You need a wide aperture and a relatively close subject distance.

Awesome shot! Like the idea behind it and the composition. Well done, dude.

Here's on that I did similar to that last night. She wasn't worn out, just having a blast removing the ornaments as we put them on

Thanks, man! I really wish I heard that more.

I love this one. My favorite part about the Christmas bokeh thing, is how artsy and graphic design looking lights can be when completely out of focus.
