This holiday, let your joy be captured on real film.

Holga Holidays are slow, all-film sessions designed to gather the light, movement, and wonder of your season — and preserve it in formats that feel like memory.

Less posing. More remembering.
A warm invitation to pause, feel, and be seen.

 
“Loreal has such a creative eye. She sees things, parts of my family that we so often overlook. Creating a relaxed, non-posed environment is her superpower. It feels natural, slow, and easy to be photographed by her. Thank you Loreal, for always delivering beautiful photos that will be forever cherished!”
— The Dad of a Past Holga Holiday Session

What’s Included – The Experience

In one gentle session, you’ll receive a full, handcrafted visual story of your holidays—captured entirely on real film.

Your session includes:

  • One roll of Holga medium format film
    (soft, dreamy, nostalgic blur)

  • One roll of 35mm film
    (for candid, full-frame storytelling)

  • A 30–45 second Super 8 highlight film
    (like a vintage home movie flickering with magic)

  • Up to an hour of unhurried documentation

  • Hand-developed scans + digital delivery

Price: $575 (all-inclusive)

There are no additional decisions to make. Everything you need to remember this season is already included.

A family sits on the floor of a living room, celebrating Christmas. The woman and man, both smiling and touching foreheads, hold a baby between them. The room is decorated with holiday decor including wreaths, nutcracker figurines, stockings, and Christmas-themed pillows.

Why film?

Film invites presence — not perfection.
It doesn’t rush. It remembers.

And when your images arrive, weeks later,
it feels like unwrapping the season all over again.

A quiet kind of magic.
A gift to your future self.
