Discover Our 2026 Christmas Mini Sets
Celebrate the magic of the season with our three spectacular, custom-designed backdrops. Whether you prefer the elegance of the indoors or the fresh air of the outdoors, we have the perfect setting for your family memories.
Option 1: The Indoor Elegant Fireplace
Bright, modern, and timelessly stylish!
Step into a scene of pure festive luxury. This stunning set features a beautifully carved classic fireplace aglow with warm, flickering candles, a grand ornate mirror, and an exquisite crystal chandelier overhead. Complete with a magnificently decorated white Christmas tree and wrapped gifts, this bright and sophisticated backdrop is perfect for pets, kids, and families of all sizes.
Option 2: The Indoor Secret Garden
A truly enchanting festive wonderland.
Immerse your family in a lush, fairytale holiday. This spectacular indoor set features a rustic wooden archway overflowing with rich
green foliage and vibrant, native Australian red summer flowers. Surrounded by twinkling fairy lights, elegant hanging gold bells, beautifully wrapped presents, and miniature woven Christmas trees, it creates a magical, sun-drenched festive backdrop that brings the beauty of nature inside.
💡 Why choose an Indoor Session?
Both of our indoor backdrops are super-sized and extra tall, allowing for gorgeous, full-length standing images of your entire family. Yes these indoor sets are this big! If you have an older or taller family, three or more children, or confident family cats who need a secure space, we highly recommend booking an indoor session. Family pets are always very welcome!
Option 3: The Outdoor Festive Arch
Cosy, bright, and full of fresh-air charm.
Nestled in our garden gazebo setting, our modern Outdoor Arch is a stylish set. This features a beautiful, pine garland shaped into a flawless circular arch, accented with natural pinecones and elegant white ornaments that pop against the greenery. This sits against a dreamy bokeh background of soft, warm white lights, perfect for creating that modern Christmas sparkle in the beautiful Melbourne summer air.
This is a bright, fresh, and modern choice, perfect for families with lively little ones or energetic dogs who prefer the fresh air!
Rest assured that outdoor sessions will be moved to the indoor set or rearranged, if the Melbourne weather requires this!
