OVERVIEW
Car photography is not so easy task. Different strategies are applied depending on whether they’re prowling on the roads or staying put right before your camera lens. Selecting the background is crucial; the suitable background can either provide your car in a very clear contrast or it can generate significant dramatic effect. You do not want to have a picture of your vehicle blending into the complicated city background or a sports car which looks stationary. Using the AKON line of car photography backdrops is an economical solution and will look great.
Vehicle Photo Booths
You have an awesome new car, or you have been to the biggest car show you have ever seen and you have snapped some fantastic images. Nevertheless, when you obtain them back or look at them on your camera’s screen, they appear nothing like the shots you observe in books & magazines. The paint does not sparkle & something appears wrong with the car photography backdrop. That automobile in your garage or the exotic on the greens of the golf course do not look as effective as in person. So what went wrong? It could have been several things because making an automobile look fantastic in photographs is part science and part art. The AKON photo booth curtains will help you take better photos – quickly & easily.
