Merry Everything!
There is nothing more magical than Christmas through a child's eyes.
The excitement of seeing Santa Claus. Pointing toward the moon looking for reindeer. Sharing cookies and milk. Checking the Nice List. The sweet smiles, Christmas wishes, and wide eyes that only happen when children truly believe.
Our Santa Experience is designed to be more than a photo session. It's a Christmas tradition your family will look forward to year after year.
During your private 30-minute visit, your children will spend one-on-one time with Santa, check the nice list, enjoy cookies and milk, and experience all the wonder and Christmas magic that make this season so special.
And when the season is over, you'll have more than photographs.
You'll have Christmas cards sent to family and friends, keepsake albums filled with holiday memories, custom ornaments hanging on your tree year after year, beautiful portraits to hang every Christmas, and keepsake boxes filled with the moments that make this season so special.
At Shannon Reece Jones Photography, we believe your Santa portraits deserve a place beyond your phone. They deserve to be enjoyed, shared, displayed, and passed down as part of your family's Christmas story. Whether it's a holiday card hanging on Grandma's refrigerator, an album brought out each December, a special ornament placed on the tree, or a framed portrait displayed every Christmas season, these are the pieces that become part of your family's traditions for years to come.
We are so honored to be a small part of your family's Christmas season and can't wait for your Santa portrait session!
A Private Santa Experience for Houston Families
2026 Santa Photography
From cookies and milk with Santa Claus to twinkling lights and Christmas music, I truly believe there is nothing more magical than seeing Christmas through a child's eyes.
My goal is to create more than beautiful photographs. I want to create Christmas cards, ornaments, Santa albums, and beautiful wall portraits that become part of your family's Christmas traditions for years to come.
Because the years of Santa Claus, Christmas wishes, and believing in reindeer are some of the sweetest years of all—and the ones you'll never want to forget.

KIND WORDS
Seeing your portraits in print is truly the best part of the entire photography experience — for Mom! For the kids, it's usually seeing Santa! I am so honored and so grateful to play a role in your holiday magic through a fun, festive Santa portrait photography session with you and your family. It really is a joy to celebrate your family!
After each session with Santa, we create keepsake albums, wall portraits, ornaments, and more! Most families will choose a wall portrait and order images to go into an album, as well as Christmas cards. You will get see all of the options at the studio as well.
Santa sessions are 30 minute private sessions with Santa Claus! All sessions take place at the studio in The Woodlands, Texas. Candy canes, cookies, hugs and Christmas carols are all included.
Santa sessions take place one weekend a year at the Shannon Reece Jones Photography Studio. This is the most magical time of the year and all families on the SRJP newsletter get first access to session openings.
More than just a photography session, the goal for each session is to create custom artwork for you, your family, and your home. Following your photography session, attend your design appointment, where you'll choose the portraits that you love and we will turn them into beautiful printed artwork.

Q. What if my baby child is afraid of Santa?
Babies don't always love Santa, and that's perfectly normal. If that's the case, we will just utilize Santa's red chair, the Christmas backdrop, and your entire family can be a part of the session!
If you missed Santa, or just want a different type of holiday session, there are so many options! From Christmas at home, to Old Town Spring, we will choose the best location for you and your family. Set up a call with Shannon and we can chat more about your portraits, where are you are going to display them, and everyone that will be included!
Q. What if I don't want Santa but do want a holiday theme?
Q. When are Santa Sessions?
With years of expertise, I've designed an elevated, personal, one-of-a-kind experience.
