If Kate were to ever start a rock band, I’d like to suggest “Kate & the Ugly Christmas Sweaters” as her band name. It has such a great ring to it, don’t you think?

When a family hires me for the holiday photos and asks if it’s ok for them to all wear completely tacky and sometimes inappropriate Christmas sweaters, you can be sure that I’m going to be 100% on board. And what started out as a relatively tame session with everyone posed nicely on the stairs (including the pets) in said sweaters, soon progressed into full-fledged, epic, family ridiculousness (my favourite kind!). Everyone’s imaginations were in full bloom, as you can surely tell. I think anyone who gets the Armstrongs’ family Christmas card this year will be in store for a mighty chuckle!

Thanks Kate and family for making this one of the most memorable holiday family photo shoots ever!
