Client Testimonials

If you are looking for a fun and unique experience that is not rushed and very authentic, look no further than Magic Makers Studio.

  • - Jennifer D.

Seeing my kids actually getting to spend a little time with Santa brought tears to my eyes. Previous years we've just gone to the mall. You only have like 5 minutes with the big guy which is not near enough time for little ones to warm up at all.

  • - Holly M.

It was a wonderful experience! Plus we have irreplaceable and priceless memories with the pictures and book we purchased!

  • - Marlene C.

Gone are the long lines, the rushed atmosphere, and the forced smiles. Instead, we create a space where laughter, wonder, and genuine expressions reign supreme.

Dad! He knows about Elfie!

We start by gathering important information from you when you book your session. Each client provides details "ONLY SANTA WOULD KNOW" so the big man can bring them up during the session. Santa will ask how their dog "Jesse" is doing, he will ask about "Elfie" the elf on the shelf and he will even ask if they are enjoying the new "bike" (or whatever gift he brought them last year).
