Capturing the perfect moment with Santa
Embrace the festive season and make creating magical moments with Santa a smooth experience.
• Preparing the kids
It's important to get the little ones excited and comfortable before the big day to ensure a delightful Santa photo experience. A great way to build anticipation is by reading Santa-themed books together. Stories like Christmas Wombat and Christmas in Australia can spark excitement and curiosity. Pick up these delightful stories and more at QBD Books.
Another idea is to encourage your children to write a letter to Santa and bring it along to their session. This not only gives them a purpose for their visit but also helps them feel more at ease when they meet Santa. Find Santa-themed stationery at Typo.
You could even practise saying “cheese” with a festive twist, like shouting “ho-ho-ho” or “Santa says smile”!
• Make it a fun outing
Turn your Santa photo session into a full festive day out! Start by planning a special treat for the kids to enjoy after the photos. Visit Three Beans for a tasty holiday-themed snack.
To unwind, head to one of the playgrounds or even catch a holiday movie at Hoyts.
• On-theme: choosing the right outfit
From shimmering gold sparkles to holly motifs and trendy Christmas prints, there’s no shortage of festive outfits to make your Santa photos shine. Picking out the perfect outfit can make your Santa photos even more memorable. Head to Kmart or Cotton On for festive onesies, t-shirts and dresses for kids of all ages.
Add some fun accessories like reindeer antlers or a Santa hat. At Tweed City, you’ll find a range of stores offering great Christmas clothing and accessories. Pop in before your photo session to get everyone dressed to impress!
