It will complete your pictures and make your theme come alive.
Sometimes, it’s that finishing touch that pulls everything together. You know, the right label, the matching ribbon. Or, in this case, the right spot to take that family picture.
Your kids are all dressed in their costumes- they look adorable! The hours spent on Temu or scouring Purim stores finally feels like it was all worth it. They all look so cute and so happy.
Phew!
Let’s snap a picture? Yes!
What if instead of your dining room wall, you can have a backdrop that pulls you into the scene of this year’s theme? We say go for it.
Most photo backdrops are in the $10-$20 range.
While you have your backdrop, it’s also good incentive to get everything done early and take those photos on a day BEFORE Purim, so when Purim comes, there’s less photo-getting stress.
Important! Make sure to check the size of the backdrop and measure your wall.
Pick a size that makes sense to you (and the size of your family). For reference, we used a 10 foot x 8 foot backdrop and it was perfect for a photo which included 4 adults and 3 children.
We used a ladder and some painter’s tape to hang it up for the day and it lasted just fine.
The options are endless! Here are some themes we found but if we missed yours, simply search!
If you dont have a backdrop you can also ask ChatGPT to make one with one of your family photos.
Let it know to make it realistic without touching or altering any of the people… i found this prompt on Kosher.com article
Generate a ____________ around the family. Using this input image, keep the subjects exactly as in the photo without altering pose, outfit, or features. The lighting and perspective should match the original photo, and the subjects should remain completely unchanged, with the background wrapping naturally around them.”
Such an adorable idea!
I used Canva to generate a backdrop. After a few tries it came out adorable.
Min hashamaim, I just finished a work related workshop on zoom where they taught me how to do this on gemini! I took the picture of my son in a costume and it made it look he was there in a construciton site. Pretty cool. I like the prop someone posted above me.
