FAQ
 
Only 5 minutes?
Only one family is scheduled every 15 minutes. This gives us 5 minutes to welcome your child(ren) and get them settled; 5 minutes of solid photography time; and 5 minutes to say good byes.
Having done this before, we find it's the perfect balance of time.
What do we wear?
We suggest PJs as they work best with this set. When you book, you'll receive an email confirmation with a PDF attached that reviews wardrobe suggestions and other local favorites to make your trip into fun for the whole family.
Can we arrive early?
Yes! We ask that all families arrive 15-20 minutes early. Due to the nature of these sessions, we have to operate on a strict time schedule. Missed sessions are not guaranteed reschedules. This is a one-day-only session. Papa Noel is in high demand at this time of year! ;)
We will have activities, crafts, and games for the kiddos while they wait. Everything is inside so no worries for weather.
Do we have to schedule a session or can we just show up?
Yes, all families must be pre-scheduled. No walk-ins will be taken. These sessions are only happening for one day this year and we cannot break schedule.
How long does it take to receive the final edited photos?
We understand the anticipation of seeing your final portraits. Our editing process typically takes 1-2 weeks, depending on the volume of images and the complexity of editing required. AI is never used as we prioritize quality and that human warmth is wrapped into each exceptional image.
What happens if the weather is unfavorable on the day of the shoot?
Who cares? lol. No, seriously, this set is fully interior. Our studio is located inside of a larger building allowing for private sessions, a warm "waiting" room, full kitchen with coffee, and clean bathrooms.
Can we expect this set next year?
Nope! Each year we design a fully NEW set for a wholly new wonderland experience.
We're also under contract with our Papa Noel so you won't find him with any other photographers either.
Make sure to follow us on social media to keep up with next year's shenanigans. Sessions happening in early October have additional, fantastical options available that only an extended production time can create.
