Your Go-to Quick Guide To Photography Backdrops

Photography backdrops are a must-have tool for photographers at any skill level. Whether you're shooting portraits, products, or creative scenes, the right backdrop can set the tone and instantly make your photos look more professional. At Backdrop Collective, we’re here to make it easy for you to find the perfect fit! 

Choosing the Best Backdrop Size

Picking the right size backdrop is super important. It affects how you frame your subject, the look of your photo, and how easy your shoot is. Think about your space, your subject size, and how portable you need the backdrop to be.

Backdrop Size Options 

600mm x 600mm Backdrop: Perfect for Small Products and Tight Spaces

700mm x 900mm Backdrop: Great for Portraits and Medium-Sized Products

Need a little more room? Our 700mm x 900mm backdrops are fantastic for small to medium product setups, or food photography scenes. They give you more flexibility without taking over your space.

900mm x 1200mm Backdrop: Ideal for Full-Body Portraits and Larger Setups

Custom Sizes: Tailored Just for You

Got something unique in mind? We also offer custom-sized photography backdrops! Whether you need something extra-large for trade shows or a specific fit for your studio wall, we can make it happen.

Backdrop Colour Options

Choosing the right backdrop colour or texture is more than just a styling decision - it tells a story about your brand, your product, and the mood you want to create. A soft beige or textured concrete backdrop can instantly give your photos a grounded, modern feel, while a crisp white background keeps things clean, minimal, and product-focused. The backdrop sets the tone and helps your product shine without distraction. That’s why our most popular options are timeless neutrals like white, beige, and subtle stone textures - they work across a wide range of products and industries, making them a go-to for photographers and small business owners alike.
