Holiday Collection
Christmas is often remembered for its biggest moments: the gifts, the lights, the laughter gathered around a tree.
This collection is about everything that happens just after.
A tangled strand of lights abandoned on the floor. A broken ornament that still hangs from the branch. Wrapping paper scattered across the room after the excitement has settled. A melting snowman. A forgotten ornament hook discovered weeks later. A tree returning quietly to the earth.
Each photograph captures the evidence of a celebration without ever showing the celebration itself. Together, they tell a story of anticipation, frustration, joy, memory, and renewal, reminding us that the holidays aren't defined only by the moments we plan for, but by the quiet traces they leave behind.
Created in the signature cinematic style of The Last Balloon, the Holiday Collection invites us to slow down and notice the beauty in ordinary endings. These are not images of Christmas. They are images of what Christmas leaves behind.
