In this video I wanted to show you how to expand your photography using Digital Photo Studio Backgrounds. I receive a lot of emails from students that say they can’t afford a full studio with professional lights and expensive backdrops. Now with the help of technology and the new digital age that we live in…anyone can get in the game.
In the video below I’ll demonstrate how using these Digital Backgrounds and Props in Photoshop can be super simple.
The Digital Background we used in this video is available in our Digital Creations Club.
Check it out…Here!

I received some questions on how to add Digital backgrounds to the WorkFlow template.

Photoshop High Key Photography Background Technique January 20th, 2010
Recently I had one of our NPB Students email me and ask how to create a High Key Portrait in Photoshop. So…I decided to create a video demonstrating how you can easily achieve this look using Photoshop.
Keep in mind that you can receive these same results with certain lighting set ups in a studio setting. But…sometimes when you’re first getting started you may not have professional lighting equipment or maybe just need to enhance your High Key shots. This technique will help you achieve those beautiful High Key portraits that you and your clients will love.
Enjoy!
As always…please leave a comment below and let me know what you think. We would love to hear from you.

In this video, I walk you through a simple workflow process for using Digital Backgrounds And Props in Adobe Photoshop. There a many methods and techniques to create cut outs in Photoshop, but this is one of the easier methods.
Adding Digital Backgrounds and Props to your photography business will allow you to offer your clients more choices and not have it cost you a small fortune. Your portrait studio won’t have to store all the backgrounds and props anymore. You’ll just need a bigger hard drive on your computer.

That’s Right! You could actually get started without a studio at all using this method. Just go on location with your camera, basic lighting, white background and edit your pictures at your home office. Follow up with a proofing session of the clients portraits. Then….Make Some Sales!
Keep in mind that this does take practice, but if you follow this video and Take Action…you’ll be on your way.
