A Holiday Classic: Christmas Mini Sessions with a 1956 International Red Truck

the perfect christmas photo prop

​This Christmas season, I had the absolute pleasure of using a unique and nostalgic prop for my mini sessions—a stunning vintage 1956 International red truck. From the moment I laid eyes on it, I knew it was going to be a showstopper. This beautifully restored piece of history brought a timeless charm to every photo, making it the perfect backdrop for holiday memories.

​For the sessions, we adorned the truck with seasonal touches—fresh greenery, vintage props, and cozy details that perfectly complemented its character. The truck became more than just a backdrop; it became the centerpiece that tied the magic of the session together. Families snuggled close on the truck bed, kids peeked out the windows, and even a few furry friends joined in on the fun (as you can see from the adorable pup in the photo above!).

abit of nostalgia with charm

What I loved most was how the truck brought out genuine smiles and excitement from everyone. People couldn’t resist sharing a sweet moment in front of its timeless charm and enjoyed sitting in it too! The truck was more than just a prop—it became part of the story, adding an extra layer of nostalgia and joy to the photos.

​This year’s Christmas mini sessions were truly unforgettable, thanks in part to this beautiful vintage truck. It was a reminder of the magic of the holiday season, where old traditions and new memories come together in the most delightful ways.

a cherished keepsake

​To everyone who joined me for these sessions: thank you for making this year so special! I hope these photos become cherished keepsakes that bring you warmth and joy for years to come.
