Many photographers or photo studios do not receive a high volume of daily customers so they have to spread the overhead costs for their business. Portrait photographers need a large collection of different backgrounds and places where their customers would like to have their photos taken with. The cost of buying printed backdrops or suitable location settings can be expensive and time consuming. Recycling old backdrops cannot supply the photographer or the customer with quality pictures even if they use modern props. New backdrops are costly and may not suit everyone. There is an affordable alternative to this dilemma and that is using green screen software.
There is no longer need to shoot pictures on location or outside. The weather can sometimes put an hindrance on having the photographs taken which is out of the control of the photographer. Weather reports are not always accurate and you cannot afford to waste any time or money on bad shots. Indoor shots can be difficult to maneuver because of space limitations or lighting. Printed backdrops are limited and a client may want a more exotic background. Most companies only carry common locations that are not too well known or famous. Companies can print a requested backdrop but it may only be used once.
An easy solution would to use professionally printed backdrops or muslin. They are available in various indoor and outdoor patterns. But again there is a very expensive price tag attached to these. All of these problems can disappear with the use of green screen technology and editing software. Photographers can use green screen technology and this works great because you can ask the client what would they like and you can provide it. Whatever they may have in mind you can easily provided with green screen software.
You can schedule the photo shoot at another time so you can have time to collect the exact background images that the client requested. You can take the pictures yourself of order them online from a massive selection. When the photograph has been taken, in front of the green screen, next is the chroma key software application. This easy application remove the green screen and inserts the amazing background that client asked for. Once the client has seen the finished product and loves it, the images are printed. There is no wasted time, money or effort. It is easy and affordable to use green screen technology.
