A child only believes in the Magic of Santa for a little while...
Come and experience the magic of Christmas through your child's eyes!
This experience is not your typical sitting on Santa's lap at the mall, this is truly an experience that your children will never forget!!
Our santa experience is like nothing you have ever witnessed before. It combines a fully interactive experience with Santa himself along with Norman Rockwell inspired Christmas portraits.
The magic of Christmas comes alive as your child enters Santa's home. The magic is so real that your child will BELIEVE they are there!
The sound of Christmas music fills the air and the warm glow of the Christmas tree lights illuminate Santa's home that is filled with toys, treats, christmas trees and of course the big guy himself, creating a truly magical core memory that you child will never forget.
Discover why over 375 families have chosen our studio for this magical experience!

FAQ's and Important Details
What is a Sit and Snap Session?
This is a quick, 5 minute session with Santa. It's great for babies and older siblings under the age of 2. This is also for parents who only want a quick picture. While this is NOT an experience session, our goal is to get a few images for you to choose from in your gallery.
What is the difference between the Heirloom and Traditional Sessions?
First, the amount of time that we have set aside for your session. Heirloom sessions are approx. 30 minutes, while the traditional is 15 minutes. The Heirloom session is a full interactive session with Santa. Your child will be magically transported to Santa's very own living room and will participate in many magical activities to make your storybook/album complete. While the traditional session will include a few smaller activities and poses.
The Heirloom session is for the family who not only want Santa photos but who truly want to experience the magic of Santa versus the Traditional session where the main focus is for holiday pictures and a quick visit with Santa.
What if my child is under 4, and I still want her to participate in the Heirloom session?
Please reach out to me so we can discuss further. Some children are able at 3 or younger to follow directions and interact with the activities, others might not be able to. So if this is something you want to do give me a call and we can go over it all. If you then feel your child will participate you are more than welcome to sign up!
*Please note! Your child must be able to sit on their own for the Heirloom session, without assistance; otherwise they won't be able to participate in the activities planned with Santa.
