Ho! Ho! Ho! (said in my most sarcastic voice). No, seriously. I do love the holidays—watching “Love Actually” and “The Holiday” on repeat. Chasing down the first Christmas tree to hit the lot in L.A. the day after Thanksgiving. Making my husband take the long way home every time we go anywhere so we can look at the lights. What I do not love is trying to come up with gift ideas for people we see once a year. Who’s with me? You want to be thoughtful, affordable, but also mind-blowing—like, the best gift they have ever received! (Or, is that just me, the relentless perfectionist?). I hope these will give you some gift ideas for people who have everything. Happy almost Holidays!

 

A SESSION WITH FLYTOGRAPHER 

$250 (gift cards start at $50)

This is a service that allows you to hire a vacation photographer in 200+ cities worldwide. I was lucky enough to win a session in London from a friend’s blog, and while I was skeptical at first because of the price and time limit, I was blown away. I will definitely do this again on our next big trip. We got 22 photos with 10 different setups all in a 30-minute session!  This link will give you $25 off your first session: http://flytog.co/mQdraSW
