Mall Santas are a classic when it comes to holiday portraits… but there's something unsatisfying about them. I’m not sure if it's the brutal line, the crying kids, or the stagnant ‘sit on Santa's lap’ pose, but it never truly captures the potential for Christmas spirit.

Something that has stood out to me is the connection between the children and Santa. Personalizing the experience with the kids’ names and interests makes it that much more special to them. And imagine coming back the following year to Santa still remembering your dog's name that came into the studio previously! The point is, creating a bond with an on set actor like Santa has proven to create better memories. Those smiles become a touch more genuine, the laughs echo through the room, and the magic becomes real. All of that genuine energy transfers through the lens and captures a photo surrounding that moment. When that moment is special, the photo becomes even more magical.

It gets even more interesting when those teenagers pose with a mall santa, holding their little siblings hand to create some comfort. But at that moment, do they feel the Christmas spirit? The older kids often feel excluded and disappointed with holiday portraits. But what if a studio created an experience that brought back those jolly ol’ smiles? The entire family having fun and capturing memories sounds too good to be true! Luckily, it is never too late to make sure that everyone feels the warmth of Christmas, especially with some of Santa's cookies and milk!

Holiday portraits are something that become not only a tradition, but an heirloom to look back on each year. They should capture the true heart of your family and be something to look forward to each year.

This Santa Experience is more than just a one frame portrait. Dawn Sela Photography has created a magical way to capture quality time with your family– all while delivering a piece of art to be cherished for years to come. Each scene is different, encompassing every part of the holiday with every member of the family getting a special focus. Children leave with the memories of meeting the real Santa, and parents leave with that real joy in the photos.

For us, we hold onto special stories about your Santa experience. When parents tear up viewing the pictures, we know that those memories will be held on to forever in your home.

Santa's back in the North Pole for now, but he can not wait to share next years holiday season with you!

Remember to book that session, we'll have milk and cookies waiting!
