The magic begins even before children step through our doors. A beautiful letter arrives from the North Pole, inviting them to visit Santa himself. Excitement builds as they imagine what awaits on the other side of that invitation.
When the day arrives, Mrs. Claus greets them warmly at the door. Our home has been completely transformed into what so many mothers describe as “a real-life Hallmark Movie.” Every detail — the twinkling lights, the festive décor, the cozy bakery, and a special room built just for Santa — sets the stage for an unforgettable story.
✨ “Would you love for your child to receive their very own letter from the North Pole? [Start creating memories that last a lifetime]
Inside, children spend 45 minutes with Santa. Together, they’ll check the Nice List, listen to stories, play games, and even meet Santa’s helper, Julie Jingels. Each child receives a golden bell from Santa’s bag and hears about its magic — a keepsake that carries Christmas wonder long after the season ends.
This isn’t a quick Mini Session like the ones you see advertised everywhere at Christmas. This is a one-of-a-kind experience designed to create heirloom artwork for your family — albums and portraits that preserve your child’s Christmas magic for generations. Families treasure these pieces as part of their holiday traditions, year after year

This Santa Experience is $295, which includes your family’s private visit with Santa and all of the little details mentioned in this blog, from the letter from Santa, Meeting Mrs. Claus at the door, the presents from Santa and our famous cookies and hot cocoa bakery as well as access to our children wardrobe closet to make your visit stress free.
Heirloom wall art and albums are purchased separately, with pieces beginning at $595. These portraits are designed to last for generations, so you can relive this magical season year after year.
✨ This experience isn’t for everyone. Some families may be looking for a quick mini session, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. But for those who value art, traditions, and preserving memories, our Santa Experience is designed with you in mind. We only welcome 30 families each year to ensure every detail is perfect—and as of today, just 7 sessions remain.
So why do we limit this experience to only 30 families each season? Because every detail matters. Like a Hallmark Movie brought to life, this tradition is crafted with love, artistry, and care — and limiting sessions ensures each family receives the magic they deserve.
✨ Only 30 families will experience this year’s story. Will yours be one of them?
Our Magical Santa Sessions are located near Mars and Cranberry Township, Pa.
