Yes
I have always shot on just a black, white or grey background, but ive become somewhat bored of them. So what colout backgrounds do people use for family portraits ect?

Thanks
 
Have you thought about a croma key backdrop. Can have any colour/pattern/scene you want then.
 
Yeh ive thought about it but would prefer not to use it as it would mean investng in more equipment and software, whereas i *** just need to get a backdrop to change the colour.
 
If you have grey, why not just use gels to throw colour on it, that way you could have many different ones :)
 
I did see somebody on TP shooting with a deep red/maroon background which looked wonderful. However the gels could be a good way of playing around to see what sort colour(s) you like.

I think they're reffering to gelling the background and a pack of multicoloured gels will cost you that(ish) :)

:bonk:

Maybe a search of these would bring up this or others that just happened to be the first in google. At £1.70 can't go wrong, I'm assuming they are big enough for a speedlite head buy going to struggle with studio lights hence the £15, dunno I'm intrigued as well :)
