Part of the getting into the holiday spirit is having your photo taken with Santa and this year he's returned to Gloucester for another session.

As has been the tradition for the past few years, Santa comes into town and families get all dressed up to have their photo snapped with him, with a financial donation from monies raised going to support a worthy cause.

This year is no exception, Sharon Benson Photography has again set up a few session options for people to book in, with Santa donating funds to the drought relief.

Sharon likes to get a little bit creative when organising the photo shoot with the big man, making sure that he’s always interested in coming back to Gloucester.

Last year, she introduced an outdoor photo session option for something a little different, as well as providing the chance for people to have their family pet included.

“I’ve done a rural theme this year,” Sharon said. “And will be having the bike in the park again.”

Santa photo session times are:

Friday afternoons from 3pm – 5pm on December 7 and 14 at Nanna Homewares and Antiques, 25 Church Street. 

Saturday mornings from 9am – noon on December 8 and 15 at Nanna Homewares and Antiques, 25 Church Street. 

Sunday mornings from 10am – noon on December 9 and 16 at Nanna Homewares and Antiques, 25 Church Street. 

Sunday afternoons from 4pm – 6pm on December 9 and 16 outdoors in Gloucester District Park.
