Families can reserve a time slot online or simply walk up; reserving avoids waiting in line on busy weekends. The visit is a sit-down photo session with Santa, and the photos are sold in packages: Basic, Standard, Premium and Elite, which differ in the number of prints, digital images and digital greeting cards (the Elite package adds a third pose). Every reserved package also comes with a personalized video message from Santa and a Shutterfly discount. Santa's hours change from day to day, so check the reservation page for the slots on the day you want to go. Scottsdale Quarter's tree lighting (Nov 28) and toy-drive night (Dec 4) take place in the same courtyard, if you want to combine a Santa visit with one of them. ## Similar picks in Phoenix - [Photos with Santa — Kierland Commons](https://grassyknees.com/phoenix/activities/photos-with-santa-kierland-commons--listing-0378ef068ab1a916a6a082da) — Nov 20 – Dec 24 · Kierland Commons — Center Plaza, Scottsdale · All ages · Free · checked Oct 21.
