Experience the magic and fun of our fully immersive and interactive Magical Santa Photos Experience. Your children’s imagination will unfold as they step into their very own real-life magical storybook. You'll see the twinkle in their eyes come to life from the moment your children enter Santa’s home away from home to the moment they leave.
Our Magical Santa Photos Experience is a tradition unlike any other. Designed to be a private, stress-free, and magical event directed by our award-winning portrait photographer, the private, 25-minute interactive session leads your children through a series of storybook sequences with Santa. These seamless interactions include sharing milk and cookies, reviewing the nice list, painting a toy with Santa, and much more. Your children will leave with a magical key to be left under your doormat for Santa on Christmas Eve. We also welcome parents to sneak in a gift for Santa to surprise them with, as well as to join in at the end for a family portrait!
Our Magical Santa Photos family prides itself in creating bespoke experiences designed to produce stunning photography and art products, such as our one-of-a-kind StoryPoetry Album and beautiful wall art that you and your children will cherish for a lifetime and beyond.

Experience the Difference in Our Santa Photos
Irene Abdou Photography, LLC specializes in creating one-of-a-kind, unforgettable, immersive Santa photos through experiences that teleport children to the North Pole to spend time with the Jolliest of Toymakers.
We've created this experience to share the spirit of Christmas and the wonderment of the season, while allowing you to avoid long lines at the mall. Say good-bye to 2-minute Santa photos and fake smiles, and never again be surrounded by a crowd of teary-eyed children!
What if... with a little bit of magic...
You step foot into our magical wonderland studio, and our elves welcome your family and lead you to Santa’s Home Away from the North Pole. Then, your children have the unique opportunity to privately experience a series of interactive activities with Santa, including reading a classic Christmas story, finding the North Pole on a globe, painting a toy with Santa, and much, much more!
You watch your children smile and their faces fill with hope and joy...
And as the adventure progresses, our award-winning portrait photographer creates one-of-a-kind portraits of your children immersed in the magic of Christmas.
And we don't stop there.
Afterwards, bring the magic of Christmas home with you to enjoy for generations to come with a personalized StoryPoetry Album starring your children as the main characters of their very own Christmas adventure and wall art that becomes part of your Christmas Decor year after year!
.. Because creating meaningful and extraordinary memories that both your children and YOU will cherish for a lifetime is our passion!
"Twas the eve before Christmas and little steps could be heard.
The Elves looked at each other but none said a word.
Santa looked at his clock and started to grin,
as he knew the children would soon be coming in."
Why Now?
Your family will never be as it is now. Your children will never be the age they are now ever again.
This year, let the magic of Christmas come alive, so your children can enjoy the Christmas experience they never before dreamed of.
Years from now, when they have children of their own, they will be able to look back at this time in their childhood with nostalgia, and forever remember the year they helped Santa get ready for Christmas.
Don’t let this wondrous experience that will leave the entire family awe-struck pass you by.
