For photographer Nicole Higgins of Eva Higgins Photography in Pelzer, South Carolina, a Santa was a must for her holiday photo shoot session. With the help of GigMasters, Nicole was able to hire [Santa David](https://www.gigmasters.com/santa-claus/santa-david1) to make all  of her photos jolly and bright! Keep scrolling for a glimpse of the festive pics.  ![](https://itg.thebash.com/hs-fs/hubfs/IMG_20181104_131308_674.jpg?width=300&name=IMG_20181104_131308_674.jpg) Nicole shared, “Santa David is FANTASTIC! He worked with me for several photo sessions and he is incredible with kids! His patience, kindness, and energy show so well and the children LOVED him. I had parents telling me that their children talked about the photo session with Santa for hours. I will most certainly be booking him again :)" ![](https://itg.thebash.com/hs-fs/hubfs/FB_IMG_1541391201372.jpg?width=500&name=FB_IMG_1541391201372.jpg) [David Risher](https://www.gigmasters.com/santa-claus/santa-david1); the magical man behind Santa David, is a Santa Claus based out of Greenville, South Carolina. With an overall rating of 5 stars on GigMasters, Santa David’s uncanny resemblance and holly-jolly demeanor makes him the perfect fit for any holiday event (not just pictures!). By making each child feel special and each experience different, it was no surprise that the kids wouldn’t stop talking about him hours after they left! ![](https://itg.thebash.com/hs-fs/hubfs/FB_IMG_1541391197816.jpg?width=500&name=FB_IMG_1541391197816.jpg) *As a photographer, I am always looking for ways to make each session special for the families and kids that I work with. Having Santa come to my studio was the highlight of this season and I couldn't have selected a better Santa. Santa David is AMAZING! I hired him for 7 hours of back-to-back sessions (we did 16 sessions together in one day)! From the first session to the last, he made each child feel special. The parents have been raving about him and the kids talked about their session with Santa for hours afterward.* **- Nicole Higgins, Eva Higgins Photography ** ![](https://itg.thebash.com/hs-fs/hubfs/FB_IMG_1541391204115.jpg?width=500&name=FB_IMG_1541391204115.jpg) Thanks for sharing your story, Nicole!  If you're looking for a Santa to make your holiday season unforgettable, let GigMasters help!
