Christmas Photo Sessions in Calgary 2025
🎄 Christmas Sessions Are Here with 2 Magical Options Just for You
It’s the most wonderful time of the year, and the most magical way to celebrate is here!
This season, we’re offering two unique photo experiences that bring the spirit of the holidays to life:
Option One: The Santa Experience
This is a one-of-a-kind, private holiday experience with Santa that your family will never forget! Available by custom appointment between October 20 and November 15. Your children will enjoy stories, games, and holiday fun in a relaxed, cozy environment.
No lines, no rush, just joy.
The experience includes 10 printed images beautifully presented in a custom-designed box for $1,290 (Reg. $1,840), or you can upgrade to 25 images in a luxury album for $2,490 (Reg. $3,240). Additional images and products can be purchased during your private viewing appointment.
This is perfect for families who want to slow down and give their kids the true gift of holiday wonder.
Only 5 sessions are available — book now before they’re gone!
Option Two: Mini Sessions
Our Christmas Mini Sessions are short, sweet, and filled with festive spirit. The perfect way to capture the magic of the season in just 20 minutes.
Held one day only on November 8, these in-studio sessions feature a cozy Christmas backdrop and are open to all ages, with a minimum age of 5 months for babies.
You’ll select your favourite images on the same day, and the package includes 3 high-resolution digital images for $390. With only 10 spots available, these sessions are perfect for holiday cards, meaningful gifts, and timeless keepsakes.
They sell out quickly every year, don’t miss your chance to book!

“We’ve done Santa photos at the mall before, but this was something completely different, and so much better. My kids had a full hour to laugh, play, eat cookies, and talk with Santa like he was an old friend. There were no lines, no rush, and no stress. Amanda captured every little smile and moment beautifully. The photos brought tears to my eyes, and the keepsake box is something we’ll treasure forever. I can’t recommend this experience enough, it was absolutely magical.”
