Tips & Advice

  • Reserve your family's appointment ahead of time, because Santa at Hay House runs for only two days.
  • If your group has more than four children, book a second time slot so everyone fits in.
  • Budget for extra prints if you want more than the one professional 4x6 photo each child receives.
  • Use the small lot behind Hay House off Georgia Avenue and Spring Street, or take a street spot in front of the house.
