It doesn’t take much to create a colorful photo backdrop. Using your grandma’s patchwork quilt will do the trick! Hang it vertically and set up your tripod – the quilt adds a great amount of color and a vintage vibe.

This first quilt feature comes from Tami Siriani of Siriani Photography. The bride and groom used this colorful quilt as the backdrop to their wedding ceremony, then used it once more as their photo booth backdrop at the reception that followed. A vine-covered arbor at the wedding location made a perfect photo booth stand; they simply tacked the quilt to the backside. The bride decorated the front of the arbor with paper chains made from book pages.
