Ded Moroz in your photo: add him with AI
Ded Moroz, the Russian Father Frost, puts a gift under your own tree, hands it to your child, or it is you in his coat. Pick a scene and a coat color, and the preview shows the result and which photo to upload.
What you getDed Moroz by your tree
Ded Moroz in a long coat puts a gift under your tree. The light, perspective and shadows come from your room, as if the shot was taken at night on a phone.
Red is the classic, blue is the wintry, frosty one. Either way it is a floor-length coat with white fur, a staff and embroidered mittens.
Photos with Ded Moroz come with plans from Lite at ₽690. Your photo and the chosen scene open in the image studio, and generation starts on its own once you pay.
Open in the studioProof that Ded Moroz came
The most common reason to open this page: to show your child a morning photo of Ded Moroz putting a gift under your tree. Make it in advance, and so that the child does not see it.
- 1
Shoot the tree in the evening
Turn the ceiling light off and leave the fairy lights on. The whole tree in the frame, free space by the trunk, no people.
- 2
Pick a coat and open it in the studio
The AI fits Ded Moroz into your room and matches the light, perspective and shadows. Everything else in the room stays as it was.
- 3
Hide it until morning
Do not save the shot to the shared family gallery or send it to a chat your child reads. It is safest to leave it in the studio until 1 January.
- 4
Wrap the gift the same way
Wrap the real gift in the same paper as in the picture, or ask in the studio: “a gift in blue paper with a silver ribbon”.
The Russian Ded Moroz, not Santa Claus
AI models tend to draw Santa out of habit: a short jacket, a belt, reindeer. TryChat templates spell out the opposite, so you get the Ded Moroz Russian families expect.
- Coat
- Ded Moroz in your photos: Floor-length, red or blue, with white fur
- Santa Claus: A short jacket with a black belt
- Hat
- Ded Moroz in your photos: Tall, the color of the coat, with fur trim
- Santa Claus: A pointed cap with a pompom
- Beard
- Ded Moroz in your photos: Long and white, below the waist
- Santa Claus: Short and neat

- Ded Moroz in your photos: A staff, a sack of gifts, embroidered mittens
- Santa Claus: A sack, no staff
- Beside him
- Ded Moroz in your photos: Snegurochka, the Snow Maiden
- Santa Claus: Reindeer and elves
There is also a white Ded Moroz, and a Soviet one, as on old greeting cards. Add a white coat to the prompt in the studio, and find the retro style on the Soviet-style cards page.
Your child and Ded Moroz: the shot nobody managed to take
A school or nursery party does not always give you a good shot. Upload an ordinary home photo of your child and the AI places Ded Moroz beside them by a decorated tree. The child gets a gift, both smile.
The child’s face, hair and clothes stay as in your photo. It works best with a photo where the child looks at the camera and the face is not hidden by a hat or hands.
Two children? Upload a photo of both and add in the studio: “both children get gifts”.
Become Ded Moroz or Snegurochka
For a festive profile picture, an office party invitation or a family prank. The look is from a fairy tale, the face stays yours.
You are Ded Moroz
A beard, a hat and a floor-length coat, yet your eyes, nose and smile are recognizable at once. Good for a card to colleagues or a family prank.
A fairy-tale Snegurochka
A pale-blue coat with white fur and silver embroidery, a kokoshnik headdress, a long braid, birches in the snow. The costume looks like a fairy tale, not a shop rental.
A reply from Ded Moroz and a photo by the tree
Let your child write a letter in December and find a reply in the morning, along with a photo of their gift being placed under the tree. The AI helps write the letter and Ded Moroz’s reply for free.
What a photo with Ded Moroz costs
All four scenes are image generation, available on any paid plan. The templates open on Nano Banana 2.1 by default.
Frequently asked questions
How do I add Ded Moroz to a photo of my own tree?
Choose the “Ded Moroz by your tree” scene, upload a photo of the room with the tree, pick the coat color and press “Open in the studio”. The AI adds Ded Moroz with a gift and leaves the room as it was.
Will it be the Russian Ded Moroz and not Santa?
Yes. The templates specify a floor-length coat, a tall hat, a long beard, embroidered mittens and a staff, and rule Santa Claus out explicitly. If a pompom cap still appears, write in the studio: “a hat like Ded Moroz’s, no pompom”.
Can Ded Moroz be blue or white?
Blue is picked with the coat switch on the first screen. For a white coat, add to the prompt in the studio: “a white coat with silver embroidery”.
How do I turn my photo into Snegurochka?
Choose “Become Snegurochka” and upload a front-facing, well-lit portrait. You get a pale-blue coat with silver, a kokoshnik and a braid in a birch grove, and your face stays yours.
Will my child’s face stay recognizable?
Yes, the template asks to keep the child’s face, hair and clothes as in the photo. A photo where the whole face is visible and not covered by a hat works best.
Can I make a photo with Ded Moroz for free?
No, it is image generation, available on plans from Lite at ₽690 a month. On the free Starter plan you can write a letter to Ded Moroz and his reply.
