What is in this collection
The Christmas collection mixes studio sets and real-looking places. You will find a white flocked tree in a gold and ivory studio, a Scandinavian pine wall with straw stars, an evergreen wreath wall with red and gold gifts, rustic barn doors with hay bales, and a navy wall with an evergreen arch and brass stars. Outdoor scenes include a snowy log cabin porch, a Georgian front door with a garland, and a lit fir tree in a snowy forest clearing. The Christmas Family living rooms, with fireplaces, sofas and staircases, are included here as well.
Christmas photo booth backgrounds
In a booth, guests stand in the middle of the frame, so the studio sets with an open floor work best: the evergreen wreath wall with gifts, the white flocked tree studio, the studio Christmas tree farm set and the Christmas balloon garland arch. For families and office parties of four to six, use the log cabin porch or one of the Christmas Family living rooms. Photographers can use the same scenes as Christmas photography backgrounds for mini sessions and holiday cards. See photo booth backgrounds for print layouts.
Tips for using these scenes
- Match the light. Many Christmas scenes have warm light from the left or right, or from fairy lights behind. Light your subject from the same side, or add a little warm rim light, so the person does not look pasted in.
- Give the tree room. The trees and garlands sit to the sides in most scenes, so stand people in the open centre and keep feet on the floor line. A soft contact shadow under the feet makes a big difference.
- Pick the orientation for the print. Use landscape for 6 x 4 group prints, portrait for single prints and phone screens, and square for social posts. All three files are cut from the same scene, so the look stays the same.

Frequently asked questions
Which scenes work for big family groups?
Look at the Christmas Family scenes first: they are wide living rooms built for four to six people, standing or seated. The snowy log cabin porch also fits four to six people. The Christmas balloon garland arch frames one to three.
Which Christmas scenes are outdoors?
Four of them: the snowy log cabin porch with lanterns, the Georgian front door with a garland in snow, the lit fir tree in a snowy forest clearing and the frosted wreath arch by a snowy pergola. The porch and the front door have warm light; the forest and the pergola are cool and blue, so give your subjects soft, slightly cool light for those.
Which scenes have room for a seated pose?
The white flocked tree studio, the Scandinavian pine wall, the Georgian front door, the studio tree farm set and the rustic barn doors with hay bales all work standing or seated, and so do most Christmas Family rooms. Shoot your subjects on a seat of a similar height and add a soft shadow where they sit.
