I’m not sure where the time went, but just like that, we have wrapped up our third annual Santa event here in Orange County, CA. I feel so blessed to have been able to kickstart the holiday season with so many amazing clients that come back year after year, and I was excited to see some new faces as well!

I may be a bit biased, but I think our Santa is THE best! He’s great at making the kids feel comfortable and reading their social cues. We have so many people comment on how he's the REAL Santa- yes, of course, he is!

The kids had a chance to read a book and share their Christmas list and wishes (one for his two front teeth!). Then, as their time came to an end, Santa sent each child on their way with a bell engraved with the word “Believe.”

Our youngest visitor this year was just 6 weeks old and our oldest was 9 years old. Some chose to sit on Santa’s lap, others beside him, and some visited from a distance. Every year is different. There are tears (okay…lots of tears!) joy, and laughter. One year your child might love Santa and the next want nothing to do with him. And you know what? That's to be expected - totally normal! These photos are priceless, years from now when your children are grown and out of the house, you will wish they could turn back time and be back in these moments with your babies.

Embrace the joy and chaos of the holidays with your little ones and hug them tight! They won’t be this little for long and there’s a lot of magic in the years they believe.

This event has been months in the making and is one of our most anticipated events of the year. I do everything I can to make this the most magical experience for your family, and I appreciate all of your thoughtful words and notes about what a joy it is for your family. I am already looking forward to next year! But for now, I pray you all have a wonderful holiday season filled with joy, laughter, and so much love!

Merry Christmas- see you in 2022!
