Don’t Delay!!
Were You “Caught”?
From time to time, while Santa is out taking a break from his duties at the North Pole, he notices children who are being especially good! When this happens, Santa will give them this card:
Have you, or someone you know, received this card? Santa would LOVE to hear from you! Send Santa an email at SantaRalphKy@gmail.com … write me any questions you may have or just say hello to Santa and we can stay in touch!
Stay Nice!
Catching Up!
Well, ho, ho hello again, everyone! It’s been a while since I’ve written-but duty called! Last month, the elves came back from their well-deserved vacation and began preparations for Christmas 2019. And of course, I had to be there to make sure everything was back up and running smoothly. Let me tell you, if what I saw was any indication, this coming Christmas will be the best one yet!
Where was I before I left…oh, yes, telling you about some of the best photographers in the area! Timber and Twine Photography is another one of my very favorites! Samantha Reed is a delightful photographer, and she captured many magical moments during a neighborhood party. She was good with the children – very important in my opinion! – and made everyone feel special. In addition to the more formal photos, Samantha captured some spontaneous moments that are priceless!
If you are looking for a quality photographer in the central Kentucky area, be sure to check out Timber and Twine Photography. Tell her Santa sent you!
Custom Photography by Kat!
Picture this (get it?): Santa walks into the YMCA Christmas Ball. A huge crowd is there, ready to dance the night away. There, in the lobby, is one very professional looking photography setup. At the helm of all this is Kat Palma, Professional Photographer out of Lexington, Kentucky, and as Santa soon found out, another one of the ‘greats’.
Throughout the evening, many of the over 800 guests stood in line, waiting to have their picture taken with Santa and Mrs. Claus, some even going through more than once! Kat was unflappable – making sure each guest got the perfect photo. Kat’s elves were nearby, printing out each photo so everyone could take a copy home!
I like a statement on Kat’s website: she refers to herself as a ‘stealth’ photographer – “…catching the moment when others are not watching. Providing my clients with beautiful images that freeze a moment in time for them to cherish for a lifetime is why I do this work”.
Kat, I know ALL the attendees at the YMCA Christmas Ball will cherish their images forever!
Progressive Photography – A Central Kentucky Gem!
Santa was fortunate to work with several fine photographers this season! You know, if you have a good photographer, everyone looks good, Santa’s job is a little bit easier, and families have wonderful photos to share with others.
If you have a “Great” photographer, not only is the photography wonderful, but the families have an incredible experience that becomes a treasured memory. Myles Young with Progressive Photography is one of the ‘greats’. He and his elves offered the “Santa Experience” to their customers. Children (of all ages) were able to fill out a wish list, visit with Santa and talk about what they would like to get, and GIVE, for Christmas. All the while, Myles was taking dozens of outstanding spontaneous and posed photos.
If you have the opportunity, don’t pass up the chance to work with Myles and the fine folks at Progressive Photography. Maybe Santa will see you at the next Santa Experience!
A Wonderful Season!
My oh my!! What an incredible Christmas season it was! Santa was able to spend time with so many of his friends, and the “Nice” list was longer than it’s ever been!
The elves outdid themselves this year, and the reindeer nailed all their take-offs and landings!
And the cookies….oh, the cookies were DELICIOUS!
While most of us at the North Pole are still enjoying our ‘long winter’s nap’, Santa wanted to be able to give big ‘thank yous’ to some of the fine folk who helped make this Christmas season extraordinary. So, over the next few days, I’ll be writing about them, and perhaps, if you see them during the year, you can add your thanks as well!

Thoughts from Santa’s Workshop
Santa shares some important thoughts during this special season.
Jackson’s Red Golf Ball
Recently Santa was able to visit with his good friend Jackson. Jackson has been on Santa’s Nice list since his very first Christmas!
Earlier this year, Jackson was playing putt-putt golf at Disney World – it is one of Santa’s favorites because it has a beautiful Christmas theme! Jackson had a great time throughout the whole course and really loved his red golf ball!
On the 18th hole, Jackson’s red golf ball went into the hole for the last time. But Jackson did not get his ball back!! After thinking about it, Jackson decided that since it was a Christmas golf course, the ball had traveled all the way to Santa at the North Pole. And he was right!
Santa knew he would be seeing Jackson soon, and when they got together, Jackson and his red golf ball were reunited!!
