We never want your family to feel like this is a business transaction. It is our hearts' desire to make this a memorable family tradition and we are honored to be part of your family's Holiday Season.
That being said, we should talk about the business end of things now so your visit is all about the joy of visiting Southern Santa's Workshop.
In the 2024 season we were very relaxed about our photography policy. We incurred very few issues and wish to continue letting our visitors use their own cameras and phones. This makes things so much easier to control and allows each family to share as much or as little as they wish.
With this in mind we do have a new approach to how we will handle your photography needs.
We regret having to put this on our website, however due to a lack of consideration by a few guests in the past, we have had to make this section part of our business communication. We sincerely appreciate your support and understanding.
