The holiday season has a way of slowing things down just enough to notice the little things. The sparkle in a child’s eyes. The tiny mittened hand. The way a giggle fills a room. If you are looking for holiday portraits for your little ones, my Santa Experience is built to hold onto those moments your family will treasure for years to come.
One Day Only
This year, I am offering one day with Santa using the warm studio, festive and simple, with the major focus on your kids.
Santa Petite Session, November 14th
Instead of the rush of a busy mall visit, kids get to meet Santa in a slow, comfortable setting where they can take their time and simply be themselves.
There is no pressure for stiff poses or perfect smiles here. Santa and I gently guide each child so the session feels playful and natural. Every child shows up differently. Some ease in with quiet curiosity and lean in close to share their wishes in a soft voice. Others bring their full energy from the moment they walk in, offering a shy smile or studying him with wide eyes. Both are exactly right, and these small, unscripted moments are what make the portraits feel true to who your child is right now.
Goodie Bag Provided
I will be sending your kids home with milk and cookies. (Or a juice box if allergic to dairy).
A Keepsake to Remember the Season
This year, I am offering a handmade keepsake ornament as an optional add on. It is a small, lasting way to hold onto this season, something you can hang on your tree year after year.
If you would like to order one, please let me know by Black Friday, November 27th.
What Parents Are Saying
It is always such a joy to hear from families after a session. Here are a few reflections from parents who joined me last year.
“Natalie was super great to work with! Her playful style helped my little one have fun with the camera and capture such cute pictures!” – Katie S.
“We loved working with Natalie! She was kind, fun, and super patient with our three rambunctious kiddos. It’s hard to get small humans looking at the camera at the same time, while also smiling, but Natalie stuck with it until we got the shot! We were elated with the final gallery.” – Jennifer B.
“Upon arriving for our kids’ Santa session with Natalie, we were welcomed with genuine warmth and holiday cheer. The room was decorated beautifully, every detail thoughtfully arranged. And then there he was, the big guy himself. Santa gave our children a friendly wave, and their faces lit up, instantly ready for portraits with Old St. Nick. They laughed, they posed, and most importantly, they had fun, and so did we, watching from the sidelines. The session was smooth and warm from start to finish. Afterward, the kids grabbed milk and cookies while we wrapped up a few details with Natalie. If you are wondering who to choose for your Santa portraits this year, choose Natalie.” – Don & Jessica J.
Stories like these are why I love this work. Portraits that are playful, honest, and full of who your children are right now.
More Than Just Portraits
Childhood moves fast, and every stage carries its own weight. Families often tell me these sessions feel like more than a portrait session. They are a pause in the middle of a busy season, a chance to watch your child explore and simply enjoy the magic while I do the rest.
It is the small things, like the way your child tilts their head, an unplanned laugh, a burst of play, that make a session worth remembering.
Save the Date
The Santa Petite Session will be held on November 14th. Spots are limited for both days, so if you would like to reserve a time for your kids, I would love to hear from you.
Let’s Talk
I would love to hear from you. What part of this resonates with you most? Or maybe there is a holiday tradition of your own that you love sharing with your children.
