The Importance of Backgrounds for Every Photographer
Author: Sheng Ye Date Posted:27 July 2015
It can be effectively said that the Mona Lisa was not created in an afternoon. While modern camera
technologies enable contemporary photographers to defy Leonardo Da Vinci’s formidable efforts in a
single session, the fact is that challenges still exist. The Renaissance shaped exceptional portraiture with
the introduction of the one point perspective in background. Today, professional photographers
acknowledge that the right background is essential to creating the best conditions for the lighting and
exhibition of the subject. Without the proper background, a shoot may result in unexpected outcomes.
Finding the Right Background Support Kit
PES offers the ultimate selection in Background Support Kits for Paper, cloth and vinyl backdrop products. We
understand that backdrops can present technical challenges to photographers. With our easy to
assemble PES Background Support Kits, photographers are able to set up and shoot in minutes. Whether
you are setting up to shoot a family portrait, product series, or a professional model, the PES
Background Support Kit allows for modification of a backdrop to suit any photographic engagement.
Cloth or vinyl backgrounds can enhance the aesthetic results of a photo session. The right Background
Support Kit will make a difference in the integrity of the images on production. Rendering consistency in
flash and background reflection is important. Depending on the texture and weight of the cloth or vinyl,
the ability to hang a background flat is key. Some photographers will change a background during a
shoot to establish different lighting conditions and ambience according to the client’s request. With a
self-assembled background support kit, those adjustments can be made without delay.
