When you’re setting up a photography backdrop for any occasion, you should keep the theme in mind. If you want to create a specific seasonal look, you’ll need the right backdrop and additional accessories. Keep reading to learn the key items for seasonal photography backdrops so you can bring a brilliant look and strong atmosphere to any shoot.
Holiday-Specific Decorations
Each season has its fair share of holidays, any of which you can use as the theme for your backdrop. However, if the holiday theme is yours to choose and doesn’t have to abide by specific restrictions, use the biggest holidays for each season. For winter, you can place some dashing Christmas décor in the foreground. For a fall theme, Halloween is the perfect holiday to choose when it comes to fun decorations.
Again, these are just a few of the many holidays you can have fun with. However, by sticking with very distinct, iconic holiday-themed decorations, you can vividly bring the finished photo to life. For instance, International Talk Like a Pirate Day is every September, but, as fun as it is, does dressing up your set with pirate-themed décor really capture the look and feel of the fall season? When you’re looking for key items for seasonal photography backdrops, consider holidays with a wide variety of decorations to choose from.
Seasonal Color Schemes
To match the current season, make sure everything in the camera frame matches the season’s colors, including accessories, backdrops, and so forth. For instance, you can stick with cool blues and white for winter to really bring out that seasonal atmosphere in a ravishing way. Likewise, for summer backdrops, choose a palette with sunny yellows and sandy tans to give the photo a warm, beachy vibe. Even if you have the perfect holiday-specific décor, sticking with the right seasonal color scheme will bring the whole vision together in a coherent and stunning way.
This also explains why choosing holiday décor with a color scheme matching the seasonal color scheme is helpful. The warm orange of a Jack-o’-lantern screams “fall” not just because you’ll see them outside during this time of the year but also because the color matches the leaves falling from the trees throughout the season. Luckily, as you can see from our selection of backdrop panels, it’s easy to find one matching the color scheme of any season.
