I like the black backdrop & the lighting is great! Where did you get the backdrop?
I edited your image in my PhotoShop for fun. Hope you don't mind. I cropped the floor a little, straightened the perspective and then had to straighten the right side a little more with a skew adjustment. At first I burned in the front edge of the floor, then dodged the midtones of the ceiling to make it appear as if it were daylight above it, then didn't like the floor burn so did a midtones dodge on it to balance a bit. I don't normally burn something and then dodge it back out like that (I would cancel the first edit, then do the next one), but this is for fun and it took me less than 10 minutes to accomplish all these edits.
Dodging the ceiling is also contrary to what we normally do since most of us shoot these during the day. SO instead we normally burn in brighter areas to balance and make them less distracting. In fact, shooting the booth in shade makes better sense so that the ceiling has no patchy bright and dark areas that distract our eye. But then shooting in the shade sometimes doesn't reveal the artwork very well, either. I might have dodged your ceiling a bit too much, but maybe not? Anyway, you are using lighting so I don't see how having a dark booth will matter as much. I'm never keen on black walls and pedestals. But that's my choice. Good luck with your shows. I like your booth and love that Wyoming plate on the banjo! WOOHOO!
Oh, home, home on the range. Where the deer and the antelope play (right oustide my studio door!)
Thank you Barrie you rock
Have a great time at Artigras! I see some friends there. Check out John Leben (a big AFIer, tell him hi from Barrie, the AFIer from Wyoming), Jay Canterbury (tell him hello from Barrie and A.B. in Wyoming), John Mascoll, Victor Edwards (tell him hello from Barrie and A.B. in Wyoming and that we really miss him and Kat), John Margerum, and Peggy Miller. I bet you won't have time to do all that. So just enjoy the show!
Send me an email whenever, if that's what you mean to do. merglennstudios@yahoo.com. Speaking of guitars, you ever run into James Floyd? WOOHOO!
Very nice. I do like the dark walls with your art and it makes a striking booth shot. However, I hear what the others are saying about the darkness on a dreary day. A bit of heresy: you could have different colored walls, floor, etc., when you are exhibiting, and you might consider that.
love the colors against the black background. would have to see it daylite vs overcast to address light issues. personally, having never cared for vertical display of guitars, I would put guitars on back wall at 45 degree or so angle. not sure about the pieces on rt above guitar. are they for sale? might be nice to spread very few of them around booth.
The floor looks strange. There are wrinkles on the fabric walls. The side walls can be squared up and the paintings above the guitar on the French wall look out of place. If at all possible booth shots should be taken during the day when natural light is coming through the tent roof.

I was hoping you would take a look. A big yes to all those things you have pointed out. The reflection in the daylight was making the "license plate art" blowout. We just kept shooting for 2hrs then when it got dark they looked better. The floor was cement driveway.
