At Always Remember Photography, our Magical Santa Sessions in Pittsburgh and Mars, PA are designed as a storybook adventure. While our main focus on each session is your child’s experience with Santa, we always take a moment to invite parents to step into the story for at least one timeless portrait. Some families choose to be part of two or three enchanting moments—snuggled in matching pajamas, sharing cookies, or watching the magic unfold together.
For little ones who may feel unsure at first, the presence of Mom and Dad—snuggled close in matching pajamas or thoughtfully coordinated outfits—can make all the difference. Parents are invited to join their children during those early moments with Santa, offering comfort and familiarity while keeping the portraits timeless and beautifully cohesive. Each Santa Storybook Album is custom written by me, allowing the story to gently shift and reflect these tender beginnings. As children begin to feel safe, relaxed, and full of joy, parents can quietly step back, savoring the moment as the magic unfolds before them. If you have little ones and would like to learn more about our Magical Santa Sessions, you can find more details on our Santa Experience page.
When parents slip into the scene, whether in holiday pajamas or coordinating outfits, the session transforms. It’s no longer just a Santa visit—it becomes a storybook moment, frozen in time through fine art portraits and heirloom albums. Every giggle, every hug, every tiny sparkle of wonder is captured, creating memories that will warm your heart year after year.
These images are often included in the Santa Storybook Album, because years from now, it’s often the photograph with Mom and Dad beside them that children cherish most. More than just a holiday portrait, it becomes a lasting reminder that you were part of the magic they believed in—preserving not only the wonder of Santa, but the love and togetherness of this season.
Whether you prefer your session to just be about the children, one cherished family portrait at the end or want to be part of several magical moments, our Magical Santa Sessions near Cranberry Township and Mars are tailored to make your family’s Christmas story feel as cozy and whimsical as it can be.
Only an average of 30 families are welcomed into our studio each year, ensuring every twinkling light, every tiny detail, and every smile is perfectly captured.
