Holiday "Petite" Day in The Life session
Let me come to your home and capture the magical time you spend with your family decorating the Christmas tree. It's one of the most colorful, fun, and joyful moments of the year, and it’s worth preserving in an album to look back on. Plus, it's the perfect way to see just how quickly your little ones are growing year after year.
This is a special version of my Day in The Life session—a "Petite Christmas session" that lasts one hour. While it’s not exactly "petite," it’s the shortest documentary session I offer during weekends, made just for this special occasion.
Let’s capture the laughter, the chaos, and all the warmth that makes your family’s holiday unique!
S Family
A delightful Christmas tree decoration session with three siblings filled the room with laughter and cheer! The big brother and sister took their tasks seriously, making sure everything looked perfect, while the little sister added her playful spirit, creating a charming little mess. The vibrant colors and joyful atmosphere made for a truly unforgettable festive experience!

The Christmas tree decoration session kicked off with a playful little tussle, setting the tone for a colorful and joyful experience! The tree was filled with fun and quirky ornaments hidden among the branches, adding to the festive spirit. I absolutely love how magical holiday sessions like this can be!

J Family
A sweet family, their cherished animals, and all the perfect ingredients for a heartwarming holiday session. Picture decorating the Christmas tree, enjoying a board game by the cozy fireplace, and baking Christmas cookies together. In just one hour, there’s so much joy and togetherness to capture. Every smile, every little gesture, and every detail becomes a treasured part of the memories we create during this special season.

H Family
Christmas comes every year, but each Christmas is unique. How many times can we capture your adorable baby, wearing nothing but a diaper, in front of the Christmas tree? Even if they can’t help with the decorating just yet, they’ll still have so much fun playing with the ornaments and exploring their surroundings. Don’t miss this special moment – it's a memory you’ll cherish forever!

Your Houston christmas photographer
Personally, the moment I cherish capturing most during Christmas is when little ones prepare decorations. Whether it's a gingerbread house or handmade ornaments, I love witnessing their creativity. The focused expressions on their faces and their tiny hands working hard to create the perfect decorations for the tree are truly special. The handmade ornaments made by my children are my absolute favorites!

HOUSTON, TX
Through multiple photo-shoots in different set ups, from the home documentary style to an outdoor bluebonnet session, to a studio-style session, Nao was able to capture the magic of each moment in the different atmosphere.
Looking back at the pictures, for some taken years ago, is a real time travel that recreates the feelings of that perfect so un-perfect moment in our messy life. A good reminder to enjoy the present that Nao perfectly bottled up in a time capsule for the future.
I highly recommend Nao, she was able to make herself part of our environment, disappearing to be able to capture genuine moments of everyday life. She was also able to kindly guide us during the outdoor sessions, to make the experience natural, and recreate that “at-home” feeling.
Her artistic eye and the quality of the work gave us timeless pieces to proudly share with family and expose at home for years to come. We loved it!

I highly recommend Nao for her documentary photography. Besides being incredibly friendly and approachable, she truly knows how to adapt to the needs of families, capturing key moments in family life. The expressions, gestures, and poses are beautifully enhanced. Moreover, her professionalism allows her to be present without being intrusive, making both children and adults feel at ease. The memories she captures for us are priceless. She has an eye for detail; nothing is left to chance, and the results are always guaranteed.
I strongly encourage you to work with Nao, as she will provide you with photos that not only reflect who you are but also elevate the moments you cherish. I've enlarged and framed several of her photos, which are always admired by our family and friends. Not to mention the personalized calendars that were such a hit with the grandparents!

We experienced 3 family photo sessions with Nao in France : Christmas , Windows and Lockdown. The different sessions took place at home in real life.
Christmas session was the first time with Nao, it was an amazing experience. My 3 children were so excited to open boxes with decorations and to put them on the Christmas tree. Nao took photos every moment and we saw the different emotions. Nao never stopped taking photos so we got many photos and I realized a beautiful Christmas book and greeting cards.
Nao is very patient with children , it’s just like she is invisible but she always knows how to take the best picture, to capture the best emotion, to catch the best expression.
Nao is very respectful of your private life and your image rights. She is very professional.
Her work is very serious and she sends you the pictures quickly.
Good job Nao ! 🤩 📸 😍

Nao captured our hectic life in such a beautifully relaxed way.
My three children interacting just as they always do, my little boy beaming happily on my back etc.

Notified at the last minute for a maternity photo session, Nao was incredibly responsive and attentive. She made us feel at ease right away, offering clear and simple instructions, always with a smile! We had such a great time, and the photos turned out absolutely stunning!
After the amazing experience with our maternity photos, we reached out to Nao again to capture our daughter's first birthday. Once again, we are thrilled with the family photos she took. Beautiful, heartfelt moments of life were captured with such talent, leaving us with precious memories to cherish forever!
