How to use this background
Place a cut-out subject in front at any size; the mottling is spread evenly, so it crops to portrait for headshots or landscape for groups without a visible hotspot.
It is shot straight on and fills the whole frame, with no floor or horizon, so it works as the base layer of a photo booth template, behind cut-out subjects, or as a fill for text and frames. Crop or scale it freely. See photo booth backgrounds and how to use digital backdrops.
