SANTA will soon be here | Venus Texas Children Photographer

 SANTA is coming this SATURDAY NOVEMBER 19, 2022 and we can not wait!  This is always such a magical day and I love seeing all the boys and girls and their parents excitement!  They say we can even have a few snow flurries Saturday morning.  But, no worries, we have hot cocoa, a nice cozy studio, and a great SANTA.  So make plans now to attend this special session!

Specialty Photography has been photographing SANTA for over 10 years at the studio. What originally started as a better experience than the mall Santa has emerged into the interactive Santa Expirience it is today. We utilize the same SANTA each year, and many children return year after year to visit "The real SANTA".  Our beautifully designed sets and a variety of props give you a heirloom quality to each and every santa experience. In an individual session children get to talk with Santa, and participate in several interactive activities like checking Santa's nice list, reading a story, looking in Santa's toy bag, eating cookies and more.

Everyone starts with an initial package; Package 1, 2 or 3, which you can see below and select when you book your session.  Each session is designed for the immediate family only, if you want to schedule with cousins or friends; you will need to book two sessions back to back.  

Once you book your session you will receive our Santa Experience Guide through email and it will give you a ton of helpful tips in preparing for our session time and will have all of our additional products and packages that are avaialable for purchase in your gallery.  

Everyone will pay $50 at booking (your retainer fee) and then the balance of the package you choose will be due at your session.  (you will be invoiced prior to SANTA if you want to pay online, or you can choose to pay at your session)

PACKAGE 1 - $139 + TX

 Yes SANTA is coming to Specialty Photography on November 21, 2020.  It is going to be another fabulous year visiting with SANTA.  This is always such a fun day full of Christmas Magic.  

This year our theme is SANTA'S Kitchen.   Which is perfect for this year with Covid -19 and all the safety measures that we need to take.   The kitchen set will give your little one time to decorate cookies, look like they are baking some,  all the while visiting with Santa (who is at a little bit of distance)  This year we will not have the children sitting on Santa's lap, but instead interacting with him in the Kitchen.    We are also only allowing one family in the studio at a time and we have sessions spaced out to give us time to clean and sanitize between each and every session.  Safety is always a top priority here at our studio.

Santa's Christmas Porch | Venus Texas Children Photographer

This year's SANTA set was so adorable!  and... SANTA Steve did a great job visiting with all the children.  He knew their names and something special about them to start conversations.  It was so much fun to see their little eye's get big when Santa started talking with them.  Priceless moments for sure.

Our set design was set up to look like a country porch, somewhere fun and cozy Santa might hang out.  Everyone seemed to love it!  I love creating new set designs each year :)

Here are the highlights from our day with SANTA...

Thank you all for coming to see SANTA this year!  I loved having you all and hope that you each had the Merriest of Christmas celebrations!

Santa Claus came to visit | Venus Texas Newborn Photographer

We had the best time when SANTA came to visit the studio.  We had a small group come by to visit, but we sure had a blast and made some awesome memories for two special little ones.

Our set design this year was Santa's Cocoa Shop and man did it turn out adorable!

Don't you just love it?!!

Before the kiddo's arrived Santa was getting all settled in and checking out his set up for the day...

He had to make sure everything was just right :)

My assistant Anna (and mom) had to get a photo in the set too...

Truly am grateful for all her help here at the studio!! She is an awesome assistant!!

Before the children got to see Santa we took a few minutes to capture some fun Christmas photos for mom and dad.  They are so cute!  Then we had them ring the bell and SANTA came out to visit each one.

 Isn't he just adorable?!  I love his big smile and he really enjoyed Santa Claus!!

They are buds...

 Mom & Dad with little Casey and of course Santa too.

 Oh my!  I just love Kinley and her big eyes and oh that outfit!! So cute!!

 Kinley was super happy and having a good ole' time having her photos made, but when SANTA entered the scene, she was not too happy lol.  She was trying to make a quick getaway!  Such an awesome memory of her first visit with SANTA.

All better now that the guy in red is gone lol :)  Oh!  and Kinley loved the marsh mellows too :)

Thank you both for bringing your little ones to visit SANTA and for allowing us to capture memories of their first Christmas!  Such a huge honor!!

Merry Christmas Everyone!!
