Arrive at least 15 minutes before your appointment to allow time to watch Father Christmas.<br />2. Give Father Christmas sufficient time to warm up your child.</div><div style="text-align: left;">3. Only ONE adult should stand next to camera to get the attention of your child. Several people only confuse your child.</div><div style="text-align: left;">4. Have fun and be silly. Above all, stay relaxed.</div><div style="text-align: left;">5. Allow Father Christmas’ photographer to help you get fun photos</div><div style="text-align: left;">6. Avoid use of the term, "Smile." Silly adults bring smiles naturally.<br />7. Bring a favorite toy to the photo sitting.<br />8. Bribery sometimes works.</div><div style="text-align: left;">9. Save a Victory 44 treat until after the sitting.</div><div style="text-align: left;">10. Remember, tears are special photo memories, too!</div><br />Friendly Reminder: One family per appointment!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hJDfM27t-yc/TrmkUtNDF5I/AAAAAAAAAGk/li91JdBxXU4/s1600/IMG_7853.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hJDfM27t-yc/TrmkUtNDF5I/AAAAAAAAAGk/li91JdBxXU4/s320/IMG_7853.jpg" width="212" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-mE_TOnC82aQ/Trmke1n3EgI/AAAAAAAAAHE/lkDBDpivYw8/s1600/IMG_7132.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-mE_TOnC82aQ/Trmke1n3EgI/AAAAAAAAAHE/lkDBDpivYw8/s320/IMG_7132.jpg" width="213" /></a></div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hwQkro0U-qA/TrmkhBmRsHI/AAAAAAAAAHM/sdBXk1w5pdc/s1600/IMG_7501.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hwQkro0U-qA/TrmkhBmRsHI/AAAAAAAAAHM/sdBXk1w5pdc/s320/IMG_7501.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_iqKqmV_-Pt0/SPvBQLjdq0I/AAAAAAAAABA/B0i6cBOEo54/s1600-h/DSC08600.JPG" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" height="240" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5259009473608788802" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_iqKqmV_-Pt0/SPvBQLjdq0I/AAAAAAAAABA/B0i6cBOEo54/s320/DSC08600.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: lime; font-size: x-large;"><b>Merry Christmas to all!
