I had a rush of London vacation photography sessions towards the end of last year and\u00a0am excited\u00a0to share this festive one with you. This lovely American family were on holiday in London and wanted to get some Christmas family portraits taken. Then they were going to use their favourite image\u00a0for the family Christmas card.<\/p>\n

Festive London family photography<\/h2>\n

We decided to do the vacation photography session in Covent Garden, where the family were staying. Covent Garden<\/a> is one of my favourite areas of London anyway, but at Christmas it looks extra special. The\u00a0shops are always beautifully decorated, so I knew we would be spoilt for choice with backgrounds. And of course, there\u2019s always the huge Christmas tree in the Piazza, which just\u00a0had to be\u00a0in a few of the photos!<\/p>\n

Christmas Family Portraits with a hint of red!<\/h2>\n

As you\u2019ve probably noticed I love using colour in my photography. So\u00a0I was really pleased when I met up with the family to see the boy was wearing a fabulous\u00a0bright red top.\u00a0The girl also had a lovely colourful hat on, with one perfect red stripe. We took a huge range of Christmas Family Portraits using different colour backdrops. But I particularly like the ones where the backgrounds are also red. The restaurant with the red sleigh full of penguins, the red Christmas tree lights. The pub, the phones boxes and the baubles \u2013 they all worked\u00a0perfectly in\u00a0these family portraits.<\/p>\n

I enjoyed this festive London vacation photography session so much. It was such fun to spend an hour with this lovely family in one of my favourite London locations. And I was overjoyed to hear how happy they were with the photos too.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re coming to London on holiday and you\u2019d like to remember this special time with your very own set of professional family portraits, please do get in touch. Details of my London vacation photography can be found here London Vacation Photographer<\/a><\/p>\n
