Publisher's Synopsis
Every portrait has something behind the subject - and while that background is not the focus of the image, it's a factor that can make or break the shot. In Backdrops and Backgrounds, Ryan Klos takes readers through the full range of options. For studio shoots, he outlines how to select, care for, position and light a wide range of backdrops. For location shoots, Klos covers the selection, modification and lighting of backdrops in urban, residential, rural and park settings. Readers will learn essential techniques to capturing the perfect portrait.
