If you are getting family or lo pictures done around the holidays, when are you doing it?

We never got newborn pics but agreed we would get some when she was a little older, so I plan to get then done before Christmas so we can have the photos for cards, though I don't want only holiday themed ones. I'm thinking I want a whole shoot, not just a mini session they might offer for the holidays. I found a photog I like so need to get back in touch with her soon I think!
