AND 10" Keepsake Artpiece

Magical * Nastalgic * Wonderous
HOW TO CLAIM YOUR PRIZE
All you need to do is schedule your Fine Art Santa Portrait Session below.
Don't miss out on this special opportunity! Our availability is very limited and sessions book quickly!
To book, you’re going to see that it asks (and we ask all of our clients for this) a temporary $200 holding deposit. So why do we do that? We do that to make sure you are committed and show up because we have blocked off our studio for two hours plus Santa and staff come in from out of town. We’re going to make this an incredible experience for you, but we just need to know that you are going to show up. So that deposit guarantees that you are committed. It's refunded to you on the day of your appointment so it’s not something that we keep, it’s just a holding deposit.
We’re super excited that you’re a winner of our Facebook GiveAway. We really look forward to meeting you and creating this amazing piece off art that you will enjoy for years to come.

• A fun, stress free 15 minute session and exciting time for the children where smiles will occur naturally
• A private, fully immersive experience for just your children with Santa
• View and order your portraits immediately
• Hot chocolate, cookies and Christmas movies for the children while you order
WHAT TO WEAR
It is important that you pre-plan for your child’s portrait session with Santa. Our artistic vision will assure that your portraits will have a timeless and nostalgic feel to them.
These sessions are designed for children ages 2 to 12 years old
All children will be barefoot
Boys
We will provide pajamas for the boys.
We have pajama sizes 2 through 14.
Please inquire if we do not have a size that fits your child.
Girls
We can provide white nightgowns for the girls but we find that girls and their moms sometimes are picky and that’s okay! You can shop on Amazon, Etsy or your other favorite shop and find a large range of styles and prices. Try searching for “vintage white nightgowns for girls”. All white or off white and sleeves are a must (long or cap).
*PLEASE - NO sleeveless and NO colors*
Please fix their hair in a style that will keep it out of their face especially on their right side. A small white or red bow is fine. Braids and pony tails are cute. We cannot interrupt the session to pick on hair or bows.
Parents and Grandparents - OPTIONAL
Parents, grandparents or older siblings that would complete the family unit, may join the session for one pose. This is something optional if you would like to be part of the fun! Do not wear pajamas. Come dressed in casual solid colored clothes in browns, golds, creams or blues. It’s best if adults match in color and tone.
FAQs
When Should We Arrive?
Please arrive 10 minutes prior to your session to change clothes and be ready for your session at the scheduled time. Your session will be immediately followed by your ordering appointment. Please wait in your car if you are more than ten minutes early since these sessions are booked back to back all day and we want to keep everyone’s time special and private for them.
What is your Cancelation and Rescheduling Policy?
All sessions are non-refundable. If you need to cancel your session for any reason you forfeit your session fee. Please make sure the appointment time you select works for your calendar before you book. These sessions are very limited and in high demand, if you need to reschedule, there might not be another available time until next year. Rescheduled appointments pay a new session fee.
How Long Will we be at your Studio?
We have allotted one hour for your family. We try our very best to stay on schedule but cannot do that when people are late. We can not guarantee an appointment if you are late and we ask that you come prepared to place your order.
When can I see the Portraits?
You will view your portraits immediately following the session. Often a grandparent or other care giver will take the children home following the session, but we do provide Christmas movies, books and treats (hot chocolate and cookies) to keep your children happy while you make your decisions. This is the only time available to view and order so please bring anyone who is a decision maker in choosing and purchasing.
What's the Investment?
There is no obligation to purchase anything, however most people fall in love with what we create and want to have these portraits as a keepsake to look back on forever…long after their children outgrow the magic of Santa. Our portraits start at $500 and our storybooks begin at $1,750. Some families spend $500, others spend $5,000, most find that they can’t spend less than $1,500 and leave happy. Our pricing is designed with the idea that the more you buy, the more you save. We offer flexible payment plan options to fit your budget.
Can I Just Buy Digitals?
We specialize in wall art and heirloom storybooks and do not sell only digital files, There are options that include the matching digital files complimentary. They are delivered via a Dropbox download. We do not provide thumb drives or disks.
