How to Choose Photography Backdrops:
There are many options when shopping for photography backdrops. Whether you're shooting on location and need a portable backdrop, or plan to stay in the studio, there are a variety of backdrops to fill your photography needs. From cloth to vinyl or canvas, this guide will help you choose photography backdrops for all types of shoots.
- Select collapsible backdrops for shooting on location. Collapsible, folding backdrops are easy to transport for photography on location. These backdrops fold into a circular shape and fit easily into a vehicle to be transported. Collapsible backdrops are light weight, and good for product, individual and couples shoots.
- Choose vinyl backdrops for in studio shoots only. Mount the vinyl on your studio wall to create a seamless, smooth backdrop option. Vinyl backdrops are easy to clean, durable and long lasting. The long sweeping backdrops will accommodate floor poses, full length poses and close-ups. Vinyl backdrops are not easily portable.
- Pick muslin fabric backdrops as a multi-purpose backdrop. Portable and great in the permanent studio, muslin fabrics are very versatile. They fold easily for transportation, or can hang on a rail system in the studio until needed. Muslins can be set-up on location with the help of a portable background stand. Purchase muslin fabrics in longer lengths to accommodate full length portraits, or in shorter lengths for waist-up portraits.
- Choose canvas backdrops for a variety of poses in the studio. Hang canvas from a roller system in the studio. Use canvas backdrops for close-ups to three-quarter shots. Canvas backdrops are not long enough to shoot head to toe, since they do not sweep onto the floor. Choose canvas backdrops for business portraits and senior head-shots.
- Select sheer backdrop cloths as an accent. Use them with vinyl, for a softer look on children's portraits. Choose white sheer cloth when using gels for muted pastel colors in the background of your portraits. Sheer cloth backdrops can be used in the studio or on location. They fold easily and are very light weight.
How to Clean Photography Backdrops:
It is important to keep the photography backdrops in your studio clean. Routine cleanings of the backdrops will keep them free of footprints, dust and pet fur. Different types of backdrops require different cleaning methods. Keeping the backdrops in your studio clean will produce better portraits, and a create a better impression on your clients.

- Use hot soapy water to clean white vinyl backdrops. Scrub the vinyl with a bristle brush and hot soapy water to remove dirt that has settled in the porous backdrops. Use a mop and bucket of hot water to mop over the surface, and remove the loosened dirt. Go over the white vinyl backdrops again with the damp mop to absorb excess moisture. Never use bleach, as it will cause the white vinyl to turn yellow.
- Wash multi-colored muslin fabric backdrops in the wash machine. Use a cold water wash and cold water rinse. Wash the muslin backdrop by itself, in case any color bleeds out. Dry the muslin backdrops in the dryer on a low heat cycle until they are damp dry. Hang the damp muslin in the studio to finish drying.
- Blot out dirt on black muslin fabric backdrops. Use a damp cloth to work on individual areas of the backdrops. Many black muslin backdrops will turn dark green if too much of the black is rubbed off. Never wash black muslin fabric backdrops without testing a corner of it first for bleeding. If it doesn't bleed, wash in a cold water wash and cold water rinse cycle. Tumble dry the backdrops on a low heat setting until damp, and hang to finish drying.
- Rub a dry cloth over hand painted canvas backdrops. Remove dust and lint by carefully wiping off the backdrops. Never apply water to a hand painted canvas backdrops. Avoid cleaning hand painted canvas backdrops unless it is absolutely necessary. Paint will flake off as you wipe off the backdrops.
- Wash sheer fabrics. Transparent, thin cloth may be washed on the gentle cycle in cold water, followed by a cold water rinse. Allow the sheer fabric to air dry by hanging it back up in the studio.
