3 Ways To Use Christmas Backdrops For Child's Photography

Christmas portraits are a great way to capture memories and celebrate the holidays. One way to enhance the portraits you take is with a Christmas themed backdrop. The designs include Christmas trees, decorated fireplaces, and rustic Christmas cabins.

Not only will the backgrounds work for basic portraits, but these festive designs make for unique takes on holiday photography.

1. Christmas Tree Growth Charts

Each year, your children grow bigger and older. One of the best ways to track the size changes is with a growth chart. When you purchase a backdrop with a Christmas tree on it, you can measure the child up to the tree each year.

If you buy real trees each year, the sizes will be different and hard to measure up. A backdrop will remain the same and your child's height differences can be captured year after year. The Christmas tree acts as a great measuring tool. After a few years, you can edit the photos together to create a collage and visualize how the child has grown.

2. Christmas Roleplay Shoots

A Christmas kid photo backdrop sets the perfect mood and theme for some holiday roleplay shoots. For example, a child may dress up as Santa or an elf to pose in front of the holiday design. If you have multiple children, you can have fun with different designs. For example, one child can dress as a Who while the other dresses as The Grinch.

The background helps elevate the costumes and makes the dress-up feel even more realistic. Along with photos, you can use the backdrop and costumes for some fun short video clips.

3. Holiday Cards

A Christmas backdrop supplies the ideal background for holiday card photos. One of the best elements of a holiday backdrop is light control. If you had an actual background with Christmas lights, a lit-up tree, or a fireplace, you would run into major lighting issues, including harsh shadows.

With a backdrop, all of those festive elements are printed on the background while you can control the lighting. A printed Christmas tree full of colorful lights will add a lot of pop to your photos without messing with the focus, color balance, or exposure.

You can also choose outdoor backdrop designs without the need to take photos outdoors and deal with possible harsh weather conditions.

The durability and quality of a backdrop allow you to pull out the design year after year and have options for photos. Contact a kid photo backdrop company for more information.
