Are you looking for holiday photo poses? Here are a few holiday poses you, your best friend, or your family can try for your upcoming photo shoot.

If you’re planning on family photo shoot or best friend photo shoot this holiday season, there are a lot of things you can do. You can visit a Christmas tree farm, rent a local photo studio, or even set up a photo shoot at home. Whether your plan is to meet a photographer at a designated location or have a photographer come to your home to take photos for your Christmas card, this blog post is for you.

Here are 6 Holiday Photo Poses for Your Christmas Cards:

Pose Idea 1: Sit in front of the fireplace

If you’re looking for an easy family holiday photo pose, I would recommend sitting in front of the fireplace.

Posing tip: If you aren’t sure what to do with your hands, I would recommend holding festive Christmas mugs. You can also hold your beanie.

Another posing idea is to prop yourself up on your elbows in front of your fireplace. You can make your living room or fireplace room more festive as well by adding a soft white blanket and lots of Christmas ornaments to fill the frame.

Pose Idea 2: Lean your head against your friend’s shoulder

If you’re looking for an easy pose with your best friend, you can rest your head on their shoulder.

Pose Idea 5: Bake Christmas cookies

If you want a fun at-home photo shoot for your Christmas card, I recommend setting up baking Christmas cookies in your kitchen. Chances are, you already have a majority of what you need at home for this photo shoot. If you’re looking to add festive touches, I recommend dressing up in festive holiday sweaters and adding in baking holiday themed baking tools.

Pose Idea 6: Sit in the trunk of your SUV or truck

If you have a SUV or truck at home, you can decorate the back of your trunk with blankets, pillows, and faux Christmas presents. While this at-home holiday set up may seem simple, the photos will turn out cute. For holiday photo poses, your best friends or family can sit on the back of the trunk or lean against it.
