Overview

CENTEX Santa Claus-I am a real bearded Santa and will come spread the Christmas Magic for you, your family or event. I love to rotate around the party and interact with everyone, being my jovial, jolly self! This helps to get some great selfies and even capture some pictures with those kiddos who are afraid at first. I am booking Family photo sessions with Santa Claus for your Christmas cards and letters! These are best for October. How about a personal visit to drop off your Elf on a Shelf for the season or pick it up after Christmas? I am jovial, friendly, and have a twinkle in my eye straight from the North Pole! Let's book a visit to remember! ~~John S. CENTEX Santa Claus

Wonderful experience!

The perfect Santa Claus! he is so good with kids and I love that when folks weren't coming up to him to take pictures, he walked around and got folks to engage. Even with crummy weather, he was willing to go the extra mile to make everyone's experience magical! Can't wait to have him back next year!

Influences and inspiration

Miracle on 34th Street, Santa Claus: The Movie, The Santa Clause movies, A Christmas Carol (all versions but the George C Scott version is the best!) and many other movies featuring Santa Claus. I love everything about Christmas, Christmas music, and all of the celebrations with family, co-workers and friends.

Setup requirements

If I am taking pictures, a sturdy bench or chair is preferred
