Famous photographer Wing Shya (Ha Wing Hong) is responsible for this photo shoot, which took four days to complete. From November 28, 2012 to January 1, 2012, the charity calendar will go on sale at the photo exhibition in Harbour City. The event supports the Hong Kong Early Psychosis Intervention Society (EPISO) promoting protection early psychosis.

Jo Koo expressed within the XOXO charity calendar, she represents Hugs and Kisses, sending love and blessings. When asked how she came up with this concept? She said: "There were many celebrities who became mothers during the Dragon year, I am lucky to be one of them. That day I suddenly had this idea, why not I get all the Dragon mothers together and do a calendar photo shoot for charity." She expressed she is very grateful the other 11 dragon mothers were willing to help out. She revealed completing the photo shoot in four days was not easy: "It really challenged our skills to get the babies to stay focus during the photo shoot and to capture their expressions."

Jo also revealed she was truly amazed to see that each mother was in such good physical state. She greatly praised Kelly Chen for successfully regaining her graceful body figure not long after she gave birth. "Her chubby and cute 'Siu Long Bao' (Riley, Kelly's second son) really didn't seem like he came out of Kelly's stomach." As for Miriam, she just recently came back to work, she took the pictures with her son Torres right after he woke up from his nap. Claire Yiu's family of four came to the studio, her eldest daughter (Kyra) is usually a shy girl, but that day she took initiative and posed in front of the camera. Annie's little girl Jamie, rolled her big eyes back and forth and looks just like her mother. Vincent Wong and Yoyo Chen's daughter (Jing Kiu) was sensitive to the camera flashes, but she's naturally born to look like a celebrity. Shirley Yeung's daughter (Krystal) is already 9 months old, she and her mother had great chemistry together during the photo shoot. Janet Chow had a very modern pose, showing off her big belly and felt this maternity charity photo shoot was very meaningful. In most of the shots, photographer Wing Shya, brought out the intimacy and heartwarming feeling between the mothers and their babies.
