missy_kay Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 <p>Hello everyone!</p> <p>I was wondering if anyone knows of where to buy cute backgrounds for wedding websites. I've tried googling and istockphoto, but it seems like I'm not finding the types of backgrounds other photographers have. I don't want to copy off of another photographer, but I'm just looking for something that will make the wedding images pop. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.</p> <p>God Bless,<br> Kay</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mirzaphotography Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 <p>I went to JoAnn Fabric for a friend of mine and found him an old sample of material (made for a curtain). It had strange victorian designs on it. I took a picture of it, then in photoshop washed away all the colors and used a few filters like emboss and charcoal to give it a rustic look.<br> Try something like that, you will be surprised how many different shapes and sizes there are all over the place.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ed_farmer Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 <p>Missy,<br> I simply used a photo of my own (why would you want to use someone else's work?) The photo is of the back of a bride's gown and I darkened it so that it is not distracting by itself.<br> Ed</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessica_burke2 Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 <p>Not sure if you have heard of Design Aglow, but they have great backgrounds for purchase there and they aren't too expensive. I think there is also a promo going on right now too....</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedding-photography-denver Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 <p>Bilal's idea sounds like the approach I might be more interested in. More creative and individual. No copies likely to pop up anywhere that way.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
