I am so excited to announce our newest product being added to the Cloud 9 Holiday Gift Guide – our Christmas Portrait Memory Box.
Every year the weekend after Thanksgiving I bring out my Christmas decorations. In one tote I store framed 5×7 and 8×10 Christmas portraits of my kids from the past 12 years. This is my absolute favorite tote to unpack because as I unwrap each frame I am reminded of a Christmas memory that otherwise stays dormant in my mind. I laugh, I smile and sometimes shed a little tear at the baby girl who is now a pre-teen.
The love of unpacking that box and decorating my home during the holidays with photos of Christmas’s past is what inspired my search for another product that would have this same emotional effect and ability to store memories and stories of our families as they grow and change throughout the years.
The Christmas Memory Folio Box is this perfect product!!
Once purchased the box stays in your home. Then each year as you come to the studio for a Christmas portrait you choose one or two of your favorite images from the session to purchase as a 5×7 for the box. We add those images to the box that year and then year after year, you will fill your box with not only portraits, but also stories and memories of your children and family.
To me this is the ULTIMATE Christmas gift you can buy yourself.

The boxes are available in Red or Champagne and the lids can be customized for your family. Inside we can choose white or black mats and they house 20 matted 5×7 portraits plus a thumbdrive to store the matching digital negative.
The introductory price on the
Christmas Portrait Memory Box is $495.
If you would like to order yours in time to have for this Christmas Season … we need to get them ordered by November 5th. These are custom made boxes and are hand crafted in Ireland!
