Looking for a fun, classic Australian Christmas photo that the whole family (including the dog) will love? You’ve found it!
BUT…our 2023 Christmas photos have now finished!
Our 2023 bookings are done and dusted….and what a year it was! Thank you to everyone who joined us for the beautiful sunny days - and braved the rainy ones too. Santa Ken was an absolute champ dealing with temperatures up to 40’c, with various outfit changes to match. We absolutely loved taking your photos this year, and can’t wait to do it all over again in 2024 - bigger and better again!
Bookings are usually snapped up within 24 hours when we open in early October each year. To find out when 2024 bookings open, join the waitlist.
