Santa Claus is the name of a specific person, so it is a proper noun.
All pictures and photographs--of anyone--is just a representation of that person. The person is real, just like Santa Claus is real.
Santa Claus is not a real person
The real Saint Nikolas was in the Netherlands. His wife would have called him Nikolas or in her own language possibly an endearing term like dear, husband, Nick or sweetie.
They are the same person, "Santa" is a nickname (no pun intended). It comes from the German "Santa Claus" where Claus is a nickname for Nicholas.
Mrs. Claus is usually the person, although lots of people kiss him on the cheek.
