I have been feeling as the kids headed back to school this fall that so many things have been taken away from kids this year due to the ongoing Covid’19 battle. Yes, life has changed and we all need to adapt. And yes my favourite word used to be Pivot (from the Friend’s Sofa episode 😉 now it has become one of my least favourite words ranking up there with “new normal” on the list of terms that cause me irritation LOL. Yes we have to adapt and yes we will get through this but I can have a little bit of two year old push back against it if I want to 🙂
So I have found a way to have Santa Photo sessions. The usual Mall style, sit on Santa’s lap will not be happening this year. BUT I am so excited to deliver my affectionately termed “stalker Santa” photo sessions. Santa will be there keeping a socially safe distance away but still delivering beautiful Christmas themed photos.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Time: Please arrive 10 minutes before your session time. This gives you plenty of time to get organized and ready to use your full time allotment for photos. You will be greeted by one of my assistants and brought to the photo area.
Location: The location is on a private farm property and generously donated for our use. Please respect the property. It is in the Orangeville Area. Full location details will be confirmed at the time of booking.
Santa: Please note that my Santa is not the real Santa but one of Santa’s many “teenaged” helpers. 😉 Santa needs to stay healthy and follows the covid’19 rules. So Santa will wave and say hello. If you bring a letter that you would like Santa to read we will have a special spot for them and see that they get to the real Santa for you.
Props: We will swap out and clean props between each session. IF you are concerned about germs you are welcome and encouraged to bring your own props (blankets, baskets (for younger children) etc.)
Covid’19 Realities : I and my assistants will be wearing masks during the sessions. Your Temperatures will be taken with an infrared thermometer and all of the Covid’19 protocol questions will be asked. You will be asked to “purell” your hands before entering the photo session. Please reschedule if you have come in contact with a positive covid’19 case, or feel unwell in any way. We are all in this together. If you are unwilling to follow the protocols you will not be permitted into the photo session. For Full details on my Covid’19 requirements please visit this other blog posting with complete protocol information.
