who it’s for
Bring your people. I’ll handle the rest.
Families
Everyone in one frame, finally. Matching sweaters optional.
Couples
Your holiday card, or just a portrait of the two of you.
Kids & siblings
I give little ones room to be themselves. That is where the good frames come from.
Babies
First holiday portraits. The booking form lets you note a newborn so I can plan.
how it works
Three steps.
01
Book your time
Pick a date and time on my booking calendar. A $75 deposit holds your spot. The rest is due later.
02
Come to the studio
Fill out a short questionnaire so I know who is coming. Then we shoot on the holiday set and the white backdrop.
03
Get your photos
You receive 15 professionally edited digital images from your session.
where
A holiday photo studio close to home.
My studio is in Westlake Village, right off the 101. If you’re searching for Christmas family photos in Thousand Oaks, Agoura Hills, Calabasas, Oak Park, or Newbury Park, you’re a short drive away. It’s indoors, so the weather never cancels your holiday card.

What is included in the holiday mini session?
A 1 hour session in my Westlake Village studio, a festive holiday set plus a classic white backdrop, and 15 professionally edited digital images. The session is $250, with a $75 deposit at booking.
How long is the session?
One full hour. Enough time for little ones to warm up, a few outfit tweaks, and both setups without rushing.
Where is the studio?
31133 Via Colinas, Suite 104, Westlake Village, CA 91362. It is an easy drive from Thousand Oaks, Agoura Hills, Calabasas, Oak Park, and the rest of the Conejo Valley. Come about 10 minutes early so we can settle in. There is plenty of parking.
What should we wear?
Pick two or three colors and let everyone wear a version of them. Cream, red, green, plaid, and soft neutrals all look great on the holiday set and on white. Skip big logos and neon. Textures like knits and velvet photograph beautifully. Bring a second option for the kids just in case.
Can we bring kids, babies, or a pet?
Yes to kids and babies. The booking questionnaire asks for names and ages so I can plan the session around them. If you want to bring a pet, text me before you book so I can make sure the set works for them.
How many people can come?
The booking is for one 1 hour session for your group. Bringing a big crew, like grandparents and cousins? Text me at (818) 517-1416 first and I will tell you what fits on the set.
When should I book?
The holiday calendar is only open for a few weeks, so book early, especially if you want photos in time for cards. Right now the calendar runs from November 17 into early December. Open times are always live on the booking calendar.
Can I reschedule?
Through the booking system you can reschedule up to 3 days before your session and cancel up to 24 hours before. Life with kids happens, so text me if something comes up.
How do I book?
Tap any Book button on this page. It opens my booking calendar where you choose a date and time and pay the $75 deposit. Questions first? Call or text (818) 517-1416, or DM me on Instagram @talisamonet.
