Magical Santa Experience in Ottawa
Booking now open for 2025!

Sample behind-the-scenes from 2024 Magical Santa Experience in Ottawa!

An holiday experience you don't want to miss!

​The Magical Santa Experience is a fine art portrait experience that your children will remember for years to come! 

Our professionally trained Santa has been with us for 5 years now, and children love his quiet demeanour and easygoing personality. With the extended 30-minute Santa session, there's plenty of time for even shy children to warm up to him! After their one-on-one time with Santa, we reserve 10 minutes for family portraits on a stunning set using couture dresses from the studio closet!

What will my child do during their experience with Santa?

Picture this: Santa is busy at work in his cozy North Pole workshop when, suddenly, he hears the playful sounds of little elves causing a commotion! Dressed in adorable elf costumes provided by the studio, your children will play Santa's little helpers who get up to all sorts of festive mischief!

In set #2, I've brought back the popular cookie baking set, but this time we will have fun decorating cookies to take home!  

 

As always, we'll end the session with a beautiful family portrait in set #3, including access to the studio closet of gowns and suits (see Holiday Wardrobe Gallery).
