santa and holiday portraits
Modern. Simple. Holiday Portraits
I’m excited for our Santa and Holiday Mini Session event this year! Begin the season with a visit with Santa to tell him your Christmas wishes. Or if visiting with Santa is a bit too much for your little ones, book one of my Holiday sessions. I have two options for holiday pictures without Santa—studio minis for your kiddos or family minis outdoors at a tree farm in Draper. You’ll receive addresses as you book your session.
We’ll spend time taking pictures of your kids individually and then all together. Your created images make perfect family gifts and will be cherished for years to come.

Please be aware if you signed up for a session with or WITHOUT Santa—I would hate to have any disappointed kiddos!
We are going to be taking precautions for COVID this year to help your kids and Santa stay healthy. We are limiting the number of sessions we’re offering with larger gaps in between each session to allow time for sanitizing. We will also be adjusting our poses—we’re debating about not having kids sit on Santa’s lap and some other changes. With things constantly changing please simply be aware your visit with Santa may be different this year.

Have more questions?
Here are some more details about the session, how to prepare and what to expect…
Q: What should I dress my kids in?
Consider dressing your kids in their holiday best or cute Christmas sweaters. This is also a fun time for kids to wear their Christmas jammies.
Q: What type of pictures will you take?
We have wrapped presents, ornaments, Christmas books, a plate of cookies and jars of milk for kids to pose with Santa. For the Holiday pictures without Santa we have skates, wooden stumps, ornaments, pine cones, wrapped presents, wooden Christmas trees and a plate of cookies as modern yet simple props. We will take pictures of kids individually and all together. These details are all subject to change due to COVID.
Q: Can you take pictures of my whole family?
Sessions are typically reserved for kids, but I’m more than happy to do one family pose within the 15 minutes.
Q: Can I bring my pet to my session?
We ask that you don’t bring pets to our Holiday and Santa event. We will have a very full schedule with many children coming and going and would like to avoid any allergy issues as well as any kids who are scared of animals. Many kids are already fearful to get their pictures taken so throw Santa and animals in the mix and we may have meltdown city on our hands. I’d love to set up a separate session with your pets so check out my pricing page for more details.
Q: When will I receive my images?
You’ll receive an email with a link to your gallery two weeks after your session.
Q: Do you offer Christmas cards?
In my online gallery there’s an option to design Christmas cards with a variety of designs. Even better, they’ll be shipped straight to your door.
Q: Can we bring cousins and friends to our session?
I’m more than happy to take pictures of cousins and friends together along with your children but I ask that you book and pay for two consecutive sessions to accommodate everyone.
Q: Can we have longer than 15 minutes to take our pictures?
Yes, but because these are extremely popular sessions I ask that you book and pay for two consecutive sessions so I can stay on schedule but still accommodate you.
Q: Can my child bring more than one outfit?
Each session is 15 minutes so we can do as much as you’d like in that time. The 15 minutes includes the time it takes to change outfits.
Q: What if I need to cancel or reschedule my session?
Cancelling forfeits your booking fee paid to book the session. Your booking fee can be credited towards a future session. Please do cancel if you have sick kids rather than just not showing up. Cancelling and rescheduling links are provided in your email notification when you initially booked your session.
