Natural, storytelling Christmas photography in Leicestershire
Cosy knits, Christmas trees, gingerbread, little hands decorating the tree and families wrapped up together amongst the firs.
My 2026 Christmas Tree Farm Mini Sessions will take place at Gelsmoor Christmas Tree Farm, Gelsmoor Road, Coalville, Leicestershire LE67 8JF.
These relaxed, story-led Christmas sessions are perfect for families, children, siblings, couples and maternity — with gentle guidance where needed, but plenty of space for real connection, play and those beautifully imperfect little moments.

A little Christmas story amongst the trees
This year’s setup will be intentionally simple, warm and nostalgic.
Rather than creating a heavily staged Christmas set, I’ll let the beautiful tree farm do most of the work.
Imagine a wooden sledge tucked between the Christmas trees, soft neutral blankets, beautifully wrapped presents, a basket of gingerbread and cookies and simple decorations for little hands to hang on the trees.
Children might climb onto the sledge, decorate a tree, investigate the parcels, share a biscuit or curl up with Mum and Dad beneath a blanket.
And then we’ll move away from the setup too.
We can wander through the Christmas trees, hold hands, cuddle, play, carry little ones and simply let your family be together.
The aim isn't perfection.
It’s to create a little collection of Christmas memories that genuinely feel like you.
Stories lived, not staged.
The images shown are from previous Christmas Tree Farm sessions. This year’s set will be created especially for 2026 with the same natural, story-led feel.
Your gallery
Following your session, you'll receive a private online gallery containing around 30+ beautifully edited images.
Your £89 session includes your favourite 5 digital photographs, which you can choose after seeing the complete gallery.
If choosing only five proves impossible, you can upgrade to the full gallery for an additional £89.
There is absolutely no obligation to upgrade.
Who can book?
These Christmas photography sessions aren't just for little ones.
They are perfect for:
- Families
- Babies and children
- Siblings
- Couples
- Maternity
- Small family groups
Whether it's your baby's first Christmas, energetic toddlers exploring the trees, older siblings, or simply you and your favourite person, the session will be shaped around you.
Session times
Sessions will take place throughout Saturday 14th November during daylight hours.
When booking, let me know what sort of time works best for your family and I will always try to accommodate you.
Important weather information
Because these sessions take place outdoors, you must be available on both Saturday 14th and Saturday 21st November before booking.
Saturday 21st November is our reserve weather date.
If heavy rain or unsuitable conditions mean I need to postpone the sessions on the 14th, your booking will move to the corresponding session time on the 21st.
Please only book if you can attend both dates.
