BERNKASTEL-KUES CHRISTMAS MINI SESSIONS

Check out our Kaiserslautern family photography sessions for more sessions like these Bernkastel-Kues Christmas mini sessions in the area.

This was our 2nd day of shooting of the 4 total days that we did Christmas market mini sessions here. We initially only had one day that we listed when we originally announced our Christmas market mini sessions. We’d been able to do them the first year we were here but with covid the markets had been shut down the following year. Our initial Christmas market mini sessions we did in 2019 had some interest but nothing overwhelming. Between there not being any markets and people wanting to get out our post was swamped. After the chaos of the first day I had to add in another date for the popular spots. Bernkastel-Kues was one of the popular spots so I initially added one more day.

The first date we did 8 sessions for the day and with this added in date we scheduled another 5 here. The other Bernkastel-Kues mini sessions that were added after this one were due to Christmas markets being closed. The initial plan was to shoot at a variety of different markets to have more variety. Sadly due to covid restrictions I had to cancel and relocate Christmas market sessions to this location. It wasn’t all bad because I got very familiar with this location and it’s a beautiful German town. My first session when I got there was a beautiful family and we got to go through the market to start the day off right.

KAISERSLAUTERN CHRISTMAS MINI SESSIONS

The first sessions always had pros and cons to the photos. The pros were that not all the merchants were open and not all the displays were up or on. The advantage was that there were less people around to battle with. The second session was a mother with her daughter as the husband got sick. They had a blast and we got great photos despite being a member short. The next family session there were lots of laughs and one not so happy member of the family. You can’t always predict your children’s moods for photos but we still capture photos. After that session we had a family with their baby daughter for some photos through the village. After that we had a family of 4 with their 2 daughters and we wandered through the streets capturing more fun Christmas photos.

Our last Bernkastel-Kues Christmas mini session this day was a family of 4. It was great to have all these families come out and Bernkastel-Kues is a great spot to visit year around. It’s only an hour or so outside of the Kaiserslautern area so it’s definitely worth a trip. During the summer months you can check out the vineyards surrounding the town and walk along the river. If you’re looking to schedule a Bernkastel-Kues Christmas mini photography session we’ve left the area. We may however be planning trips back to the area so get in touch with us to talk schedule!
