Santa Session - Why choose a photographer over the Mall

Photos with Santa are a magical experience for kids.  Santa mini sessions with KRP Photography and Santa Rock of DE are a one of a kind experience and make memories that will last a lifetime.

So why choose a professional photographer over the mall for your Santa photos.

Mall                                                      VS                   Custome Photo Session                            
-You are rushed with Santa                                        - You have 30 minutes of one on one time
- You only get 1 pose option for prints                     - You get multiple poses
- Only get to sit on Santas lap                                   - You get to walk and play with Santa
- Have to wait in long lines                                        - No line to wait in you book the time you want
- Cant do pets & kids together                                  - Pets are welcome, Families too, not just kids
- Different Santa each location/year                          - We use the same awesome Santa each year

Session Tips:


1.  Trust the Pros - Santa is a pro and has been taking photos with kids for years!  Trust Santa to
      bring out the smiles from them.  Dont stress about it before your session, your child can sense
      that and could become scared of Santa.

2.  Read Santa Books - If your little one has stranger anxiety, start reading Santa books a few days
      before the visit.  Build up the excitement and get your little one used to Santa

3.  Prevent the figits - Dont dress your kids in something uncomfortable.  While cute outfits make
     great photos, you dont want it to stop the smiles.  Find a mix of adorable and comfortable.

4.  Stage the Set with Positivity - Try not to say "Dont be afraid" or "Santa isnt going to hurt you."  
     Again let Santa do the warm up work.  Private sessions means we have time.  Santa will work
     with your child to eliminate the fear.

5.  Embrace the tears - There will be many years of Santa visits when your child is overjoyed at
     meeting him.  If you child is little and starts to cry - enjoy it.  The most memorable visits are the
     photos with the giant screams.  If it is you this year, enjoy... it will most likely only be once.

Daddy & Me

Love that this session was all my husbands idea and vision.  Glad I could capture it for him.  This year my son has really taken an interest in hunting and it was great to document it.  Love these photos and they mean a lot to our family.

Because You were there too!!!

Everyone knows how important it is to document life, capture memories for our families because the years are fleeting.  You need to be in the pictures as well.

So you don't like you photo taken?  Neither do I!!!  Get over it! Get dolled up so you feel great, it will help you want to get in front of the camera.  No matter what you look like your kids wont care.  They just want to know who you were, what you like and what you looked like at 20, 25, 30, 30, 50 and on.  Also they want to see you interacting with them in photos.  Do it before its too late, time is not guaranteed.  Photo's remind us of loved ones once they are no longer with us and of those great times we once had.

Need ideas how to take self portraits?  Here are some tips.

1.  Use a Tripod
     Not necessary item, but definitely makes it easier.

2.  Choose your setting, then your settings
     Prep the area you will be shooting.  Be sure it is not cluttered.  Pay attention to the light and
     cameras vantage point.  Set your aperture, ISO, Shutter & White Balance.

3.  Pre Focus
     Very Important step.  Have someone or something in frame where you will be, set focus, change
      to Manual Focus to lock the focus.  The Shoot

4.  Close Down
     Use a smaller aperture then you normally would if were behind the camera.  This will help ensure
     everyone is in focus.  (5.6 is a good starting point)

5.  Use a Remote &/or the timer
     This will allow you to sit relaxed and get the shots you want.  An there's no running to beat the
      shutter!  Take series of photos to show interactions.

6.  Don't Always be Serious
    Have fun! Make faces, let kids pose/come up with ideas, try new things.  Just be sure to have fun!

They don't even have to be elaborate photos.  Use a point and shoot or cell phone and do the whole arm extended group shot.  As long as you are together in the photo that's what matters!  So get out there take some photos and enjoy making memories. 

Another option is to hire your favorite photographer and have them do the work for you and then you can just enjoy the process and end results!!!
