Daryl24   10 #1 Posted May 10, 2011 Hi All  As part of my wedding package/events package, I have been running some photobooth style shots, but i am in need of some backgrounds/backdrops, whether this be just plain white sheets or something portable, can anyone provide some advice of what they use.  I've been looking at Lasolite hilite backgrounds, but these are quite expensive for what they are, has anyone purchased these and are they worth it?  Any help would be great.  Thanks  Daryl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Ms_Tetley   10 #2 Posted May 10, 2011 (edited) Hi Daryl24,  I have currently got a lastolite hilite background for sale!! The reason I'm selling it is because I dont use it very often because most of my work is weddings, location portraits and baby photography ( I use a smaller background because of space issue's in some houses and always use a black background ) The backdrop is very easy to use and you would only need two studio lights to produce high key photography. One light is directed inside the background and the other is to light the subject. You get clean crisp results from it.  Its 5ft x 7ft .. and folds flat like any other lastolite backdrop. Im wanting £180 for it. No stand needed with it either!! Edited May 10, 2011 by Ms_Tetley add more info Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Daryl24   10 #3 Posted May 10, 2011 Hi Ms Tetley  Thanks for your reponse, i would be interested in your lasolite backdrop, depending upon it's condition etc. But the main point of my post was to see what other people use, so could you let me know which smaller black background you use?  Any other advice welcome.  Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Ms_Tetley   10 #4 Posted May 10, 2011 All my backgrounds are lastolite .. its just a pop up one .. its their normal ones and you need to use a stand with it! I thought with you asking about hilite you were wanting to do high key photography .. thats what they are designed for Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
