We know it sounds a little wild, but the holiday season is right around the corner. While the calendar might still say summer, those festive months filled with twinkling lights, cookie decorating, and cheerful parties will be here before you know it. And for us, that also means Santa photo season is about to begin!

At Edward A McGrath Photography, the holidays are one of our favorite times of the year. There’s something magical about capturing moments filled with joy, laughter, and yes—plenty of sparkle. That’s why we’re excited to start scheduling our custom Santa photo sessions and print-on-site holiday events for the upcoming season.

Personalized Santa Photos (With a Little Extra Magic)

We are incredibly fortunate to work with a few wonderful Santas in the area, and together, we’ve created personalized, professional photo experiences for families, businesses, and community groups alike.

Our most popular option involves print-on-site services, where we bring a full professional setup—including lighting, backdrop, and printing equipment—directly to your event. Guests step into the scene, pose for a high-quality photo with Santa, and leave within minutes with a printed photo in hand.

Our print-on-site setup is designed to work for events of all sizes—from cozy community gatherings to large-scale corporate holiday parties. You can customize how the prints are offered:

• Fully Hosted Events: The event host (you or your organization) covers the cost of prints, so every guest leaves with a complimentary keepsake photo.

• Pay-Per-Guest: Guests can purchase their photo for a small, flat rate, making it an affordable souvenir.

No matter the structure, we keep our print prices reasonable and competitive. And when it comes to options, we’ve got you covered. We currently offer several print sizes, including 5x7, 8x10, and a wallet sheet that is perfect for slipping into your Christmas cards.

While the holidays are prime time for Santa photos, our print-on-site setup is perfect for so many other events and is available year-round! 

We often describe print-on-site as a mobile studio. We use professional cameras, studio-grade lighting, and more to produce portrait-quality photos on the spot. Let's bring the photo studio directly to you.

So whether you're planning an event for your company, a seasonal celebration for a community group, or just want to create a special moment with Santa that your guests will never forget—we’d love to be part of it.

Limited Dates, Unlimited Cheer

As you can probably guess, Santa season moves fast. Just like Easter or other seasonal events, there’s a short window when everyone wants to book. That’s why it’s so important to reach out early if you’re considering a Santa session or holiday event with photo coverage.

We want to make sure we have the time, staff, and setup ready to make your event shine—whether that’s in November, early December, or right up to the week of Christmas.

Let’s Make Holiday Magic Happen

If you're hosting an event, managing a venue, or just looking for something unique and joyful to offer your community, reach out to us. We’re happy to talk through the possibilities, offer suggestions, and help you plan something unforgettable.

At Edward A McGrath Photography, we love helping people celebrate the season with warmth, joy, and great photos. And there’s nothing better than watching someone walk away from your event with a big smile and a photo they’ll hang on the fridge for years to come.
