Where To Get Your Pet’s Photo With Santa In Edmonton 2024?

Where To Get Your Pet’s Holiday Photo In Edmonton and Area?

The holiday season is a magical time of year, and what better way to celebrate than with a delightful photo of your furry friend with Santa? Many holiday photo shoots start popping up in November, and there are still plenty of opportunities throughout December to capture that perfect moment of your pet perched on Santa’s lap! We update this list as we see more Photo opts pop up so check back if you need a specific day or reach out to be added to the list.

Some holiday photo sessions aim to raise funds for local rescues and charities, while others are offered for a fee. Be sure to choose the option that suits your family best. Either way, it’s a wonderful opportunity to embrace the festive spirit with the entire family! Just imagine the joy on your friends’ and family members’ faces when they receive a Christmas card featuring your adorable pet!

To help you out, we’ve compiled a list of organizations in Edmonton and area offering holiday photo shoots. Be sure to check out their Facebook pages or websites for more details, including:

Exact dates and times
Whether you need to book a session in advance or if walk-ins are welcome
Whether the sessions require a donation or have a set price

How to Get Your Pet Ready for the Photo Shoot:
Practice Makes Perfect: Familiarize your pet with the idea of sitting still for a photo. Practice short sessions at home to help them get comfortable.
Grooming Time: Give your pet a fresh groom before the shoot. A clean coat and trimmed nails will make a big difference in how they look in photos.
Choose the Right Outfit: If your pet tolerates clothing, consider a festive outfit or accessories like a holiday bandana or a Santa hat to add some cheer!
Bring Their Favorite Toy: A beloved toy can help grab your pet’s attention and encourage them to look towards the camera.
Stay Calm and Positive: Your energy can affect your pet’s behavior, so remain calm and upbeat during the shoot. Reward them with treats for good behaviour!

With these tips in mind, you and your pet will be all set to create some magical holiday memories. Check out our list of local spots to get that perfect picture with Santa!
