Questions

Good to know

Santa is at Studio24.7 on Fridays 14:00 to 21:00 (Cresta on 20 November, 4 and 18 December; Fourways on 27 November and 11 December), and Saturdays, Sundays and 21 to 24 December at Fourways 08:00 to 13:00 and Cresta 14:30 to 21:00. Book one of those days and add Santa when you choose your add-ons.

How much is a Christmas photoshoot in Johannesburg at Studio24.7?

Our Christmas packages start with the Christmas Mini at R997, or R1,497 with Santa. Prices are the same every day. See all five Christmas packages and book online on this page.

Can we book a Christmas photoshoot without Santa?

Yes. Christmas photoshoots are available every day at the same price. Santa is in the studio on Fridays 14:00 to 21:00 (Cresta on 20 November, 4 and 18 December; Fourways on 27 November and 11 December), and Saturdays, Sundays and 21 to 24 December at Fourways 08:00 to 13:00 and Cresta 14:30 to 21:00.

Can siblings share a booking?

Yes. Your Christmas package covers the number of people it lists (up to 3, 5, 7 or 15 people), and every child in your booking can meet Santa together. For a bigger group, choose a bigger package.

Can parents join the photos?

Yes. Parents count towards the people your package includes, so the whole family can be in the photos with Santa.

What should we wear?

Christmas colours, matching outfits or Christmas pyjamas all look beautiful, and you can buy or rent matching family Christmas pyjamas from us. Choose something comfortable for the kids.

What if our child is nervous around Santa?

That is completely normal. Tell us in your booking and Santa will take it slowly. Your child can sit on your lap, watch Santa first or simply wave from a distance, and we will capture those moments too.

When will we receive our photos and personalised video?

After your shoot you receive a preview gallery and choose your favourites. Your edited photos are ready within 7 working days of your selection. Your personalised Santa video arrives by WhatsApp and email within 7 working days, and we can make it before or after your shoot.

Which keepsakes are available immediately?

Keepsakes are made with the photo you choose from your gallery, so they are not ready on the day. Once you have your gallery, order prints, baubles or Christmas cards in our Christmas Keepsakes shop and collect them at your branch 7 working days later.

What happens if we arrive late or need to reschedule?

If you arrive late, your shoot runs for the time left in your booked slot. You can reschedule up to 15 days before your shoot date, but not on the day itself. Payments are non-refundable.

Where is each branch, and where do we park?

Studio24.7 Cresta is in Hillcrest Shopping Centre, Cresta, Randburg (corner Judges Avenue and Beyers Naudé Drive), with free parking. Studio24.7 Fourways is at Block 3, Unit 9, Riversands Incubation Hub, 8 Incubation Drive, Fourways, with parking on site.

Is the studio wheelchair friendly?

Studio24.7 Fourways is wheelchair friendly. Studio24.7 Cresta does not have wheelchair access, so if anyone in your family uses a wheelchair, please book at Fourways.
