Green Bay, Wisconsin

The Spinler Family joined us for our first ever Santa Session in Green Bay event. We had Santa join us in our winter wonderland decked out studio. The Spinler kiddos spent time with Santa reading stories, singing carols, eating cookies, and hanging ornaments. They even each received a gift from Santa which the older boys seemed to really love.

When the Spinler kids first came into the studio. The littlest one wasn’t quite sure what he was walking into but warmed up quickly with a few tickles. Each kiddo sat on Santa’s lap, telling them what they wanted for Christmas. Initially, the oldest was suspicious that I may have told Santa their names. Santa addressed them by name and asked if they had been naughty or nice when they walked in. So when they received their personalized elf plush, the oldest looked at me and then at Santa. You could tell in his head he had some inner dialog, “Oh, maybe I was wrong. This guy does know who I am.” It was adorable. Every bit of the experience was adorable. A great time was had by all.

When they were all done hanging out and Santa’s cheeks were getting a little red. The Spinler family headed downstairs to our dinning room. Where they enjoyed a holiday charcuterie board and hot cocoa bar. While coloring a photo of Santa, creating a wish list, and putting their letter into Santa’s mailbox.

Honestly, we can’t wait for next years sessions and we will certainly be making this an annual event.
