The Magic Of Christmas Mini Sessions
The Flash Lady Photography offers private Santa Experience and Family Christmas sessions that take place in my beautifully decorated Newington studio, where your family gets undivided attention in an intimate setting. Without the crowds and distractions of a public event, kids have the space to warm up naturally and enjoy the experience at their own pace.
Custom Christmas Mini Sessions
Booking is NOW OPEN for the 2026 Season! Our 2026 theme is “Christmas Nostalgia” – a warm, inviting, vintage styled scene straight from your Grandmother’s living room. With a 1950s & 1960s design base, and multiple generations featured throughout, you’ll be taken back to a simpler time to enjoy family and togetherness with lots of special details.
Sessions take place at my Newington, CT studio on select dates throughout the holiday season. We offer The Santa Experience, Family Christmas Photos, and VIP Christmas Sessions for both types. Our Custom set is designed exclusively for these sessions. Christmas cards and photo gifts are available to order.
These sessions have become a holiday tradition for many Connecticut families. WFSB has even featured The Flash Lady Photography for our Christmas photography.
