If you’ve been following my work for any length of time, you know I prefer outdoor portraits over studio. But I was recently reviewing a new line of studio backdrops for Rangefinder magazine and needed to photograph people in front of the backdrops. I contacted one of my Woodstock reps and a friend of my Johnsburg reps to model and here are the results. It was kind of like shooting mini senior sessions.

As far as backdrops go, these were awesome. They’re modern and definitely cooler than your typical studio portrait backgrounds, and they accept light really well. If I were to start shooting more studio work, I’d definitely consider getting several more backdrops from this line.

Thanks to my models Stephen and Meghan for helping out and to Heather McMillan who did makeup for Meghan—great work everyone! I’ll let you know when the review is published and which issue it is in.
