Is there anything better than cozy sweaters, holiday vibes, and dogs in matching outfits? (Spoiler: nope. There’s not.)
The holiday season is all about warmth, togetherness, and those unforgettable moments with the people — and pets — you love most. This year, I had the absolute joy of photographing a wonderful couple and their two adorable pups, Nova and Honey, during a festive holiday photo session at Hemenway Park in Boulder City, Nevada.
Why Holiday Pet & Family Photography Is So Special in Boulder City
Boulder City offers a beautiful, natural backdrop for family and pet photography — especially during the winter months when the light is soft and golden, and the desert landscape adds a unique charm. One of the park’s coolest features is the local wildlife, including the iconic Nevada bighorn sheep that roam nearby. Though we kept a safe distance, the presence of these majestic animals added a magical touch to the session.
Matching Sweaters & Holiday Vibes: A Picture-Perfect Combo
Nothing says holiday cheer quite like matching sweaters! Nova and Honey were decked out in cozy holiday knits, perfectly complementing their humans and the festive spirit of the day. The whole session felt warm, relaxed, and joyful — just what you want in your seasonal family photos.
Whether you’re searching for holiday pet photography in Boulder City or fun and natural family portraits in the Southern Nevada area, this session is a great example of how simple and beautiful your own photos can be.
Why You Don’t Need a Big Production for Amazing Family Photos
One of the biggest misconceptions about family or pet photo sessions is that they require a lot of planning, props, or wardrobe changes. But often, the best pictures come from authentic moments in comfortable settings. At Hemenway Park, we embraced the natural environment, joyful expressions, and the loving bond between this family and their pups.
