tips for digital photography

Posted on: 12 February 2021

Are you planning a virtual wedding? This unique take on nuptials has arisen during the Covid-19 era social restrictions and is a great way to move your relationship forward. But having a virtual wedding can also come with unique challenges.

One such challenge is the ceremony background. While some couples had an entire world to choose from for the backdrop of their ceremony, many couples are limited to much smaller pools now. What can help? A customized photography backdrop. Here's why this photographer's tool might make your wedding easier. 

1. It's Easier Than DIY. Most couples searching for a wedding background have to DIY something to make the walls of their home look worthy of a wedding. But this takes time, energy, and creativity that you may not have. Rather than put together various flowers and plants, make garlands, or go overboard on candles, choose a backdrop that already has these elements in beautiful designs. 

2. It's Inexpensive. A backdrop is a one-time wedding purchase that's available for a reasonable price. Once you add up all the different items you need to build a custom background with real wood or metal frames, flowers, greenery, and accessories, the cost can quickly grow. When you add it up, a custom photography backdrop can help keep your wedding budget low.

3. It Offers More Variety. Are you not able to have your destination wedding? You can still get in the right spirit by choosing a backdrop that takes you to your special locations right at home. For example, you could have a spring wedding in the winter or have your favorite poem or scripture displayed on the wall backdrop. Because each backdrop is custom-designed, your options are nearly limitless and can be very personalized to your particular story. 

4. It Looks Great on Video. Crafting a wedding that looks great to a virtual audience attending is hard. Colors might not pop and small details may not show up. On the other hand, photo backdrops are designed to show up well in pictures and wedding videos so they're more likely to be an easy win. 

5. You Can Scale It. Need more than just one small square for your nuptial video? Add as many backdrops as you want to make the entire space camera-ready. Go tall or wide or use different backgrounds for different parts of the wedding. Flexibility is easy and inexpensive when you're just adding or reducing canvas elements.

The more you see how they help make virtual wedding planning and execution simple, the more you'll wonder how you ever planned to do without.
