Yeah, it's been on our mind since the summer. WHAT WILL WE DO ABOUT SANTA!?
Well, we all thought this would be a shorter lived pandemic, yes? But it's not. It's been stressful over here figuring out the RIGHT thing to do. How do we handle this? Our adventure has bounce houses and arts and crafts and snacks and snow machines and A WHOLE PARTY!!!!! And how can we do that and make it SAFE? How do we put all these kids across Santa's lap and make it SAFE? And after that, how do we keep it still an experience? Is a mask or a shield in any way the loving way we do Santa? It's been a real struggle to figure it out.
So I've been talking to Santa. I expressed that I didn't feel comfortable doing it. I hate that. Santa Adventure is the biggest thing in my studio. It's my most profitable time. It's my favorite time. I love seeing the kids experience Santa and I can't believe I'm even thinking of it. I've talked to numerous people. I've hear "just do it, it's no big deal" and I've heard "nooooo don't do it." I've really agonized over this decision.....
And we figured it out!
We aren't going to have Santa come here. There's no way to schedule shoot after shoot and try and sanitize between them. There's no way to keep the notion of "I paid a sitting fee and can't reschedule" so a sick child or parent comes. There's no way to make sure that Santa is healthy enough to bring toys to the masses on Christmas eve night. I simply don't want to be responsible for Santa being at home and sick at the North Pole.
So....I'm offering Christmas and holiday SESSIONS. Any time. Any day. Two variations. Choose between hot cocoa and cookies.... (OMG SO MUCH FUN) or the more traditional style of Christmas photos. We're still doing cards. They're still custom. All of the "things" are the same.... We aren't going to party afterwards, but if that's your jam, make sure you book a hot cocoa and cookie session! You'll be partying and I'll take your photos while you do!
BUT GUESS WHAT!?!?
Santa still needs to know what you want for Christmas....so you can ALSO GET a zoom appointment with Santa so when you go home, you schedule it and are able to download it and keep it....yep. The WHOLE CONVERSATION....HOW FUN IS THAT!?!?!?
Because we know you still need to talk to him. We get that. You still need to have fun photos...you still need to kick off your holidays with us...WE GOT YOU!!!!
So come on! Let's have fun and DO IT!
But, let's not get sick before the holiday season.... let's be safe. So we're choosing this way....
