Believe it or not, the Magical Santa Experience at Brittany Elise Photography is right around the corner…
As a full-service portrait studio serving busy families here in Tampa, we know how much time it takes to find the perfect holiday outfits for your little ones (and let’s be honest — for the whole family too!). Let us make it easy.
We’ve created outfit collections (categorized by brand) inspired by this year’s Classic Christmas theme — filled with rich plaids, deep green and cranberry tones, soft knits, corduroy, and velvet details. This years style guide has been thoughtfully curated to reflect the timeless elegance of the season, with pieces that will photograph beautifully on our set. Simply click the images of the looks you love to shop those outfits directly.
At the end of the guide, you’ll also find complete family looks — curated by our team to offer some inspiration when picking outfits for the whole family.
We’re thrilled to share that Luxe Santa sessions are back for the second year! These exclusive sessions allow parents to join in on the full Magical Santa Experience — a truly special opportunity to capture the wonder, warmth, and connection of the season together.
This year’s set brings back the nostalgia of a Classic Christmas — think twinkling lights, evergreen touches, and that unmistakable feeling of holiday magic. We don’t want to give away too much, but when you step through the studio doors, you’ll feel like you’ve been transported straight to the North Pole.
The Magical Santa Experience is one of our favorite events of the year — and once again, it sold out in under three minutes!
If you were one of the lucky families to snag a spot, we cannot wait to see you soon. Now pour yourself a cup of cocoa, scroll through the collections, and start shopping — Christmas magic awaits.
