Who said green looked good on everybody?

We thought it would be fun to feature a photographer each month presenting a holiday themed photo shoot for you to do at home with your kids. Clearly, a pro is the best, but its fun to have a few holiday-themed candids on display too!

This month, in honor of St Patrick's Day, our guest blogger is Melissa from Blue Prints Photography.   You should definitely check her blog out! Melissa had this super fun idea to do for your St. Patrick's Day photo this year that will help answer the question, feelin' green? Not really....

For Saint Patrick's Day this year, ditch the traditional green and go for a rainbow-themed photo shoot with your kids! If you don't have a rainbow dress like the one pictured, don't worry! You can create your own rainbow effect by dressing up your child in purple socks, blue shorts, a green shirt, yellow scarf, and an orange or red hat. Or, if you have several children, spread the rainbow out over all of them! Most importantly, just be goofy and have fun!

I am picturing my girls wearing a mix of reds and orange and purple and yellow and my son in blues and greens all in a row to make my own little rainbow of love---hopefully I can get the perfect shot before the rainbow starts pulling hair and pushing!!! Wish me luck...the Irish kind!

By the way, if this post inspires you to take some fun rainbow pictures, 

or have Melissa take them, let us know!  We'd love to see them!
