The simplest way to Make a Light Box with Paper

By Michael Zhang


There are several paths to make an easy light box at home employing a few materials that are both inexpensive and straightforward to draw together yourself. Pro studio kits can be expensive.

1: Paper

Knowing how to make alight box with paper is comparatively easy and easy. To start, you'll need three sheets of white A4 paper. White works best since it reflects the light better than other colors and it'll flood your photograph area with the most light. As a result, your pictures will appear more professional.

2: Folding

Take 2 bits of paper and fold them both in half. Assemble them together by attaching one folded half to the folded 1/2 the other sheet. This is often done with or without tape. In my set-up, I didnt use any tape and the paper provided enough support on its own. Stand the folded sheets up together on a table or desk upright so that there are three sides. You might also set in on the floor if that angle is more convenient when you add the light.

3: Background

Your DIY photography studio is just about prepared. Next, take your 3rd scrap of paper and attach it to where the folded areas meet on the other 2 sheets. Again, tape application is optional here also. Curve the bit of paper slightly so that it forms a seamless background for your lightboxes . It could take some adjusting, but the ultimate result should look like the picture below.

4: Light

With your mini studio assembled, now all you really need is to set-up your light in the right area. It works best if the light is closer to the light box in order that it floods the entire area; however , be happy to experiment. The vicinity relies upon the strength of the bulb. You can use a florescent or incandescent light bulbâ€"just do not forget to set the correct white balance in your camera before photographing anything.

5: Photograph object

Eventually, the final step is to take some photographs Since the surface area is little, you'll need to find smaller objects that may slot in the space. It's an ideal size for stuff like fruit, coins, stationary, small plants or other small objects for product photography. The DIY light box is reasonably helpful for both hobbyists and photo fans alike.
