Christmas is the best time of year to capture the holiday magic in a baby photoshoot. This is perfect for newborns, but you can really do a holiday photoshoot no matter your baby’s age!

Whether you are taking your photos at home or taking them to a professional photographer, it’s always good to have a cute outfit planned out for the photos.

1. Gingerbread Cookie

Some parchment paper, flour, and a cookie sheet is the perfect layout for this photoshoot. Honestly, this would be so easy to do DIY at home.

PRO TIP: Take DIY photo’s outdoors for better lighting. Even on a porch or under a shady tree would work! Morning and early evening are the best times to take photo’s.

Etsy has the cutest gingerbread outfits from baby to toddler HERE!

2. Christmas Sweaters

You can do ugly or cute Christmas sweaters for a cute and simple family photo!

Hannah Anderson and Etsy are the best places to shop for family matching holiday sweaters.

3. Vintage Christmas

Keep it simple with a classic or vintage style photo shoot. I love these rompers with simple patterns and ruffles!

Shop more old-fashioned holiday baby outfits!

4. Cozy Christmas Nap

This one is so simple and so precious. Just lay your sleeping baby on a sheet or solid background with an adorable plush and Christmas ornament, bell, or pinecone.

The Cuddle and Kind Plush shown in this image is perfect!

5. Classic Christmas Plaid

I love the classic christmas plaid look! There are so many cute plaid options on Amazon and Etsy!! (Honestly always shop Etsy if you want that handmade look!)

The background for this can be really basic. A fluffy white blanket and Christmas lights would work perfect for a DIY shoot at home.
