Welcome to Day 3 of our 10-day Newspaper Activities series. If you have been telling yourself that you need to update your family pics or take your kids to their annual photo session, then today’s newspaper activity is for you because today we are going to have some photography fun!
For today’s newspaper activity all you need is some masking tape or painter’s tape and several sheets of newspaper…and of course your camera. Begin by taping the newspaper up to the wall in a random formation. Be sure to hide your tape behind the newspaper. Continue to add newspaper until you have covered enough area on the wall and floor for your backdrop.
Now have fun taking pictures. Play with the lighting. Add a step stool. Throw balloons in the air. Print the photos in black and white. Whatever goes. You’ve got a cool backdrop so the sky is the limit.
