Brenham Portrait Gallery is excited to be celebrating 28 years of making spirits bright with the real Santa! Every November and December, Santa visits Hermann Furniture in downtown Brenham to talk with the kids and take photos. Our one-pose Santa portraits are a quick and easy way to give your child a special moment with Santa and preserve your Christmas memories for years to come.
Whether they’re a five-day-old baby, a 25-year-old college graduate, or a 65-year-young grandparent, no one is too young or old for a photo with Santa! We are proud to be part of yearly Christmas traditions for hundreds of families throughout Texas, and all our customers agree that this is the real Santa.
Fun Facts: Christmas 2024 we photographed over 3000 children representing 1800 families coming from 125 different cities and towns from all across Texas. People drove from Austin, Dallas, San Antonio, Houston, Midland, Palacios—and everywhere in between to come see the real Santa!
We know the holidays are a busy time for everyone, so we make the process as stress-free as possible. We avoid lines with appointments, and we choose the best image for your order so you have more time to focus on making Christmas memories. Unlike at the mall, each photo gets individualized attention from Scott, Gloria, and some of our girls throughout the photography process, from working to capture your child’s genuine smile to quality-checking the prints when they come back from our professional lab.
