SANTA Came to Circle C Town! {Austin Event Photography}

Last month, I had the fun task of photographing Santa and all the great Circle C kids here in Austin.  It was so much fun, and so entertaining to watch their reaction to him.  Some kids went straight up to him, hopped up onto his lap like he was their best friend, and had no reservations about it.  Others were very shy - but pushed through it.  And there were a few that just plain "weren't havin' it."  I've found that those make the most hilarious shots to capture!  (See below for an example.)

In the week leading up to the event, my little Miles was all about sitting on Santa's lap and telling him he was wishing for a swing set and slide for Christmas.  Well, that was until he walked into the room and saw Santa.  There was no sitting on his lap, but he did let me hold him and he did confidently and sweetly ask Santa for his wishlist.  Maybe next year he will be a little more familiar with Santa and sit on his lap with baby Sister.  We shall see about that one.

Enjoy some of the sweet shots from our morning together!

Little man slept right through his first visit with Santa!  

Does this not make you laugh?!  Look at the baby's face... but even funnier is SANTA's face!




Here is little Miles saying, "Cheeeeeeeeeeese."  

The petting zoo was a hit!
