The Real Santa Experience
-2025 PETITES-
Looking for an amazing experience to capture your favorite loves with the most incredible Santa and ending in gorgeous artwork to remember the experience?
You're in the right place!
The Santa Experience is here for two days only this December!
Let's plan a sweet session for your child to capture excitement for Christmas in this season of childhood! Cue the sparkle and snowflakes!
Our Santas are the real deal! Real beards, jolly laughs, sleigh bells, fur-trimmed velvet suits. They are incredible with bigs and littles alike! You will find absolute Christmas joy inside the studio with our Santas and leave believing they just came in from the North Pole.
There will be time for photos AND a little chat beside the Christmas tree with Santa!
Sessions are up to 10 minutes for a session fee of $250 (regularly $500!) and comes with a $200 artwork credit. Your session fee secures YOUR family's spot in my calendar for this limited event!
Your session will be held at The Studio on WFU campus in Winston-Salem, NC.
The average minimum investment to include additional artwork or digitals is $400. There is no obligation to purchase additional artwork.
TWO amazing SANTAS IN DECEMBER!

Your child's story is unique;
the journey to telling it should be too.
These days, photo sessions can feel so transactional—pay, show up, smile for a stranger.
But that’s not how your child’s story should be told.
From our first conversation, you’ll feel supported every step of the way. I’ll help with everything—from wardrobe to posing to creating artwork that fits your home and your heart. Together, we’ll make images that truly mean something—photos you’ll treasure for a lifetime, not leave on a hard drive.
These days, booking a photo session can feel so transactional. You reach out, get a list of packages, pay a fee, and then you show up and a stranger captures some of your most intimate moments.
That’s not how your child's story should be told.
From the very first communication after your simple booking, you’ll feel guided, supported, and completely taken care of. Every step of the way, I’m here to help—whether it’s choosing the perfect wardrobe, guiding your child into easy posing, or designing artwork that fits beautifully in your home. Together, we’ll create images that bring you back to these moments every time you see them—photos that don’t just sit on a hard drive, but fill your heart and your home for years to come.

Emily is GREAT! She is highly professional. We’ve worked with her a few times and my son is very comfortable and at ease with her. She has a beautiful lay out both times and is very patient. Emily has a gift! She does beautiful work. For someone to be as patient with my son who has Down Syndrome and is Autistic and to still capture beautiful work is top notch amazing!! Thank you Emily!

Let me say this… if you have a little one and want to get an Awesome Photo Shoot done for them go to Emily Richardson Photography! Not only did Emily send helpful information to get you ready for the shoot but Emily also made the entire process super easy. This was our first time doing a shoot for our 2 year old little boy and she was so patient with him. She knew all the tricks to get him in the right spot. I mean I really can’t compliment her work enough. She was incredible to say the least. I will recommend her to all my friends and family. In fact I can’t wait to book a session to get our family photos done. Book with Emily Richardson Photography. You will not be disappointed!
_Jennifer F.
I cannot recommend Emily enough. She was so easy to work with, friendly, professional, and she took some of my favorite photos! I'm going to cherish them forever. She was able to capture my children's personalities in just a single snapshot. It's amazing what she is able to do. She's truly talented.
