Happy Holidays

Sometimes a photo shoot requires Christmas in October.

By Ken Gutmaker

This image was shot for a “cover try.” Oddly enough, it was during a late-October California heatwave. We shot late afternoon into early evening, waiting for the light to fade and the house to glow. The most difficult part of this shoot was finding Christmas plants that early in the season.
