Executing a powder shoot can be an huge ordeal…
There are five big problems with most powder shoots:
- So many things to coordinate including timing of the blast with the athlete’s pose and expression.
- Perfect discharge of the right amount of powder and your capture.
- Dealing with and cleaning up a huge mess.
- Athlete’s clothing changes and make up touch ups.
- What about a team powder shoot? Multiply these problems times 15 for team composites. Yikes!
This set is the perfect solution. Your only job is to get the best athlete capture and this background does the rest. The minute you add your photo you’ll see how this background instantly brings every photo to life. Then, with a few layer adjustments this backdrop makes you look like a skilled Photoshop artist.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a special program to customize these backgrounds?
Before you can work with the templates and backgrounds you need to make sure you have Photoshop or Elements. To get a free trial you can go to Adobe.
While I’m on the subject of Photoshop I might mention an exciting change Adobe made recently. Photoshop went to a subscription model. Why is that exciting? Well it’s good news for you because you can have the latest full version of Photoshop and Lightroom for the price of a couple of Starbucks Lattes each month. It’s only $9.99.
What is the difference between the Photoshop and Elements versions of backgrounds?
The Elements version of all the templates can be used in Photoshop and Elements. However, the Photoshop version cannot be used in Elements.
The reason is because Photoshop is a more robust program offering more features and layer FX. Also Photoshop gives the option to organize layers in folders.
Elements does not have the option for folders, so when you open a layered background with folders in Elements you cannot get to the layers in the folders, making it difficult to work with.
The good news is that you will have access to both versions in your download area so if later you upgrade to Photoshop, you can go to the member area and download the Photoshop version of your products.
How do I remove a person from the background?
I have created a video on how to remove a person from the background. You can view it here.
One of my favorite options for removing a person from the background is to pay to have it done, you can do that for as low as 75 cents. I’ve rated several background removal services in this post.
