Your videos have always been an incredible gift to me. Several times I have created simply amazing portraits for others after coming across one of your videos on lighting, how to use strobes, and now backgrounds. Thanks so much for your contribution to helping us create our best. You are an incredible instructor and our lives are so much richer for it.

Great tutorial, no nonsense and great result. Wanted to buy a tobacco and olive background but that stuff is expensive. I'm gonna try this! Thanx for sharing.

Brilliant....

Sean, always grateful for your tutorials. Thank you!

I absolutely love your tutorials! Thanks for the continued inspiration Sean.

It's soo simple yet something I would never think of! Thank you for all the portrait videos Sean! Seriously, this free content is absolutely amazing and gives me incentive to shoot portraits and have fun with photography again :)

Simply superb. So simple and yet so effective. Well done.

This is terrific. No fluff and dead simple to follow! Thank you

I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge. Gratitude!

So easy following how you have shown, great job.

Thank you for sharing this technique, Sean! I've been debating buying an expensive looking backdrop and with results like these I probably won't need to!

Well that was magical. So simple as well! I learned a lot from how you identified light direction on your background assets and adjusted appropriately. I've been shooting team portraits with an RGB LED on a grey back wall for a coloured gradient, but grey will be so much more flexible in post of course...might try converting old backdrops to B&W before recolouring but I'm guessing I'll have some colour cast remaining! Thank you for sharing these gems Sean.

This is fantastic! So simple but perfect instruction and extremely useful.

I love how the blur brought in the correct amount of bokeh in your "backdrop". I am looking forward to trying it out on the images from a recent studio shoot.

Awesome video!

Sean great video! I've been using a black and white foldable backdrop and I still want to get a gray foldable backdrop but your video has opened a whole new color background world! thank you so very much!

Awesome thanks Sean

Thank you so much, Mr. Sean

Thank you!

Another excellent video tutorial!

Fabulous, you make it all sound achievable and i will be working on it this afternoon. Thank you again

Thanks Sean, nice work as always !

love these type of videos

hi Sean thank you, i have thought about making my own back drops by photographing interesting walls ext, i am amazed at the A.I. in photoshop far better than the Gimp but in the end The Gimp gets me there again thank you

I've tried to buy many backgrounds in the past, sold off most and follow this process as its fat more coat effective, great tutorial many thanks Sean.

Thank you so much for your tutorials. They are really helpful!

Now That Was Really Awesome!!!

That's exactly how I shot and edited my profile picture! Great tip to save alot of money on backgrounds.

Brilliant content Sean! Greetings from Bristol

I learned so much .

Very nice!

Shot for some very cool money-saving ideas, Sean!

Wonderful tutorial. Thanks so much.

Superb. I have long wondered how to do this!

You have amazing hair Sean !

Very helpful I learned a lot!

Thanks! Thank you awesome videos.

Thanks a lot for your portrait serious it is sooooo helpful🙏🙏🙏👍

Really great tutorial!!

Great video!!

This is freaking genius.

Hi Sean, how are you? Thanks for this video! I have to learn all these tricks 😉

I think I speak for all of us when I say thank you for putting this together (for free). This mini set could easily be something that would be a paid for tutorial elsewhere, so thanks a lot. What might have been useful is if you had any recommendations for where to go and get some textures?

very usefull - thx for that

Impressive

This is fantastic! Would you have any resources you'd recommend for finding quality textures along the lines of the one you used in this tutorial?

Now to figure out how to pull this off in Affinity Photo. I love the tutorial. Do you happen to have a sample photo we can use to practice on? Thank you.

Thank you Shaun ! What budget backdrop would you recommend to start?

What a timing. Today I shot portraits with background full of wrinkles. I'm going to test this tomorrow. Thx.

Great video! Is there a way to automate this and apply it to multiple images? Say you've done a portrait shoot for a company and need to apply this background to all images of that shoot. Would that be possible?

Great video. You have saved me hundreds of pounds in backdrop costs. Many thanks, Sean.

You're welcome:)

Great tutorial as always Sean. Your content is gold! Where can you get textured backdrops like the one you use here? Shutterstock? Thanks again!

Cool

In instead of adding texture, is your technique compatible with smoothing/cleaning backgrounds, e.g.., removing wrinkles, using the mixer brush tool also (and not mixing the subject also)?

Does anyone know where to get reasonably detailed textures like what Sean used in this video?

Come for the interviews, stay for the tutorials.

Great video once again Sean. Where is a good place to get textures?

Came here to ask this too 😄

Greetings all. I can't get a background to add to my original image as described at around 3.49 in this image. I drag the background image onto the image I wish to add it to but nothing happens. It looks very simple to do in this vid but I am clearly missing something. Anyone able to enlighten me as to what I am missing? Cheers, Will

Wow I’ve watched several of these video on adding textures to backdrops in photoshop and this is the easiest and BEST one I have ever seen! Excellent job teaching by the way…thank you.

👍👍

🥇

My wallet thanks you Sean!

Do you teach painting on computers.

The comments here are testimony to humans being much more loving than media convey.

👍☕️

The incredible gift of time , anti-anxiety, stripped of BS and money saving tip....

That masking needed abit of work the highlight in the right side of the hair stuck out like anything to me...

Me: mmmm insteresting title

Nice result, but I would've used smart objects so everything is editable. And a lens blur instead of the gaussian blur.

Great video!
