Photos with Santa! @ Alley Farm Photo & Film

Santa’s coming! But who wants to spend an hour waiting in line at the mall to see Santa only to get one polaroid photo of your tired, cranky kids with him? ???? Not when you can get your family’s own PRIVATE session with him instead!

Use this time for your kids to tell Santa what they want for Christmas, read a book, eat cookies and even see Mrs. Clause, all while getting professional photos taken to treasure forever? kids can come dressed in pajamas or holiday outfits!

These Studio Santa minis will take place on Nov. 26 & 27 inside my studio in Winlock, WA! Each 10-minute session will receive 8-10 professionally edited images for $150. Turnaround time is one week from your session date, so still plenty of time to order your Christmas cards! Spots are filling quickly; save yours before they run out!?
