The experience

Don't pose in front of Christmas. Step inside it.

A 256" LED wall

Floor-to-ceiling scenes in real light and true color. The glow falls on you, so every photo looks like you were really there.

A real set in front of it

Trees, a sofa, blankets, gifts and props put you inside the scene, not in front of a printed backdrop.

Photos in 15 minutes

Your edited, high-resolution photos arrive by private link, usually before you reach the car.

Carols, and Santa if you like

Christmas music sets the mood from the moment you arrive. Santa, the Grinch and friends join on request.

A first look

An idea of the day.

The real studio is revealed only on the day of your session. Until then, here is the idea we are building toward.

An idea of the studio: studio lights around a cream sofa, Christmas trees and gifts in front of the LED wall showing a fireplace and a snowy windowIdea, not the final set

The kind of portrait we aim forA representation of the style, not a photo from a session. Every family, set and light is different, so your photos won't look exactly like this.

One wall, six worlds

The background changes. The magic doesn't.

Each day the 256-inch wall shows a different world, and its light falls on you like the real thing.

On the LED wall: The North Pole, Santa's Village

Friday, Nov 13

The North Pole

Images are concept previews. The final set, props and scenes may change, and themes can be adjusted to the backgrounds available.

Themed days

Pick your day. We set the backdrops with you.

Every day has its own scenes. On set we choose the backdrops together and switch them in seconds while you stay put.

The North Pole

Santa's village, the elves' workshop and a sleigh ride above the snow.

The backgrounds shown are a suggestion. On the day we will probably adjust them slightly so they sit right in the proportions of your photos.

Dreaming of a different background? Ask when you send your request. With enough notice we may be able to prepare it; otherwise we work with that day's scenes.

Photo Video

Your photographer

Wildnei Queiroz

Wildnei started behind the camera in 2010, in a university TV studio in São Paulo, and went on to broadcast camera crews and freelance video for news, sports, social and corporate events. Hundreds of productions later, Wildnei now photographs Atlanta families and is certified in Family & Group Portraiture.

That studio background is why this set is lit like a production. Every session is directed personally, with easy posing for kids, grandparents and pups alike, and every image is edited by hand before it reaches your link.

Keepsakes

Before you book

Good questions.

When are the sessions?

Two weekends only, Friday to Sunday: November 13-15 and November 20-22, 2026. Fridays and Saturdays run from 1 PM to 8 PM, Sundays from 9 AM to 6 PM.

We're a big family. Can each household have its own photos?

Yes - that is what the Gathering Session is for. In 60 minutes each household takes its own turn on set, then everyone comes together for the big group portrait. Tell us how many households are coming and we plan the turns with you.

What is the LED wall?

A 256-inch LED panel behind the set. It shows the scene in real light and true color, so the glow falls on you and looks real in every photo. Trees, a sofa, blankets and props stand in front of it, so you are inside the scene, not in front of a printed backdrop.

Will the set look exactly like the pictures?

No - the pictures are ideas. The real studio is revealed on the day, and the family portrait on this page shows the kind of photo we aim for, not a promise of that exact image. Images are concept previews. The final set, props and scenes may change, and themes can be adjusted to the backgrounds available.

Do I choose my backdrops?

Not ahead of time. Each day has its own theme on the LED wall: a Classic session uses 2 of its scenes, a Signature 3 and a Gathering all of them, and we switch them in seconds while you stay on set. The backgrounds shown are a suggestion. On the day we will probably adjust them slightly so they sit right in the proportions of your photos.

Can I have a custom background?

Dreaming of a different background? Ask when you send your request. With enough notice we may be able to prepare it; otherwise we work with that day's scenes.

How do I book?

Send a request with your day and start time. We confirm the slot with you and send a secure payment link for the 50% deposit ($125 for the Classic, $225 for the Signature, $325 for the Gathering). Your session is booked once the deposit is paid, and the balance is due on the day. The deposit is non-refundable.

How soon do I get my photos?

About 15 minutes after your session, a private link arrives with your edited, high-resolution photos - up to 5 with the Classic, 10 with the Signature and 15 with the Gathering. Most families have them before they leave the building.

Can I get more photos?

Yes. You see every photo from your session and choose on the spot: $10 for each extra photo, edited the same way, or the full gallery ($175 with the Classic, $225 with the Signature, $275 with the Gathering).

Can we bring our dog?

Of course, for an extra $50. Tell us the breed and size when you send your request; every dog is approved ahead of time so the set stays calm and safe for everyone.

Can Santa or the Grinch join us?

Yes. Santa Claus, Mrs. Claus and the Grinch can join your session for $225 per character, subject to availability. Pick them on the request form.

Do I have to choose keepsakes now?

No. The full collection is at the studio on the day, and you choose after you have seen your photos. If something already caught your eye, add it to your request and we will have it ready to show you.

When should I order keepsakes to have them by Christmas?

By Friday, December 4, 2026. Later orders are welcome, but we can't promise delivery before December 25.

What should we wear?

Rich solid colors and soft textures look beautiful on this set: burgundy, forest green, cream, camel and cozy knits. We are happy to help you plan when we confirm your session.
