I’m thrilled to share with you a little Christmas spirit. What’s more Christmasy than SANTA CLAUS? There is nothing like visiting Santa to get kids (and parents) excited for Christmas. Today I’m going to give you a few ideas to make your pictures with Santa MAGICAL.

The first tip I give parents is to orchestrate the visit. Give your kids a
little direction and encourage them to interact with Santa in ways that
allow you to capture those wondrous moments. Enjoy these ideas…
Don’t miss capturing the special moments with Santa because you are waiting for them to look at the camera and smile. Some of my favorite photos
were taken while the kids are simply chitchatting with Santa. Enjoy these examples…
 
The first thing my 2 year old said after sitting on Santa’s knee was “his fluffy
bread tickled me”.  Encourage hugs and kisses, those close moments make
the most adorable photos. Enjoy these examples…
 
 
  Santa with a child on his knee is the traditional photo.  I say break tradition and have your child stand next to him.  Great for girls in pretty dresses, fun for older kids and everyone else too. Enjoy these examples….
 
frightful
A visit with Santa is delightful for most kids, and very frightful for others.  Be sure to capture the terror in their faces.
We’ll all laugh later. Enjoy these examples….

Wishing everyone here at Tator Tots and Jello a very Merry Christmas.  May your days be filled with the magic and wonder of little children.
