White, black and gray are essential in every wardrobe and this concept applies to backdrops as well. My general rule is to photograph lighter tones on lighter backdrops and darker tones on darker backdrops. Gray is the exception to the rule. As you can see with Andrea’s cover image there isn’t too much contrast between the lighter gray backdrop and her black shirt. It is subtle, but you can also see that Andrea’s blonde hair is complimented by the ochre color that was added as a golden accent to the backdrop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tones in this backdrop are cream, light gray and ochre. I had to photograph each backdrop before I could declare it finished. Backgrounds tend to look different in a photograph than they do lying on the floor.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In addition to this warm light gray backdrop, the studio has a variety of gray backdrops in hues that range from lighter to darker:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Light Gray<\/a> | Blue-Gray<\/a> | Portable Medium Gray<\/a> | Charcoal Gray<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
