1st PHOTO attempt for Holiday card

So, with a crawling/moving almost 8 month old...this was a lot of work. I tried to put him in the box and hold the menorah, but he totally freaked out - so that didn't work.

I don't think I am happy with these pictures....I have a small wall in my home that I used and hung a table cloth.

Does it seem too busy? PLEASE...any advice will help.
DS is napping right now and I don't want to remove any props until I get it right.....this was way too much work! Chat Icon

Honestly, its a bit busy- your gorgeous son gets a bit lost in all that stuff. What about a white background?

I just went through this myself so I know how tough it is! Chat Icon

I do think the background is busy on its own and everything else in the pictures make it look a bit cluttered. But I do think the last one would be great on a card!

I like the 3rd and 4th ones. He's so cute lol. My DD was 2.5 months for her 1st Christmas so for our cards, I laid her on her belly in a white onesie on a red/green plaid blanket and called it a day! lol.

Maybe try a close up of him that has part of the tree and part of the menorah in it, people will know what they are, but I'm a "less is more" person :)

The backround is TOOooo busy and the snowmen are sideways. Sorry, just being honest. I agree with the AP, your beautiful son is lost!Chat Icon
