a cheap and easy way to make some backdrops would be to use queen or king sized flat bed sheets...



party sounds like fun!

Backdrops can be very pricey, so if you don't plan on getting into photography then I don't recommend getting them.



Curtains make good backgrounds... plus, you can buy them, use them, and return them.



Blankets and bed sheets also make good backgrounds.



If you only want to do head shots, just buy a few yards of fabric. You can often find really cheap fabric at Walmart.



Good luck!

Walmart had $1 yard fabric. You can tape it to a wall or if you have a wide hallway you can drape it ofer a showercurtain rod mounted in the hall. I have also used a nylon cloth shower curtain purchased at target for $4. Just iron wrinkles out of the fabric especially if it is used flat not gathered. Have Fun!

if you wanted to get some good patterns, simply throwing or flicking paint at sheets would get some great random patterns, and fun to do in the process lol



for casual forget a backdrop see if you can just get the photos taken in your garden or in your room, doing woteva u and ur friends normally do



formal - vases, sweeping staircase, flowers in your hair, on sofas that kind of thing



hope this helps
