MEET TARA

Are you considering bringing your children for South Jersey Santa pictures in 2023? Well, you’re in the right place! Santa Claus is everyone’s beloved figure during the holiday season! And while it might feel early to think about Santa photos, remember that Santa is quite busy preparing for his special time with your little ones. From our previous Santa Sessions, we’ve gathered some invaluable tips to ensure you have a memorable Santa experience!

Ever had a Santa photo session that was more stressful than joyful? You’re not the only one! We all desire our children to feel the wonder that comes with meeting Santa, without any additional stress. As a parent to two energetic kids (2.5 & 5 year old boys), I can relate to the challenge of getting the perfect shot!

Discover Our Top 4 Tips for Captivating South Jersey Santa Pictures in 2023!

Tip #1- Ensure your kids don’t see Santa with other children before their turn!

It’s key! This is why mall or store-based Santa photos can be chaotic. They don’t offer the intimacy of a one-on-one moment. At our Santa Experience, the studio becomes exclusively yours for the entire time slot, ensuring your children have their first genuine reaction to Santa without distractions.

Tip #2- Parents, be camera-ready especially if you have young ones!

This might sound odd, but bear with us. If your child is meeting Santa for the first time or had a previous not-so-pleasant experience, they might be hesitant. Dress in a way you wouldn’t mind being photographed, so you can join the shot and comfort them next to Santa, capturing heartwarming moments.

Tip #3- Bring a special gift from Santa!

At our Haddonfield Santa Session, you can bring a “present from Santa” for your child. Drop it off at the studio before your session, and watch their eyes light up with joy as they unwrap a surprise from Santa.

Tip #4- Personalize with cherished Christmas items!

Every family has unique holiday traditions. Bring along that special Christmas storybook or a unique ornament. Personal touches, like Santa reading your family’s favorite Christmas tale, can make the experience all the more unforgettable.

Impressed with these tips? Share the festive spirit with friends and family!
