A mother is decorating her living room with Christmas motifs. The room is well lit with cold and soft tones that evoke the Christmas winter. The mother is the main focus of the image, and her face shows a mix of joy and concern, raising her pensive and reflective gaze a little, looking for the best surprise for her two children aged 5 and 8 who are helping her with the arrangements while she puts up the decorations. The photograph should be in photo-realistic style, capturing the authenticity of the moment.
