How Many People fit Within the X-Drop and X-Drop Pro?Updated 21 days ago

Photographing Portraits

• When used with an 8' x 8' backdrop, the X-Drop Pro can comfortably fit 3 to 4 adults standing across.
• The original X-Drop holds 5' x 7' backdrops and can fit 1-2 people. 

The X-Drop Pro can provide enough horizontal width (8 feet) to fit about 3-4 adults shoulder-to-shoulder, or possibly 5 if subjects are posed at slight angles or closer together. The 8-foot height gives ample headroom, especially when shooting full-body portraits

Photographing Full Length

• When photographing full length with the X-Drop Pro, we would recommend photographing with an 8' x 13' backdrop.
• When photographing full length with the X-Drop original, we would recommend photographing with a 5' x 12' backdrop. 

You can also consider two X-Drop Pros side by side using the same background to double your usable width! Be mindful of the center seam, knowing you may have to digitally edit it out, or consider the traditional Background Support System.

Is the X-Drop and X-Drop Pro good for group photos?

• Yes, when used with an 8' x 8' backdrop, the X-Drop Pro is a great option for small group photos in studio or on-location settings. 
• The original X-Drop original holds 5' x 7' backdrops and is ideal for individual headshots or portraits of a couple. 

The X-Drop and X-Drop Pro are designed for portability, and the 8' x 8' backdrops work best for groups of 4 to 5 people. It’s especially popular for family, corporate, and school portraits where uniform framing and background consistency are important. Our wrinkle-resistant backdrop materials and easy setup make it ideal for photographers who need professional results on the go.
