Santa in the Park

As well as your immediate family, you can organise multi-generational photos with grandparents, grandchildren, siblings, etc.
If you would like more then 5 family members to attend, or would like more time with Santa, you’ll just need to book multiple sessions.
Your beloved dog(s) are welcome too – Natural Lights Photography love when furry family members can join the fun!
