I don't celebrate Christmas, and so it only made sense to me that I tackled this one day brief from my own perspective.

I called this project "Closed for Christmas"

It's oh so easy to capture the noise, colour and Christmas ambience inside any family home, but step outside and the streets are dead and empty and all the local businesses are closed for one day only, which created this almost surreal atmosphere.
