We love it when parents, grandparents, and even pets get involved in our sessions! Each child will have a meet-and-greet experience with Santa and Mrs. Claus, see their names on his Nice List, and turn in their Christmas Wish Lists. Then, we will create a specially commissioned art piece for the entire family.
Envision “The Last Supper” meets “A Christmas Story”. Each member of the family (yes, even pets!) is given a role and carefully positioned and create each element from scratch. The result is a family heirloom that you’ll treasure forever.
