Top 10 Backdrops for Portrait Photography

Those of you who follow my blog and instagram feed, see me using Lastolite Collapsable Backdrops on the majority of my Portrait Sittings. Here are my top 10 backdrops which I recommend for headshots & portraits. As a travelling portraitist collapsible backgrounds are a quick and easy solution. They take seconds to set up and pack away making them equally convenient to pop-open in offices & clients homes.

I enjoy shooting portraits with the collapsible backdrops. As a one man band, I can easily accomplish the background set-ups by myself since they fold and unfold like a giant reflector. They are easy to carry on public transport, which is a blessing. The majority of my sittings take place in London. As a regular passenger on the London Underground they are easy to stow in a large suitcase.

As well as single sided backdrops, Lastolite offer reversible backdrops giving you more options. The backdrops I most frequently us are the Black/White, White/Light Gray Urban Collapsible Background Smoke/Concrete and Vintage backdrops such as Tobacco/Olive.
