At The Pod Photography, we believe that the holidays have a certain glow to them that isn’t just from twinkle lights strung up on the tree. It’s found in the laughter between siblings, or the way parents look at their kids while tucking them in the night before Santa Claus comes down the chimney. It’s in leaving a plate of cookies on the table and gathering or a meal with friends and loved ones.
It’s these small moments of love, seemingly gift wrapped in reds, greens, and golds, that make family life during the holiday season so beautiful.
At The Pod Photography Los Angeles, that’s what we capture. Every year, families, couples, and even entire office teams (including our own) come through our doors to create photos that go far beyond a “holiday card moment.” Our sessions are about presence, about holding still for a second in the middle of your very full life and savoring the now. A little slice of holiday magic before it slips through your fingers amidst the usual hustle and bustle.
The Art of a Set That Feels Like Home
This holiday season, The Pod Photography’s design team dreamed up two backdrops that tell completely different stories, both timeless, both cinematic, both absolutely gorgeous and waiting for you.
The Cozy Christmas Set feels like being wrapped in a soft blanket on a Sunday morning in front of a crackling fire. There’s a hint of pine, the soft glimmer of gold and linen ornaments, and just enough magic in the air to make everyone smile. It’s an ideal space for little ones to play, couples to steal a kiss (we can provide the mistletoe), and families to laugh their way through a photoshoot that never feels stiff or staged.
Then there’s The Classic Beige Background, all about light, balance, and simplicity. With its neutral palette and modern texture, it creates a studio look that’s effortlessly sophisticated. Families love it for its versatility, from playful sibling portraits to striking editorial style team shots, it works with every tone and personality. The perfect holiday card backdrop.
For Families, Teams, and Everyone Who Calls L.A. Home
At The Pod Photography, we’ve photographed just about every kind of “family” you can imagine, parents and kids, best friends, grandparents and grandbabies, business partners, and teams that feel like family. Our Los Angeles clients trust The Pod Photography not only for our artistry, but because we know how to make people feel natural in front of the camera.
There’s no pressure to perform. We talk, we laugh, we play, and we catch the in-between moments that end up becoming everyone’s favorites.
Every set is handcrafted in our studio, designed to photograph beautifully while feeling completely alive, warm light, real laughter, soft textures, and colors that flatter every skin tone. When you walk into The Pod Photography studio, you don’t just see a backdrop, you step into a story you’ll want to remember.
