Disclosure: Pixels by Emily is an ad partner on Indy with Kids. We only partner with the best opportunities and we know you’ll love this.
As you can imagine, I feel like we’ve done it all when it comes to celebrating the holidays with our kids. As they’re getting older, I’m interested in activities that will not only feel magical but will capture those memories in a little capsule that we can all look back on someday.
This year, we’re headed to Mahomet for a one-of-a-kind activity that checks all of the boxes! I’ve booked our session and you’ll want to book yours quickly because there are only a few sessions available this season.
The “Magical Santa Experience” by Pixels by Emily offers a unique and immersive holiday experience for families, blending traditional elements with modern photography to create lasting memories. The 45-minute sessions are designed to captivate children with an enchanting visit to Santa Claus. The experience begins with a warm welcome, as children enjoy milk and cookies with Santa, setting a cozy and inviting atmosphere.
Children will receive a Golden Ticket invitation in the mail prior to your experience and then the adventure begins! During your session, your children will engage with Santa uninterrupted, making the experience feel personal and magical.
During their session, your children will experience the magic of all the following:
Milk and Cookies with Santa
Telling Santa their wish list
Storytime with Santa
Finding their name on the Nice List
Tales of the North Pole and story of the Reindeer
Reindeer Calling Bells
Wish list transport to the elves at the North Pole using Santa’s Magic Box
Wooden toy painting with “magic” paint
Searching the globe with Santa to find home
Vintage small bottle of Coca-Cola in the toy shop scene (optional)
Santa’s call to the elves
Gifts from Santa
The standout feature of the Magical Santa Experience is the photography session, where the photographer, Emily, captures moments in a style reminiscent of Norman Rockwell’s nostalgic art. These portraits are not just simple photographs but are crafted to be timeless pieces of art, perfect for creating heirlooms that families can cherish for years to come. The focus is on capturing genuine emotions and interactions, ensuring that each image tells a story and reflects the joy and wonder of the holiday season.
The experience is designed to be intimate, with sessions available for siblings and the option to include cousins or friends. This allows families to enjoy the experience together and create shared memories. Following the session, families are invited to an ordering appointment, where they can select their favorite images and decide how they would like to display them. The range of products includes prints, albums, and other heirloom-quality pieces, allowing families to find the perfect way to showcase their holiday memories.
The Magical Santa Experience by Pixels by Emily is more than just a photo session; it’s a carefully curated holiday experience that combines storytelling, imagination, and professional photography. It offers a unique opportunity for families to immerse themselves in the magic of Christmas, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
