Kate 5x7ft Retro Portrait Backdrop Abstract Pink Backdrops for Valentine's Day Photography Studio Backgrounds

Used this for company headshots for our website and thought it looked great for being shot on an iPhone and photographed well. I did have to steam it well before using as it had severe creases from being folded in the packaging.

Quality Backdrop!

This is my third backdrop from Kate. I bought the first one several years ago, and the next two very recently. I use them as backgrounds for portraits and headshots in a small professional studio setting.I usually shoot people separated from the background enough for it to come out of focus, leaving color and the impression of texture. This also smooths any imperfections like nicks and runs that might develop in the material. I appreciate the classic look that they help me achieve.The main aspect I would like to note here is that the material has improved significantly since the first backdrop I purchased. It has always been made from microfiber, but now it is a slightly thicker material with less of a "grain" compared to previous such products from this company. Also, the sleeve at the top for inserting a crossbar on a background stand is about twice as deep, making it a lot easier to place over a pole. These are very significant improvements, without an appreciable increase in weight.Much has been made by other reviewers of the lines formed by folding the backdrop for shipping. I quite appreciate how light and compact this makes the product for easy shipping. After I open each backdrop I simply hang it up on a background stand and use a hand steamer to smooth out the seams, which takes just a few minutes.The best way to store these is upright, but rolling them onto roll them over a tube or pole. A 2-3 inch PVC pipe available at any hardware store is a good option.These are worth a lot more than they cost. Fortunately, they are very reasonably priced, attractive, and easy to use, which makes it affordable to purchase many of them in different colours and patterns/textures for my studio.

I purchased the Kate 5x7ft Brown Portrait Backdrop, and it continues to meet my expectations. I'm still using it regularly, and it has proven to be a reliable and durable backdrop for my portrait photography needs. The brown color provides a versatile background, and its quality has held up well over time. Overall, I'm pleased with this purchase, and it remains a valuable tool in my photography setup.

It’s a good backdrop, just pretty wrinkly out of the package.

So I ordered the blue grey color and this is what I got looks very grey and the item numbers are all the same so I can’t tell if this is the right color I ordered or not. Either way it’s great, did have creases so I put in the dryer for 20 min took it out and see for yourself it’s wrinkle free. No iron or steam needs. Definitely worth the price. Will buy other colors later.

Works well for professional photographers

Very very nice quality backdrop, but the one I received was not 5X7 as requested. I did not have time to return it so I had to work with what I had.

Gran calidad, excelente material, es como aterciopelado del lado de la impresión con lo que se evita cualquier reflejo, gran compra!

Se arruga fácilmente

calidad y precio, lo recomiendo ampliamente

Me gustó, aunque requiere de mucho cuidado o bastante postproducción.

Amazon's product photo pictures don't do these backgrounds justice. They are way more prettier and vibrant in person. I absolutely love how soft the material is. To me they are easy to work with. I purchased several in different colors. :D I'm no expert but to me they seem pretty good quality and you can't go wrong with the price. They are a bit wrinkled when you first unfold them, however, I'm not a professional photographer so the wrinkles aren't a major concern to me. I'm sure there is more than a few ways to get rid of the wrinkles if you feel they are a must to remove. I would highly recommend them and are a must if you are starting out and on a budget :D
