We always love getting the chance to photograph families we’ve worked with before, so spending time with Ali, AJ, Sophia, Emerson, and Atlas again was such a joy! This time, we met up at the always-beautiful Christianson’s Nursery in Mount Vernon, a location that never disappoints—especially during the holiday season.


Despite the chilly weather, the Berglins brought so much warmth and energy to their session. The kids looked adorable in matching PJs and rubber boots, embracing the festive spirit while running around and playing together. Their joy was contagious, and watching them all cuddle up on a sled was one of those sweet moments we love to capture.


Christianson’s Nursery is one of our favorite places to shoot, and for good reason. The combination of indoor and outdoor spaces, gorgeous natural light, and year-round greenery makes every session here feel magical. The nursery’s festive decor added an extra cozy touch, making this the perfect backdrop for a festive winter family session.


We love seeing families grow and evolve, and the Berglins are such a perfect example of that. Having had the chance to photograph them last year, we loved getting to document all the kids growing up and changing. The energy, love, and laughter they bring to every session make our job easy, and we’re so happy to capture these special moments for them.


If you’re looking for a gorgeous location for your next family session, Christianson’s Nursery is a gem no matter the time of year. Whether it’s the lush greenery, the natural light, or the cozy, intimate feel of the space, it’s the kind of setting that lets families be themselves—and that’s exactly what makes for the best photos.
