From a photographic point of view, the InspiraCloth, JerseyCloth, and PrismaCloth are, for the most part, visually the same (see details of cloth types below). These 3D backdrops include the floor and background portions printed together on the same piece, using forced perspective to draw the subject into the environment. Sizes are close approximations. Small variances may occur due to hemming, cutting, rod pockets and other finishing work on the fabric.
We know our prices can't be beat, so rest easy knowing that you don't have to shop every site on the internet to get the best deal. If you have any questions that aren't answered below, please reference our backdrops FAQ page or contact us directly.
JerseyCloth: Similar to durable sweatshirt material (but not stretchy like sweatshirts), JerseyCloth backdrops are seamless, machine washable, colorfast, and wrinkle-free. JerseyCloth is a 100% polyester heavyweight material with a soft, knapped backing. Dye-sublimation printing gives it a brilliant, colorfast image while still making it washable/dryable. Since it is made for photography, image surface has a non-glare matte finish. Because of JerseyCloth's wrinkle-resistant nature, it can be stored folded, rolled, or stuffed in a bag/plastic crate. Comes with a top-side rod pocket unless otherwise requested, ships folded.
InspiraCloth: Photo Pie's luxurious seamless, washable, wrinkle-resistant, background cloth. Double-faced satin made of 100% polyester fiber. Dye-sublimation printing method makes it machine washable and dryable, yet with rich, vibrant colorfastness. It is made for photography, so image surface has a non-glare, matte finish. Because of InspiraCloth's wrinkle-resistant nature, it can be stored folded, rolled, or stuffed in a bag/plastic crate. Comes with a top-side rod pocket unless otherwise requested, ships folded.
PrismaCloth: Photo Pie's economical background material made of 100% polyester oxford cloth. Dye-sublimation printing gives it a vibrant, colorfast image while still making it machine washable/dryable. Since it is made for photography, image surface has a non-glare matte finish. Because of PrismaCloth's wrinkle-resistant nature, it can be stored folded, rolled, or stuffed in a bag/plastic crate. Comes with a top-side rod pocket unless otherwise requested, ships folded.
Care: Photo Pie backgrounds are shipped folded. Any wrinkles created during shipment are easily removed with a garment steamer or in a hot dryer with a damp cloth. Steaming and care instructions are included with your background order.
Sizing: We offer various standard sizes of backdrops full size with wall/sweep. For normal studio shooting, we recommend the full size, full sweep, backdrops. It is the forced perspective of the full image that makes the backdrop look realistic. We recommend the Photo Booth style shortened backdrops only for special occasion, up-close photography; these do not include the floor/sweep portion. We offer the standard sizing as listed on each product. If you have specific sizing needs, any of our backgrounds can be ordered custom-sized. Please contact us at more.info@photopiebackdrops.com
