Santa photos in Westlake Village.
Santa photos start at a photo-op station with Santa and Mrs. Claus seated for pictures under a holiday backdrop. Santa photos in Westlake Village are booked inside a larger event, and the sections below describe how the set is built, how a line can run through it and what a host can place around it.
Hosts in Westlake Village have the Civic Center, Westlake Village Community Park, Russell Ranch Park, Berniece Bennett Park and Three Springs Park to ask about, plus campuses in the Las Virgenes Unified School District. A lot, a lawn or a courtyard can hold the station once the owner confirms the date.
Carnival Fun Experts provides the Clauses, the sleigh set and the arch, and builds the event around the station.
A Santa station set up in Westlake Village.
The set has four parts: a wooden sleigh, Santa and Mrs. Claus seated in it, a red, green and white balloon arch with peppermint and patterned balloons overhead, and a Christmas Carnival sign with a harlequin backdrop behind. Families queue up to the sleigh and take their pictures on their own phones, one group at a time, and the next group waits beside the arch. A host who would rather have someone else take them can add the photographer Carnival Fun Experts offers.
Siting is the host's decision, and the host can change it while the layout is still being drawn. A host can walk the site with the venue contact ahead of the date and mark a spot for the sleigh. At a park, the set can end a row of booths. At the Civic Center or another civic lot, the host picks a corner after the venue confirms the space. At an HOA common area, the set can stand beside a few booths, and the board's own volunteers can manage the queue. The line can be first-come or called forward in small groups by the host's volunteers, and a few game booths with a concession booth beside the line give guests something to do. Santa comes only inside an event, and the smallest custom event Carnival Fun Experts quotes begins around $1,500.
