Elevated BYOC Christmas Mini Photo Sessions — Bring Your Own Camera
Friday, December 5th - Sunday, December 7th, 2025
at Bits & Blooms Flower Farm in Franklinville, NJ
Capture your own holiday photos in a beautifully styled, relaxed setting.
This year’s scene features an antique charcoal tufted couch, a simple lit pine tree, warm string lights, and a neutral chunky-knit throw — creating an elevated Christmas look that still feels cozy, natural, and budget-friendly.
This is a BYOC (Bring Your Own Camera) experience. You shoot your own photos, and I’ll be there to help gently guide posing, as-needed.
For families taking each others photos, please read the details in each dropdown!
Each 20-minute session includes up to 6 people. If a second family is coming with you (which is totally fine!), you’ll need to book two back to back sessions to accommodate your party.
Please read all of our Additional Info sections, below, and all FAQs prior to booking your preferred day and time.

Mini Photo Session FAQs
What does BYOC mean?
BYOC stands for Bring Your Own Camera. You use your own camera or smartphone to take your photos. I provide the styled holiday scene and gentle posing tips if you want them.
How long is each session?
Each family gets 20 minutes in the styled setup. Please arrive 5 minutes early so we stay on schedule.
Where is the session located?
The minis take place at our home and flower farm, Bits & Blooms Flower Farm in Franklinville, NJ. We do not permit walk-ins or unscheduled visits. Once you have purchased your sessions, parking details and more information on your session will be emailed after booking.
What if the weather is bad?
If any days/times during the weekend of Friday, December 5th through Sunday, December 7th look to be too rainy or unsafe, sessions will move to the rain date the following weekend: Friday, December 12th through Sunday, December 14th. All families will be notified 24–36 hours before.
Can I bring my pets?
While we love animals, we are a working farm and do not permit outside animals on the property. Thank you for respecting our home and boundaries.
Can extended family join?
One booking per family. If extended family members want to join (grandparents, cousins, siblings), please book two back-to-back time slots. Each session accommodates enough time for a family of up to 6 people, and we need to reset our space in between each 20-minute session.
Do you take any photos for us?
This is a BYOC session, meaning you take the photos. However, we will have a tripod setup for you and can offer gentle guidance as-needed.
What should we bring?
Bring your camera and/or phone, snacks for kids, and warm layers. No outside props, please.
What's your refund policy?
Sessions are non-refundable but may be transferred to another family. Due to the limited number of spots, rescheduling isn’t guaranteed. Cancellations or no-shows are non-refundable.
Will the scene look exactly like the preview photo?
Yes — the session includes an antique gray tufted couch, a simple lit pine tree, warm string lights, and a neutral chunky-knit throw for a clean, elevated Christmas look.
A Look Back — Christmas Minis 2024
Last year’s BYOC Christmas Mini Sessions were full of genuine smiles, giggles, and relaxed family moments.
Parents told us over and over again that it was the first time they actually enjoyed taking holiday pictures — no pressure, no rush, just real memories being made.
Here are a few sample moments from 2024 to give you a feel for the experience:
Last year was truly special. This year, each family gets a cozy, elevated holiday backdrop — and the freedom to photograph the moment exactly how they want to remember it. Whether you come with your iPhone or a DSLR, the setup does half the work for you.
If you joined us in 2024, you already know how magical and easy these sessions feel. If this is your first year… you’re in for a treat. If you're looking for a budget-friendly, family photographer alternative to do your annual family photos in South Jersey, this is IT!
