Christmas Eve

During the Christmas Eve, I spent time with the side of the family I don’t see very often. I go to experience my first Christmas Eve party while photographing the experience of the people there. I’ve never cared much for the holiday, but I do like to spend time with the family, especially because I’m not with them all the time.

Meanwhile, the adults were outside partying. The two relatives are having fun, one enjoying a drink and the other dancing.
