Requested Background

I was given an assignment recently to find a green background to undertake an engagement shoot. Being pressed for time I only had about an hour to find something adequate because I was off to my day job prior to coming home in the late evening and packing for an overseas trip and assignment (to be discussed in a later post).

The task was to find a bright, vibrant colour on a background that wasn't just plain and boring. With so little time the task proved more difficult than I imagined.

I did however manage to come up with a few different options. My personal choice is the image pictured above as the colour really pops and while somewhat plain the bricks nevertheless provide a nice textured surface. I know it would allow me to create some truly outstanding images.

I did also manage to find a couple of other backdrops that also meet the criteria but to me didn't seem as interesting and definitely not as colourful yet it did provide an option for the client to ultimately decide. No matter what the ultimate choice, I know that I will make it work to achieve the desired result.
