Portraits on New White Background
Our new backdrop arrived today from Vistek. We'd been using a white backdrop before and getting some lovely portraits so we were keen to get our own. Of course not having our own studio yet made things tricky but we found the HiLite Backdrop. from Lastolite. It's 6'x7' and if you have a look at the photographs below it produces a nice clean white with no shadows. The subjects can be almost on top of the backdrop making it great for working in places with little space. The set up took about ten minutes which included setting up the lights (we only used two lights) and the backdrop. Thanks to the models, my lovely wife Christa (the other half of Isis), her Dad Bob and the not so little puppy (now) Maggie.
