## What it does

A swirl of glittering snow wraps around your subject and the room changes into a cozy living room with a decorated tree. They now wear a red Santa suit and hat, and they wave warmly.

## From our test

Our sample was an older man in a gray sweater. A bright streak of snow swept across the frame, and he appeared in a red suit with white fur trim, with a lit tree behind him, waving. The render took about 3 minutes.

## Tips for the best photo

- Use a waist-up photo with your face fully visible and no hat or glasses.
- A calm indoor background works best.
- Smile in the photo to keep the cheerful look.

## Ideas for using it

- A family makes a holiday greeting for relatives.
- A shop owner shares a seasonal sale announcement.
- A teacher makes a classroom holiday card.
