Mini Photo Sessions with Santa

Thanks for a great 2021 Christmas mini-session season!

**See the info below for policies and important info. By booking a Christmas Mini-Session with Santa, you acknowledge and affirm that you have read and agree to all session policies sited below. 

Policies and Important Info:

What if I have a screamer?

I have four little one's myself and over 14 years of working with small children in family photography. I will work very hard to get great smiles! However, it's all part of the experience! I shoot quickly and we will do our best to make the experience fun, some kids just aren't Santa fans (yet!) Come prepared to be in some of the pictures just in case! 

How long before I get my pictures?

About 1-2 weeks pending everyone in my family stays healthy! Photos will be delivered via an online gallery digital download.  


*If at all possible, please do not email / message to see when your photos will be ready. If 15 days have passed since your session day, (4 days for rush editing,) then please do reach out to be sure your contact info is correct, etc. I TOTALLY get the anxious anticipation in waiting, and because I love and appreciate you all SO much, I will respond to EVERY one of your inquiries. Having to constantly stop work to respond to these messages, however, actually slows the process down further. If your photos are running behind schedule, (Lord willing - they won't!) I will be sure to let you know. (This would usually only be due to a major family emergency.) 

What if the weather is bad?

All photos will be taken indoors at Premier Flooring, so not a problem! 

Who will be playing Santa?

Santa Aaron is AMAZING! He is fun, happy and loves kids! (He has four of his own!) He has been background checked and volunteers at his church regularly. He also has a degree in psychology and worked in group homes, in-home family counseling, transitional living for at-risk teens and social work for years. On weekends he loves spending time with his family, playing video games and going on adventures. Santa Aaron is also available for party's and events as well as online video calls with Santa for your little one! Check out his Facebook for more info: @NashvilleSantaClaus

Do we HAVE to take photos with Santa? Can we do some without?

Absolutely! We always try and start with a few photos without Santa regardless. We will send out more information regarding checking in, logistics, introduction of Santa, and photo day tips in an email the day before your session.


If you would not like Santa in any photos, please let me know when you book. 

Can I bring my pet?

It depends... We usually always try to book pets at the end of the day (as the Santa suit is sprayed down and sanitized afterwards.) We also only allow one animal in the studio area at a time.  


Friendly, smaller, hypoallergenic dogs are preferred. Sheila is very allergic to cats, (sadly - cause we all love them!) 


ALWAYS ask when booking before showing up with a pet. It is considered on a case-by-case basis and scheduling is carefully considered before approval. Please let us know if the animal will be held by the owner the entire time and not touch Santa as this may factor into the approval.


PLEASE DO NOT BRING ANY PET INTO THE STUDIO WITHOUT ASKING AND GETTING THE "OK" FROM OUR STAFF PRIOR TO YOUR SESSION. We have a LOT to coordinate, unique special needs, client and staff allergies as well as kids with mild to severe autism. We would hate to let you know upon arrival that your pet is not allowed, but if you simply show up with an animal, that is a very likely possibility. 


*All "messes" or pet accidents in the studio are the responsibility of the owner. 

Do you always share the photos publicly? (Facebook, website, etc.)

I usually do share a few images publicly in a "sneak peek" post on Facebook or on my website. However, I NEVER "tag" names of parents or use any child's name in a post. You, as the parent, are more than welcome to tag and share your own images! I like to leave this up to each parent's personal preference and discretion.

*If you request that your images are not ever shared publicly, I am more than happy to accommodate and respect this. Please let me know this when you book. 

What if my child is sick or I am unable to make my session time?

If you give at least 24 hours' notice, I will do my best to reschedule your photo session to another available mini session day/time if available. I am a parent too! I know the unexpected can happen! Refunds will not be issued; however, your payment can be put towards another regular photo session with Sheila Wilson Photography as long as it is used within one year of the purchase date.

By purchasing a mini photo session, you understand and agree to the above policies and conditions.
