Last November, we had the best time adventuring around Penland Christmas Tree Farm with one of our best friends and amazing photographer, David Platt. We were on a mission to capture our first Christmas card picture and David did not disappoint. He captured our personalities so well and even a year later, looking at these pictures, I can remember the things we talked about and laughed about and the sweet time Luke and I had with these pictures. I cannot recommend enough setting aside a time each year to have professional pictures taken…not just for the pictures themselves, but for the time spent with your spouse/family and the memories you make!

Luke and I definitely do Christmas big and so annual Christmas cards were a definite for us!

This is the picture we used for the front of our card:

And this is the picture we used for the back…

Luke insisted we use it and so I promised we could put it on the back and have it as a smaller picture with our little note to all of our friends and family…but oh goodness, did it end up being the crowd pleaser… LOL.

And here are several more of our favorites 🙂
