Capturing life’s little moments as they truly are with classic, timeless portraits. I serve Effingham County & surrounding areas.
Here’s what to expect from our Santa sessions! 🎅
We will be hosting this at a beautiful event venue with plenty of space to relax & enjoy the experience without feeling rushed.
The week before your session, your child will receive a personalized invitation from Santa himself inviting them to join him & Mrs. Claus for some fun!
When your family arrives to your session, your child will spend time with best Mrs. Claus ever (Mrs. Patsy Zeigler) enjoying a Christmas story & creating Mrs. Claus’ favorite Christmas craft!
Then it’s time to visit Santa! For little ones who are shy, Santa can quietly sneak around from behind the tree to start with to be sure we get some great pictures before any possible tears. Our Santa experience focuses on genuine interaction rather than forced smiles. Santa takes time to talk, laugh, listen & create meaningful moments with each child. We want each child to feel comfortable so we can make adjustments depending on their comfort level. We will have a beautiful antique rocking horse & rocking chair for children who may prefer to sit in those instead of in Santa’s lap or beside him. During their visit, they’ll search Santa’s nice list scroll to find their name, peek in Santa’s magical toy sack, laugh, share their Christmas wishes & more. Every child will receive a special surprise treat from Santa.
I’d love to welcome your family this Christmas! Every detail has been thoughtfully planned to capture the wonder of childhood, the magic of believing & celebrate the joy of the season through meaningful, sweet, some silly & all genuine moments while sending your family home with beautiful images to capture it all.

A fun little sneak peek! 👀
When I found this beautiful antique sofa, I immediately knew I had to have it for Santa sessions, so we headed downtown Savannah to a historic home to pick it up! It’s hard to picture now, but soon it will have the elegant character I’ve been looking for for Santa’s grand sofa! I can’t wait to see it come back to life & become part of the memories we’ll create together this holiday season. I thought it would be fun to take you along as it all comes together. I can’t wait to share the finished piece when I pick it up from the upholsterer in a few weeks so stay tuned! I already know so many sweet moments are going to take place on it & that makes me even more excited for Santa sessions! 🎅

🎅 Santa Portraits
Santa sessions are 3 months away! These are more than a picture session. It’s a Christmas memory your children will love- a personalized invitation mailed to your child from Santa, craft & story time with the best Mrs. Claus (Mrs. Patsy Zeigler), a magical visit with "the real" Santa as everyone says, genuine moments & timeless portraits that capture every shy smile, silly giggle & sweet moment during it! We have beautiful antique props for all ages & Santa has a treat for each child! These are on a Monday, but Effingham schools are out this day!
