affordable backdrops - baby photography

[slugger]

So, I think it was Olivia who posted about starting out and giving the disc....I went to her FB page, then saw the link to this page, and just had to share.

For anyone who is getting into (or already into) baby & kid photography there are some really cool vinyl backdrops here and some great DIY tips for setting them up in your home studio

Meh...I just use seamless paper or blankets. Cheaper.

I am a HUGE fan of the $5 fleece blankets. They are way too small for kids and adults but perfect for babies.

Yep, just about anything will work, usually just use whatever the parents have in their home...but always have a go-to backup in the car...I've never had to go to the car. I just walk around and ask to borrow things, it makes it seem more personal anyway, in my opinion.

you can get a light-tent pretty cheaply, they are excellent for baby photographs.

fabric from the fabric shop works too, fur and fleece and you can even get vinyl there..........curious about the seamless paper though...need to look into getting some of that.

I just started shopping at thrift stores for unused/unopened wallpaper. The bigger rolls. You'd be amazed at what kind of fabric and goodies you can find at the thrift stores, CHEAP to use.

i know, love second hand shops!!! so how do you use the wallpaper, do you apply to a board or?
