50th Birthday Digital Backdrops

What is in this collection

Golden scenes include a hand-laid gold leaf wall with two tall columns of white orchids, black and gilded wrought-iron chateau gates with a tree-lined avenue beyond, and a wooden arch of sunflowers, wheat and gold balloons in a sunlit orangery. Grand evening sets include a black grand piano in a black and gold striped salon, a short flight of black marble steps with brass rails, wide manor terrace steps with lanterns at dusk and a black marble deco fireplace under a gilded sunburst. Travel and coastal scenes include a safari lodge deck over the savanna at sunset, a stone terrace on a Venetian canal at dusk and a shingled beach house veranda with blue hydrangeas.

50th birthday photo booth backgrounds and portraits

Gold runs through this collection: fifty is often marked with gold, as a golden anniversary is. The gold leaf wall and the chateau gates are the most celebratory 50th birthday photo booth backgrounds; the piano salon, the marble steps and the fireplace suit a formal evening; and the safari deck, the canal terrace and the beach house suit a travel or holiday theme. Photographers can use the canal terrace and the fireplace as 50th birthday photography backgrounds for couple portraits. Several scenes are shared with anniversary, the piano and the marble steps with black and gold birthday, and the piano and manor terrace with 40th birthday.

Tips for using these scenes

• Bring the whole family in. The black marble steps and the manor terrace fit seven or more, so they suit family groups across generations; the piano salon, chateau gates, orangery, safari deck, beach house veranda and deco fireplace fit four to six.
• Seat older guests. The beach house veranda has a wicker sofa, the safari deck has safari chairs, the deco fireplace has two velvet armchairs and the marble steps take seated people too. Shoot seated guests on a chair of the same height as the one in the scene.
• Match the gold light. The gold leaf wall is lit warmly from above, the safari deck and chateau gates from the left in low golden light, and the beach house veranda from the right in neutral daylight. Warm your subject's white balance for the gold scenes.
