As spring eases its way into summer, the “May flowers” theme pays homage to rebirth, color, and happiness. Blooms abound in even the coldest climates at this time of year, provided you’re in the northern hemisphere, of course. Make a spring-flowers-themed photo backdrop and spread the joy, with a helpful tutorial available at Design Sponge that shows how to make giant paper flowers. They’ll help put some spring of your own in the air! A colorful floral backdrop will make for a nice addition to any garden party or springtime soirée.

Spring is in the Air
April Showers
April showers bring May flowers and help to continue the spring cycle of renewal. Everything is new and fresh and the saying is a reminder that after something unpleasant can come something enjoyable. Make the most of this beautiful time of year with your very own April Showers inspired photo booth.
Create your own rainstorm with colorful raindrop garland. Add some balloons for clouds and silver tinsel for rain and you’ve got a dazzling backdrop on your hands. Don’t forget to pack your umbrella!

Jingle Those Holiday Bells
Make your holiday party fa la la fabulous with sackfuls of cheer! Add some multicolored streamers for an easy, go-to backdrop. Or get festive by adding in some ornaments and Christmas decorations that may be hanging around the house. Change things up by calling some friends and having them bring a blanket for a background, some surprise decorations and plenty of smiles. Any way you go, make sure to include lots of fun even for those on the naughty list.

Aoife Millea, a photographer for Cleare Photography out of Waterford, Ireland, has been operating her own photo booth for less than a year, but seems to have perfected it already. Bright colors, whimsical backdrops and, sometimes, Whisker Works props. Why does she like photo booths? Aoife states, “because I felt a lot of people, especially adults, can be super uncomfortable standing for normal photos, but give them a mustache on a stick and they transform into giggling confident posers, whether they are 5 or 95!”
