IT'S NEVER TO EARLY TO BE THINKING ABOUT CHRISTMAS!
I am so excited to start planning Weber Photography's 2023 Countdown to Christmas! This is a fun project where I can let some creative juices flow and celebrate one of my favorite holidays.
It began in 2022 when I thought things would slow down around the holidays. To avoid pestering my own children by taking way too many photos of them, I reached out to a handful of families asking them to allow me to feature their children in Countdown to Christmas posts on social media.
This year, I am opening up the opportunity to more families and hope you'll join me in this endeavor. You will receive a short family session in addition to the specialty photos taken for the countdown at a discounted session rate of $50. Your final gallery will include 10+ photos available for download upon delivery. I only ask that you do not share the photos specifically taken for the countdown until after Christmas.
Families must be available the first weekend in December for their photo session. You will receive a private link to signup for the time that works best for you on either Saturday, December 2nd or Sunday, December 3rd. A signed session agreement and the session fee of $50 will be due at the time of signup. The families chosen for this year's Countdown to Christmas will be notified by September 1, 2023. Signups must be completed by Friday, September 8th.
Please fill out the form below if you are interested in being featured in Weber Photography's 2023 Countdown to Christmas!
This form is designed for me to get to know you and your family a little better to see how I can piece together the days of the countdown. Even if you were featured last year, fill out the information below so I know you are interested in participating this year. Please complete it in full to be considered for this year's countdown.

FAQ
What is the Countdown to Christmas?
Weber Photography counted down the days to Christmas last year using photos that reimagined the 12 Days of Christmas song. It was a fun project so I am brining it back this year! Your photos will be featured on Facebook and Instagram as we count down to Christmas Day this December.
When Will Photos Be Taken?
Participants must be available the first weekend in December for photos. It will be a quick 20-minute session for photos specifically for the countdown and will also include a few full family photos.
What do we have to wear?
I will provide more specifics for the countdown photo outfits once you are given a day of the countdown. We will collaborate to find something already in your closet so you should not have to purchase anything special unless you want. For the family photos, you can wear whatever you like... Christmas jammies, casual, Sunday best, etc.
When will I be notified if our family has been chosen?
Families will be notified via email by September 1, 2023.
Will I still be considered if I was in last year's countdown?
YES!! I love working with people multiple times and would love to have you featured a second or even a third time.
