Gray is the Queen of colors, because she makes everyone else look good.
-Helen Van Wyk, Painter
As you can see from the images in this post, this light gray backdrop can appear much lighter or darker in photographs depending upon the lighting used to make the portrait. In the studio I work with natural light, strobe light, and a mix of both natural light and strobe to create portraits that are light and airy to dark and moody and everything in between.
The goal with this backdrop was to choose the right tone of gray that would work as both a neutral and to pair well with just about any color. I also had in mind to select a tone that would work well in replacing white seamless paper for fashion-inspired images, especially when a little more texture is desired in the image.
In addition to this warm light gray backdrop, the studio has a variety of gray backdrops in inventory:
Warm Gray | Charcoal Gray | Blue-Gray | Portable Medium Gray
