Santa Albert is engaging, warm, funny and
OH SO authentic! From his gorgeous suit with embossed leather belt & REAL beard, to his mannerisms, Ho Ho Ho’s & stories… all the way down to his boots! For the cherry on top, Santa’s carved throne definitely sets the tone! ✨From the moment he enters your home (with bells from his sleigh) he will have your family captured in Christmas magic. ✨
A truly wonderful experience! Thank you for the many years of memories, Santa Albert! 🎄♥️
Santa Albert is the best Santa by far. I have 2 sons on the spectrum and 2 teenagers. He does a great presentation reading to the kids from "a night before christmas" then he does poses with each child asking them what they want for christmas. He does the best poses with my 2 autistic boys. Even when they are not the best at sitting still. I adore Santa Albert and that's why we have hired him 7 years in a row. Great prices too. He also allows us to take as many pics as we can with our own phones.
