This year is extra special…
Nine years of creating Santa memories
A Santa who gives little ones time to warm up
No rushed, assembly-line experience
The same magic families come back for year after year
I’ve watched babies who once cried in Santa’s lap grow into big kids who run through the door ready to tell him everything on their Christmas list. These aren’t just Santa pictures anymore, they’re little pieces of their childhood.

Two Magical Sets to choose from
This year, Santa is bringing two completely different Christmas experiences to the studio. Choose the set that feels most like your family — cozy Christmas Eve magic or the timeless, traditional Santa portraits you know and love.
2026 set images coming soon!
The Night Before Christmas
A cozy Christmas bedroom inspired by the magic of Christmas Eve. Think snuggling with Santa, reading a story together, and capturing those sweet, nostalgic moments before he heads back to the North Pole.
Traditional Christmas
A timeless Christmas setting filled with all the classic Santa magic. Think wish lists, giggles, and those traditional Christmas portraits you’ll pull out year after year.

Santa sessions are for immediate family only.
If you’d like a photo with cousins, friends, or another family, you’ll need to book two sessions back to back.

6. Can we switch to a different Santa day if something comes up?
Unfortunately, session dates are locked in and cannot be swapped.
Santa keeps a tight schedule, and I carefully time sessions to stay on track.—so we’re unable to accommodate day or time changes once your spot is reserved.
The studio is in Smyrna, TN. Full address and directions will be sent in your prep email once you’re booked. Please allow time for parking and arriving a few minutes early.

Unfortunately, no pets are permitted at Santa sessions. With so many families and little ones coming through throughout the day, we have to be mindful of allergies, children who may be afraid of dogs, and keeping the sets clean and safe for everyone. We love your furry family members, but for Santa sessions, we ask that they stay home!
