Our 8th Annual Santa Experience 2024 | Central Virginia Santa Pictures

A Personal and Custom Santa photo Experience

One of my favorite events of the entire holiday season is our very own Santa Experience here at Liz Cook Photography where we offer pictures with Santa in a personal, private space in Central Virginia. For multiple days in a row, my team and I get to watch pure magic unfold before our eyes as children enjoy one-on-one conversations with Santa in the privacy of our studio.

Our Santa Claus knows each child who visits by name, he asks them about their personal interests and new things that have happened over the past year of their lives. The children’s eyes glow, their toes curl, they fidget with their fingers… they are overwhelmed with awe and smitten with his presence. It’s absolute joy! Capturing these little details and each child’s personal expressions and responses is one of my favorite things I do in my line of work!

But I think my absolute favorite element of our Santa Experience is that each and every year our set up is the same. It creates a beautiful way to capture your child in the very season they are in while watching their growth as the years pass by. I LOVE to look back on my own children’s pictures with Santa and see as they have changed both physically and emotionally.

Here are a few examples of families who came to see Santa this year that have come multiple years in a row. Look at how their children have grown!!
