CHOOSING YOUR BACKGROUND MATERIAL

Here is some great information from David and Julie Maheu of Backgrounds by Maheu:

Whether you are just starting out in business or are an established professional, choosing the right type of background material has always been a question asked by our clients. We would like to discuss the pros and cons of all the background options to make your photography sessions most efficient.

USING LAYERS TO CORRECT MIXED LIGHTING

In this installment, Mid-South Account Representative Rick Trummer goes over the use of layers in Photoshop to correct for mixed light situations. It’s a situation that all of us need to deal with from time to time, but it doesn’t have to be difficult to take care of or implement in your studio workflow.

PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT: CANVAS TEXTURE PAPER

Your customers will be delighted with the luxurious look and feel which this classic, premium-quality canvas surface silver halide paper will give to their images. Images take on a whole new dimension when printed on canvas photographic paper, enabling you to create a wider range of unique products for your customers.

This paper, made by Kodak, eliminates the need for added machine texture. Available in all sizes through 30x40 and is priced at a 10% premium. Looks great on wall portraits and albums. Please note: Not for prints that are to be bonded to canvas.

LARGE PRINTS REDEFINED

Now you can design a print to fit the space. We have just added a new printer with the capacity of 64 inches wide by any length. It is a new generation of high-quality inket printers which features an expanded 10-color ink set. Prints can be made on Giclee canvas, watercolor paper or photo-realistic paper.

You have to see the results to fully appreciate the beauty and fidelity of these prints. The stunning image shown above is 48"x72". Call Dirk or Rick for additional details and mounting options.
