Hi guys,
Soo after my cousins wedding my cousins mum said she much prefers my pictures to the photographers Everyone agrees So I have had a flood of requests now to do all sort of shots
So basically I need a backdrop as I want to take some portrait photos of my family and customers. Now my family and most of my customers are Pakistani so obviously we are dark skinned. Now Im quite dark maybe snickers wrapper dark but my mum and brothers wife are quite light maybe more beige/light brown.
So what backdrop would be more flattering for darker skinned people? I also want one which would be ok for lighter skinned people too . And where would be the best and cheapest place to get it? Would I need a stand for the backdrop too?
Lastly since doing wedding photography there was some times that I personally felt a flash with a swivel head could have been nice. I would be buying second hand so most likely from the classifieds on here.
So which flash?
My camera is a canon 500d.
Thanks for your help, oh and any tips on portraits would be nice Thanks again
