Experience the magic of Santa’s Workshop! Book your session for a fun, festive holiday experience. Limited spots available
Session are $199 for 20 min and you receive access to a viewing web gallery and you choose your 8 high resolution digitals included in the session fee. You can do all images of the Santa Workshop or split the time between Santa’s Workshop and the second set “Peaceful Twinkle Tree”.
Santa’s Workshop is an inspiring and attractive setting that combines fun and interactivity. For the younger kids, there will be books and building blocks and a wooden tool box to spark their creativity, while the older ones can enjoy craft activities and ornament painting. The style of Santa’s workshop is designed to be dark and moody, creating a unique ambiance. During the photography session, I will capture your children in a very natural way as they create their Christmas craft, avoiding the typical forced smiles and “look at the camera” poses. By photographing them authentically, the images will showcase their true character and personality, resulting in memorable and genuine moments captured for you to cherish.
If you have PJ’s, bring them along!
The Peaceful Twinkle Tree is an inspiring and attractive setting, ideal for the entire family. The photography style is classic, vibrant, and exudes a festive charm. This formal setup captures timeless moments and creates a warm and inviting atmosphere that is perfect for creating cherished family memories. The peaceful ambiance of the Twinkle Tree is sure to evoke a sense of serenity and joy, making it an ideal backdrop for capturing beautiful family moments in a traditional and elegant way.

Session Tips
✔️ Arrive early! 10 minutes early should be plenty. This way you’re not stressing out and you can relax in the parking lot for a few minutes
✔️ Plan your children’s sleep for that day if your session is during their sleep time.
✔️ Feed your children before the session to ensure they’re full and happy. Arrive a little earlier and do this in the car if needed.
✔️ Clean your children’s faces (eyes, nose, mouth), do your best, we don’t want any stragglers!
✔️Remove all hair ties or kids watches before the shoot to ensure no marks are there. I cannot edit out hair ties or watches.
✔️ Outfits must fit properly, be cleaned and ironed. No bright colours, no pure white or black. You don’t necessarily need to be all matching in identical outfits. Mix it up a little with textures too but stick to your color palette.
❌ No street shows. Bring clean shoes.
❌ Please, no eating in studio. Bring any supplies for your children to use after the session (snacks, treats, drinks, etc)
PARENTS
There is no pressure on your children to perform at the session, natural shots are always best and I like to shoot in a fun, relaxed and easy manner so there is no pressure on them to be perfect or looking at the camera with big perfect smiles in every shot. Please do not ask your child to smile, it will be a fake smile with squinting eyes.
✔️ It is critical you supervise your children to ensure they don’t damage any props on the day. Please note, other clients who would be left disappointed if something were to break!
✔️ As it is a 20 minute session you can do a quick outfit change into PJ’s for the workshop session (you have to be very quick)!
HOW TO PREPARE
Location – I will provide my address upon booking (It is a house, but you are in the right place!) The setup is in my basement. Please plan ahead of time and use Google Maps to determine how long it may take to arrive at the studio. Also take into consideration any traffic that may affect travel time before your Christmas mini session.
Arrive on time – Your assistance with arriving on time is so important for a successful day. When you arrive I will ask that you wait outside while other families are being photographed, purely as other clients get distracted. If you are late, I am unable to make up time, unfortunately.
