So happy you guys like this! Who wants to see more DIY videos? Comment below with some things you wanna see :)

[@candydhaliwal3596]

more back drop videos? Possibly some you can do in the dark with lights and great video!!

[@kylesimmons6692]

Me... & u cute LOL

[@kerenperl3248]

Jessica Kobeissi yesss, you are amazing

[@vilazone3027]

This is super. Pls do more of these videos. They are really helpful

[@RayonHutson]

DIY studio/ring light

[@amosk24]

You almost lost me with the jump rope. Thanks for confirming, no physical activities in this video 😂

[@staybeautiful9131]

Now “studio lights for less than 10$” 😭

[@PersonalPromises]

staybeautiful You can find very bright clamp work lights at homedepot! They are very popular in the filmmaking KZbin community and are around $10 - $15 :)

[@JessicaKobeissi]

Ok hmm this might take some time but let me work on it, HAHAHA

Window light is for free ;)

[@amysocool7]

Jessica Kobeissi PLEASE

[@maeflowermew5595]

I can get you down for a DIY diva ring for $23 after tax... You will need: From Dollar tree, -Floral wire wreath base -zip ties -poster board -aluminum foil -wax paper From Walmart, - LED rope light in a "daylight" or "soft white" color ..about 6' one - extension cord cable Should be able to get all that for $20-$25 Then if you want to, attach it to a tripod

[@IIQueenOfHeartsII]

Can you try something like this like : Use cereal boxes, milk cartons, chip wrappers basically food trash and use it as a backdrop. That probably made no sense but I'm just sharing my thoughts because i really like that you share your tips instead of being so secretive about what your career is.

[@seshemttchetab19]

IIQueenOfHeartsII yes yes yes your dye sŷe yes eye dye ye eys yes

[@VieraVida]

I love this idea! Would you mind if I gave it a shot?

[@IIQueenOfHeartsII]

Diversity Voiced not at all! I actually eat a lot of snacks so I thought maybe recycle and make it as a backdrop, but honestly I'm not good at taking that big risks

[@geevision1015]

That’s a good idea you have I will probably will make a video of that. That makes planting of sense to me

[@trippingkanga134]

IIQueenOfHeartsII well I found my next project yippee

[@jackson-lg9uu]

she didn't include the cost of the house

[@Leyla.Stefani]

hahahahaha

[@sharobb6904]

youtubers always know exactly how to make me laugh 😂👏👏

[@nottedeliziosaa]

Yeah that video a SCAM

[@user-ef5nd3ho3n]

exactly :'(

[@lara8698]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@RandomEllz]

To people asking why the re uploaded she said on her Instagram story it uploaded by mistake and wasn’t meant to premier at that time haha! Been looking forward to seeing it 😄

[@AidinRobbins]

This is so creative, love your channel and style!

[@Terminal122]

well for only 5$?! No complaints.

[@sravan8428]

Terminal122 unless u r exlecting the studio light too

[@Terminal122]

Well you can always use natural daylight from the window.

[@Naomi-dn5ze]

Terminal122 and then 1000 for a camera

[@katrina6236]

@@Naomi-dn5ze or just use your phone camera and edit the photos on any free outlet you can use

[@BratvaTV]

the pink one looked like she was standing in front of a murder scene. lol

[@kemisjourney]

😂😂😂

[@hadiyyaedah-tally7302]

this has helped me learn how creative you can get when it comes to photography, and you’re one of my favourite photographers. thank you! ❤️

[@JessicaKobeissi]

I ate your forehead thank you so so much!!!

[@theaverageman3332]

Who else subscribed because she said “there’s no physical activity on this channel”? 😂

[@Atreyu_art]

YOOOO Jess this was a killer video today! I was literally shocked that the back drop turned out so dope from the supplies you used. I'm so excited to give this a try in my house lol. You always are getting so artsy I love it. I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day and keep up the amazing work!

[@JessicaKobeissi]

Alex Iby thank you so so much! Seriously I’m really happy you like it, always nice to have some options when it comes to expensive photography equipment :) appreciate you watching and supporting it!

[@Atreyu_art]

You are most welcome Jess! After I grow my channel a bit more it'd be awesome to do some sort of photo challenge collab with you!! =) Have a lovely day!!

[@26Sundrops]

I'll definitely keep the plastic table covers in mind! I'd love to paint on stripes or maybe overlay like a tulle/mesh or something :o

[@alexrubio6097]

Was waiting for the re-upload lol the wait was worth it 😺 you’re my favorite photographer 🙌🏽👍🏽

[@JessicaKobeissi]

3c Thewolf aw you’re my favorite! Thank you so much, I’m so honored!

[@AntonioGarcia-ig8et]

This is amazing, I've been looking for some cool backdrop ideas and the fact that this one could be done easily and cheap is awesome! Thanks Jessica ❤

[@VisualifeGaming]

This was an amazing DIY tbh!

[@JessicaKobeissi]

TH3EDST3R thank you so much!!!

[@kodiskye3322]

But then you need the $1,000 camera....

[@destinyloewen8954]

Dakota Skyes not necessarily, I got one for 500-600 dollars. Plus these days you can get really good pictures with your phone

[@kodiskye3322]

Destiny Loewen okay, well $500 is still a lot. And if you don't have the $700 iPhone to shoot good videos on because many other brands don't have good video quality, or only have enough storage to film half of a KZbin video. So there's still a lot of money going to this. But if you have any suggestions please let me know 😊

[@yeahitsme4770]

Spent $200 on my canon 7D 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@maeflowermew5595]

My cellphone cost $180 USD and has the same camera as the Samsung Galaxy S7

[@maeflowermew5595]

The gear really doesn't make the photographer. It's about being resourceful and knowing your trade.

[@Wildopal]

I've never even thought of a cheap tablecloth! This video helped me so much!

[@mariaomar9478]

"how easy was that ,it was like going to the gym and doing nothing" that comment 😂😂😂

[@LivingCaribbean]

it's amazing how fast your channel has been growing. i loved this video and i usually love your vids and sense of humor. thank you jessica!

[@bongsbeauty8194]

This the best video I’ve ever seen, I love how she always goes straight to what we came from

[@jenniferdelgado3191]

My birthday is this Saturday and quarantine has me stuck at home, I wanna do this 😩

[@genevaxo]

how was it?!

[@jenniferdelgado3191]

Oma Sorochi it went soooo niceee :))

[@dilshadshah1010]

[@beth8225]

IM SO HAPPY FOR THIS VIDEO YOU HAVE NO IDEA

[@erikkasteele9773]

You're killing it, Jess!! One of my favorites videos that you've made. Keep the content coming. 😊

[@marymanson]

I'm really having a "why didn't I think of this?!!" moment Love the video girl this is such a smart and easy way. Thanks for sharing

[@sunflowerwhiskeyfarm2705]

I love this video!! This is an awesome idea! This will help me out and save some money on backdrops and equipment. Thanks! :)

[@JessicaKobeissi]

Breanna Emberlin glad I could help! Thanks so much for watching Breanna!!

[@pandawillgames]

That shirt looks SO comfy omg

[@brieaunnasworld6609]

Yes!!!! I got a wood sitting stool from Goodwill thrift store for 6.99 and a circle tablecloth for 6.99 as well! This video helps me set up my newfound items for photos!

[@brittanymortimer8140]

So clever! Thank you for this. I'm going to use this for my wedding. After the ceremony we're having everyone wait to take pictures with us in a rented room at the hotel and this DIY back drop is perfect

[@RebeccaJadeGibson]

This is... AMAZING! a total life saver! I need to do this! Bit of a stupid question, but is there a particular way to dab the paint onto the table covers? Or is it just dab away without any specific idea of how it will look in mind?

[@JessicaKobeissi]

Rebecca Jade at first I just dabbed it directly but if you actually hold it down and swipe it around it makes it look even cooler! I also took paint and splattered it randomly from the sponge just to make lots of different textures :)

[@RebeccaJadeGibson]

amazing, I'll definitely try this! Thank you!

[@francinetuazon8483]

thank u for this ❤️

[@phantasieluxphotography1272]

I just love it! I always have to rent a studio and is kind of difficult for me sometimes. This is genius!. Yesterday, I made a photoshoot with a cloth I found in a store, put it in my yard and it worked for me. But the texture I can give it to it with just some paint, it's amazing. I admire you Jessica!

[@botakd6612]

Thank you Jessica! This is literally the best studio set up i've seen!

[@prity1765]

Earlyy! i love your videos.

[@JessicaKobeissi]

PRITY thank you so much for watching it so early :))

[@prity1765]

Jessica Kobeissi No worries ☺☺☺☺☺

[@lornawindsor7819]

Love this! Do you have any cheap hacks for lighting (other than natural of course) or inexpensive options? Love your videos!

[@EdgarsDrusts]

Sun is free and you can just reflect it with any reflective white surface.

[@lornawindsor7819]

Yeah that's what I meant by natural light. I meant if your in a place where there is no sunlight and you only have crappy overhead lights. Thank you so much for the tip though!

[@roniL2000]

I know its an investment but there are some cheap speedlights on amazon OR constant light setups as well. A lot of those work pretty well and get you pretty good light! I recommend the Speedlight because you can use it in more scenarios!

[@DoA121]

Literally this is what I was looking for! I don't have much self confidence so I wanted to try taking self portraits in my bedroom. This is really helpful! Thank you very much :)

[@daisy2720]

OMG you seriously read my mind! I was planning to do this for my next shoot LOL loved it!

[@thefrenchmode]

Awesome idea ! Thanks Jessica ! Would you have tips for budget-friendly lighting ( for when the natural light isn't great ) thanks! xx

[@lillian_space]

The French Mode It's amazing what a desk lamp can do! LED worklights are also great.

[@thefrenchmode]

Lillian Simpson thank you so much! Between my videos and photos, the struggle is real ! I'll try to find some cheap desk lamps maybe clip ones! Thanks gain Lillian x

[@lillian_space]

The French Mode No worries! I've been finding them so useful, and you can get excellent results if you have a shelf or something to put the light on, or someone to hold it up 😊

[@EliasTaborda]

"don't worry, there's no physical activity on this channel" 😂

[@harolddunn2863]

I am a photographer from the Deep South. I create stuff like this all the time. I love videos like this!

[@ilenemack]

Thank you. I have been trying to brainstorm how to set up my backdrop in a more elegant way. I’m going to definitely try this later.

[@julianfemyontiveros5266]

Notif squad💕💕

[@cheytaylor1928]

Femy Ontiveros nice profile pic 😂😍

[@DinoCreations]

Still now I'm a mobile photographer after watching most of the video's from this channel I'm planning to buy a DSLR camera so please @jessica or someone suggest me a good camera name

[@OneFocusPhotos]

Dino Creations Canon 6D hands down for starting. Amazing quality at an affordable price.

[@ullishw8098]

But has a really weak autofocus and only 9 or so AF points. For that money, I would rather buy a crop sensor high end camera.

[@DinoCreations]

What's its cost in $

[@ullishw8098]

I'm sure you can google that yourself ;) but the 6D is somewhere around 1400 dollars and for that money you get a really really good crop sensor camera.

[@DinoCreations]

Ohh 1400 $ 😨😨 How much crop sensor camera costs

[@victoriawaterhouse9098]

Love this concept! using everyday household objects & the results are amazing😍!

[@welovethemallthesame1125]

After subscribed your channel for more than 2 months, then you become my favourite photographer! You always inspires me! Thank you for upload this amazing DIY. Can't wait to try this! :)

Hello i’m new on your Channel,please can you make a video on how to take full lenght body picture please,im beginner 🤗.with love from france..other people can feel free to help me thx

[@Cosplayhelper]

This is amazing I will 100% save this!! I have very little space in my flat and this is exactly what I need!!!

[@hwphotography1731]

This was amazing. Thank you so much for this! It goes to show that with creativity you should never not be working!!

[@art_i_hunt]

This background is not only cheap looks also cheap too.

[@blueorchid3240]

I agree, it does look cheap. Not feeling the whole look of it , if I’m honest 🤷‍♀️

[@erikao.4998]

Agree. Looks like a garbage bag. But A for effort!

[@lacklusterdreamer6446]

No matter how ugly or cheap a background is, it all comes down to the photographer's skills.

[@ohmyprettygirl]

Agreed. The photos themselves looked nice but the backdrops were still very obviously cheap. But its a good effort, Id probably like to try this with an ironed bed sheet or something

[@blueorchid3240]

lackluster dreamer in this case, it still looks ugly in the photos. I can’t believe so many people think this looks good 🤯🤭

[@juanquispe3494]

This looks like your wearing your orange diy backdrop as a blouse lol

[@alexismariephotography7581]

You are my favorite person to watch for these videos. I appreciate you so much oml.
