Rated 5 out of 5

I didn’t think I’d ever get a photo of our youngest with Santa. Over the years we had tried to take her along with her older siblings to the shopping centre Santa, and even during the ‘Sensitive Santa’ sessions she was totally overwhelmed. She couldn’t understand anything that anyone was saying, the sensory overload of the lights, the passing shoppers, other families and bells ringing would lead to meltodwns. It was so traumatic for her that we just gave up.
When Karen from Story Art posted that she was doing Christmas photos from the Story Art Studio with ‘Virtual Santa’ I knew it would be an amazing opportunity. As we arrived for our session, my youngest was struggling, but in her calm and gentle way, Karen gave each of my children the time that they needed to feel comfortable. The end result is one of our family’s most treasured items. It is up on our wall all year round because of the joy it brings us all. We cannot thank Karen enough.

Oh my heart, the end images were just divine! You are so ridiculously talented.
I cried tears of joy. Our first image of our son and Santa, and it is so beautiful, he looks so peaceful and happy. A piece of art, a moment in time captured, to be treasured always. How can we ever thank you Karen?
Karen you made this process so relaxed and very easy for us all, from the moment of booking. You gave our son the space and time to be himself, the environment was quiet and clean, you never rushed him. He was therefore able to relax and follow instructions. You have a such a huge heart, showed so much compassionate and understanding.
