Our Santa
Our Santa is amazing, very authentic (real belly and beard!) and really really loves talking to the children. Depending on how crowded it is, your child can spend some real time chatting with Santa! If it is particularly crowded, we do have to help Santa move groups along, because he will talk to his new friends all day!
Pictures with Santa - Information
We are so pleased to welcome Santa back to the Christkindl Market this year!
Photos with Santa are $25 per visit

All Photos Are Taken With YOUR Phone or Camera
The Atlanta Christkindl Market Does not provide a photographer. There is NO professional photographer. You get to take your own photos with your phone, camera, or other device and take them with you immediately!
There is a staff or volunteer who can take your group photo with your phone or camera and we also take a photo with our Polaroid camera as a keepsake!
Photo sessions are a fundraiser for the German American Cultural Foundation. Proceeds go to The German School of Atlanta and to Zentrum Goethe Institute in Atlanta.
