: a personalized photo calendar.

Use school pictures of all your children to create a keepsake calendar. Your children's photographs will add a smile to every month, making it the ideal gift for grandparents, godparents, aunts, uncles and more.

Décor

Of course it isn't the holidays without festive decor. No matter what you celebrate, there are photography decor options to brighten your home and get you in the holiday spirit.
