Zack Arias Style

Atlanta-based photographer and seminar master Zack Arias has been spreading the word in regards to light almost as far and wide as a certain Strobist fella named David Hobby. Recently on Zack’s blog he has laid out a series of posts on a white backdrop set-up that he likes to use.

White backdrops are nothing new in photography (Herb Ritts, Richard Avedon), but his Thrifty Tileboards from Home Depot not only gives his set-up some DIY cred, but adds an incredible amount of sizzle and polish to images done in this style.

I was commissioned to shoot a guitar for a page on the website of local audio post-production destination Bad Animals and was chomping at the bit to give it a try. The look is so cool that I’ll be trying it on a belated senior portrait session this weekend too. Check it out…
