Holiday Photo Day in the Barn: Family Edition

*** Signup Times Available Soon – Check Back Tomorrow! ***
Capture your own holiday magic in our beautifully decorated historic barn! This special event is designed exclusively for families looking to take their own festive seasonal photos.*
What’s Included:
• 20 Minutes of Private Barn Access: Enjoy dedicated time inside our beautifully styled holiday setup, featuring a grand Christmas tree, mini trees, twinkling lights, wrapped packages, cozy pillows, warm blankets, and an old-fashioned holiday sleigh.
• Complimentary Tripod: A handy phone tripod will be ready and waiting on-site to help you get everyone into the frame.
• Garden & Outdoor Access: Your booking includes one parking space and an open invitation to explore our gorgeous gardens. You are welcome to arrive early or stay after your barn session to stroll the grounds and snap more outdoor photos!
Important Details for a Smooth Visit:
• Timing matters: To ensure every family gets their full time on set, barn access is strictly limited to your designated 20-minute window. We are unable to extend sessions for late arrivals, so please plan to arrive a few minutes early.
• DIY photography only: This event is a self-guided, “bring-your-own-camera” experience. A professional photographer is not included, and these specific time slots are reserved strictly for family casual photography (no commercial or hired professional photographers, please).*
• Cozy and clean spaces: To keep the set pristine and allergy-friendly for all of our visiting families, pets are not permitted inside the barn or on the grounds.
*Professional Photographers and those using Professional Photographers, please contact sycamorehillgardenevents@gmail.com to schedule a date and time to use our holiday setup.
