Backdrop that sparkles?

12 years 10 months ago #96219 by Bobby
I'm hoping someone can help me out a bit. I saw at a friends house a picture of their kids and the backdrop that was used wasn't the typical Lifetouch look. Instead it looked like out of focus lights all over the fabric. Does anyone know where I can get one of these? I'm looking for something other than black or white but something that stands out and is still elegant looking.

Fabric covered in sequins? A flash would cause them to reflect and look like points of light.

I've placed Christmas lights behind my backdrops before for use with boken shapes (or infront for a less subtle effect). It breaks up the solid look. Don't mind the photos, they are souly to illustrate what I mean.

Does sound like an idea to try.

Am I the only one or do her pictures (the 'in front of' and 'behind') almost look 3-d'ish? I feel like I'm loosing it!

:agree: plus take a look at Silver Lakes and Denny Manufacturing. I have used these guys for some time and their service is excellent. I think Backdrop does have a larger selection on some items.

A rewards or rental program sure would be nice to have with a back drop company. :toetap:

Backdrop Outlet has a rental option... I haven't used it but it sounds like a good deal.
