Used a bed sheet for a backdrop!

5 years 1 month ago #632341 by Tristan R
I had a last minute portrait shoot yesterday, and didn't have my backdrops. All we could find was a thankfully CLEAN white bed sheet.  Now I kept in mind that it's thin and can allow light to bleed through it, so positioned it carefully.  Taped it to the ground and done! 

When between a rock and hard spot, bedsheets can work!

Anything will work!

If one doesn't want to recognise it just
move your subject away from it.

Light is free… capturing it is not!

Been there, done that.  Works quite well.  I hung the sheet outside in the patio.  Made a giant light box. PS out the wrinkles.

There are photographs everywhere. It is the call of photographers to see and capture those images.

They can work as a soft reflector, too.

OMG that was funny just to think what a client would do if you pulled out something like that, and how do you play that off??? :rofl:
