Product Information

You can add lights from the front to help reduce or get rid of the shadow. This may result in light from them spilling onto your subject. If you want to mount one without a stand, you’ll need a couple of additional items. Grip clamps and clips are the best choices as they’re sturdy and fast to use.

The measurements of 5 x 7 ft (1.5 x 2.1 m) allow you to shoot full-body shots and wider scenes. This helps to move beyond basic headshots and close-up product photography. You have much more room to maneuver. Next I use the Dodge tool set to affect the highlight range. With the Range set to affect only highlights, there is little risk of your main subject being affected. I set the exposure for this tool at 100%.

For portrait photography with a single model, a 5′ x 7′ size is ideal as you can use it with the model standing and sitting. Howver if your model is tall, there may not be enough material to cover their full height. So I opened the image in Photoshop and added a Levels Adjustment Layer. The problem became more obvious. Once I’ve switched to Photoshop, I will add a Levels Adjustment Layer and move the sliders most of the way to the right. This will allow me to see where any dark areas are.

You can shoot wider, environmental portraits. And it’s ideal for full-body shoots in fashion photography. You can also use it for wedding photography. And the purple option is great for child photography.

Use your existing drapes or roll-down blinds. Clamp or tape the drapes flat to remove crinkles or folds.

Printed Backgrounds

If shooting small products or you have little room, a 3′ x 5′ size will be suitable – if photographing more significant products, you’re best starting with a larger one. It’s lightweight and has shoulder straps, making it easy to carry to your next shoot. So it’s great for photographers that travel from place to place. Choose a wider size such ha 8′ x 12′ if you’re shooting family or group portraits and an 8′ x 8′ for standing portraits and fashion photography with tall models.
