Photo Studio Booth Recommendation

[dave1325blue]

Hi, Does anyone have a recommendation on a tabletop photo studio booth? I would like to increase the quality of my photos and make the process easier. A 16" X 16" would be a minimum size that would work for me. Thanks

Find an appropriate sized cardboard box. Cut off side, top, etc to make a stage. Line the stage sides, bottom and back with desired color of paper from a craft supply store. Works beautifully for me....and cheap.

I use incandescent lights mounted above the stage and a couple mini-mag incandescent flashlights to spray light wherever needed. No LEDs.

Thanks, great idea.

I would suggest investing more into lights. There are great background removers that can do wonders as long as you light the item properly.

You can find photo boxes fairly cheap that can fit on a table. Myself, I have a couple sheets of wood I picked up from Lowe's fairly cheap because they were in the off cut pile that I use for a background for most of my photos and mostly use the sunlight coming into the room instead of my ring light.

If you want to go bigger, can find some decent "my setup" videos on YouTube. But they're mostly for clothing. But you can probably take ideas from it and make your own setup.

Here is mine...almost identical to the poster above me except for the sleeping cat.

For the white sheet I suggest a plastic one rather than the project board type.  Easier to clean and won't tear. Hobby Lobby sells them for less than $3.

Wow! My heart goes out to your beautiful Siam. Looks exactly like my late Merlin. Sigh...

lights  and a seamless back ground  is a nice combo.

I'm not a cat person.

I'm a photographer.

I like your cat photo.

OK ok...I like your cat too. Very nice looking.

I use poster boards.  2 White and 2 Black.  One for the Base and one for the Background  30" x 20" Can be picked up at Walmart for a few dollars.  Put on a table and lean the Background on whatever.
