Response from Santa RW:
Dave Dabour is an independent photograph in NWNJ communities and he has a great mobile camera setup. His old barn wood background was perfect for Santa photos this season at a faith community brunch. His setup also allows you to see the photo he is capturing while it's happening, very cool indeed. If you need on the spot photos that deliver at the event, check out his website! Santa RW Couple highly recommends!
We had Santa RW and Mrs. Santa RW visit our office to surprise our employees and their families. Santa RW is absolutely wonderful, especially with kids. We had some kids who needed extra time to warm up, but immediately fell in love with Santa - and also Mrs. Santa RW. Communication beforehand was quick and easy, Mrs. Santa RW knew exactly how to guide us in making this event extra special. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Merry Christmas.

Mr & Mrs were such a hit at our holiday party again this year, as we had them back from the second year in a row. These two go above and beyond to wow the kids and make the experience magical. From their phenomenal attire, to their cheery demeanor and kind words, the kids just love them. As do the adults! Santa read a delightful rendition of 'Twas the night before Christmas, followed by giving out gifts to all the kids, photo op for everyone including adults, and then leading the crowd in singing popular carols to my brother playing on piano. They even take the time to learn some special things about the kids to really make the experience magical☺️We were so happy to have them back for our annual party, and look forward to next year!
Holiday Entertainment, Mrs. Claus, Santa Claus
Response from Santa RW:
Justine & family... Your help with Santa Knows & planning helps us bring surprise! Thank YOU for sharing your family with us! Singing carols with your family is very special part of our visit.

I will say that overall, Santa Ricky and his wife did an amazing job for our venue. We hosted two brunch events at our hotel and booked Santa Ricky RW for both. From the adults to all the children, we received such warm and positive feedback. I even had my employee of 17 yrs. tell me this is the best Santa he has experienced at the hotel. Santa Ricky and his wife ensure all who attend enjoy their interactions. They would have reading time with the children and interact with each and every guest which made the overall event a success. Santa and his wife were extremely professional from start to finish and we will be sure to invite they back next year! Happy Holidays to all!

Well, Santa Ricky and his helper were just so amazing. They showed up very promptly and were very accommodating. And Santa Ricky is a GREAT Santa .. no fake beard and the Ho Ho Ho is perfect. All my guest - kids and adults! - loved our surprise. He posed with anyone that wanted a picture, made sure to go around to all the children and even read them a story. It really put a smile on my husband and I's faces to have him at our event. He will make your event just that much more special so don't hesitate in booking him!

Is he REAL? Yes! NJ, he is real! Just look at that real white beard. From the moment you see those blue eyes and white whiskers, you know throughout the year that this is a REAL Santa! He's also a member of the International Brotherhood of Real Beard Santas (IBRBS). Santa RW has the unique ability to bring memorable moments to your family, friends, colleagues and guests. Let us know what makes Christmas special to you and, whether it's a visit in the intimate setting of your home or a larger venue at a country club, hotel, beach parties, tree lighting ceremony and more, we can help capture the essence of Christmas. He listens to your children’s wish-list, reads stories interactively, and merrily leads sing-alongs.
Santa RW also has a literary and artistic side; he wrote the story Seashell Santas which Mrs Santa is the designer and independent publisher. This book is available in print and ebook on Amazon, Indiebound, and expanded distribution channels.

Additional Booking Notes
* Fireplace: Santa gets HOT when not in the North Pole... Be KIND and turn off your ambient fireplace so you can have a warm glow with out the heat during his visit. PSA: Please remember to keep your fireplace & chimney clean to prevent fires for Santa's sake!
* Lighting & Ambiance. Plan the setting & lighting you want to capture great photographs! Before the visit be sure to check your lighting with your camera & photo devices. You might switch out bulbs with LED for brighter photos.
* Photography: Santa RW (Real Whiskers) permits you & your guest to take photos on your devices; unless you hire an event photographer. The event or venue photographer will probably NOT permit individual or family photos on your own camera &/or devise. Please keep this in mind when planning your event.
* Staging an area to have a picture perfect is so amazing! A great reason to choose a home or special venue office for feature photographs. Great for Christmas Cards and sharing with family reunions.

Set List
1. Gifts... Let us know if you'd like Santa to put your gifts into his pack before his grand entrance; or if you will have gifts with tags placed under the tree for his to distribute. Santa will also hand out a small gift after the photo visit with each child... keep in mind that it might be special & more meaningful to give each child a little jingle bell rather than a candy cane. We tend to think that some that makes music &/or merrymaking is very NICE so the children can be joyful!
2. Storytime with Santa RW... Santa RW likes to encourage reading! He offers a variety of books that could make your visit very special. Let us know if you would like a favorite poem, letter, or story read. Even if you think this can be missed; let Santa surprise you & your guest!. He also has an inspirational & inter-generational story set along the seashore, Seashell Santas that may be available esp if you have a tropical setting.
3. Sing-Along with Santa RW... When booking, please let us know if you have a special Christmas song that your family, staff &/or friends love. Santa enjoys surprising young & young-at-heart guests. This song is also a cue that Santa must be departing on his way... So make sure any details are taken care of when everyone stands to send Santa off in a merry & jolly way! ps Santa loves a cookie or treat for the sleigh-ride!
Influences & Inspiration
Seashell Santas began one sunrise as we were beachcombing... When I noticed shells with whiskers like mine! I washed them up and began to paint them into Santas... Now I like to entertain with my transformation & intergenerational story... Where we stroll by the sea, paint shells, or evening story time... I'd like to help surprise & delight your family, friends, colleagues... Perfect for marriage retreats, family reunions, beach vacations, Christmas year round, beach & tiki parties. I also portray St Nicholas, Patron Saint of Seaports and Protector of children; and Santa Claus.
