I was looking for a suitable backdrop to photograph Ikebana style flower arrangements - a hobby I am just getting started at. My first thought was a shooting table. They seem to be immposible to purchase during the pandemic. I then went to my local cabinet maker to see if he could cobble something together with mylar and plywood. He was very busy and hasn't gotten back to me on that! Then I stumbled upon Mandy giving a how to lesson on you tube and as soon as I figured out what system she was using for backdrops I placed an order for 7 surfaces.
They came well packed and were super easy to set up. I was up and shooting in no time! I love the weathered wood and slate combo! Dark, moody and great contrast. I did have some issues taming the reflections off the slate backdrop , but I am sure that will get easier with practice. I used a soft box, white reflector and a black flag for the sample photo.

I photograph mainly white printables, this dark grey/black is perfect for texture and makes the white pages pop!

Very happy with my purchase and how great my photos look! I can’t wait to take more pictures :)
Jennifer F.
Absolutely the best!!
Stora K.
Love the combination of Weathered Wood & Cement!
Erlyn A.
I love these replica surfaces. They are so versatile and smart and allows for so much creative freedom when taking photos. They’re also easy to clean and store. So easy to purchase several designs because they really are the best backdrops for photos especially for small businesses. Thanks, replica surfaces!!!
Ruby C.
We love how easy RS is to use as a busy business, it’s helped save time on photoshoots + creation. Thank y’all!!
Becky A.
I. LOVE. THESE. BACKDROPS!
I was on the fence for so long and I am glad I finally purchased some. I have struggled almost constantly with my jewelry photos for my website, and Insta. These surfaces are a DREAM, and coupled with all the great tutorials on Youtube, I am making progress with my photos. I daresay I even like this photo! It’s a work in progress but sooo much better than I was doing before. Stop waiting and purchase your own Replica Surfaces. You will not regret it!
Nicole A.
I’ve been dreaming about owning replica surfaces for a couple years now and am so happy I finally invested in them. They are going to be a game changer in my product photography!
Jennifer M.
This is just what we needed to take our photos to the next level for our bakery!
Melissa B.
These surfaces are amazing and make my life so much easier!! Gone are the days of rolling out paper backdrops and dealing with wrinkles and figuring out how I'm going to makeshift a base and a background and achieve a cohesive look! The shot I took was just a quick sample to check my lighting and I've never had a more beautiful test shot!
Brooke B.
I LOVE the board(s). I have other boards but these have less glare and the quality is perfect!
Hillary L.
So grateful for these surfaces! Totally leveling up my business! I was using posterboard before and it was not ideal. These add texture and beauty!
Kevin H.
I love the flexibility of my replica surfaces. I can shoot from home or take with me on location. I can shoot on my kitchen table, in a chefs kitchen or in the corner of the restaurant. This particular shot, I put the surfaces in my light box where customer loved the even light.
Jenelle B.
I love the detail in the design! Looks textured and natural. Huge fan of Replica Surfaces and I'm looking forward to collecting the whole set! They also clean super easily with just water and a towel. Easy to store and assemble.
Kristine K.
The weathered wood is a perfect, rustic looking surface for my original bluebonnet ornaments. Thank you for allowing me to be creative when photographing my art!
Dana B.
Weathered Wood is a lovely neutral with just the right amount of texture. It looks great paired with both light surfaces and darker surfaces - depending on the look I'm going for.
Tiffany W.
As you can see in the photo, these stands make all the difference in being a helping hand! Genius!!!!
Tiffany W.
These Replica backgrounds make my photos happy....and my audience!
Amanda R.
These boards are very much high quality tools. The images are excellent quality, the materials are sturdy yet not heavy or baggy, and the textures look real. I’m an experienced card maker, but (still) a total amateur when it comes to photographing my work and achieving flattering light. I hope to use these boards to move into the intermediate zone.
Trina H.
Love the boards!! Look forward to getting the tote to put them in!!
Michelle G.
I love this product! It's made my photography tasks so much easier. (No more fighting glare from glossy tables and countertops, and no more lugging around heavy props.) I'm currently using Weathered Wood and Concrete--plus a lot of natural light--to show off the warm tones of our wood and brass items.
Timothy O.
A big advantage of Replica Surfaces is how quickly I can change those surfaces. I can go from a shiplap background to the dark weathered wood and get a completely different feel to the image. The simple stands make it easy to spin the surface and take advantage of the amazing variety of texture and shades within the weathered wood 'planks'. Love the versatility!
Simone S.
The Replica Surface is so beautiful! As a photographer, I use it to photograph my products and share with my clients. It is great to showcase your products in a professional manner! I intend to get different surfaces to play more in the holidays with baking and food photography!
ann D.
Love the quality. It gives a nice contrast and texture to the photo.
Jennifer H.
It is so easy to use. It’s light but sturdy. It looks pretty natural and the surface is durable. I will be getting more.
Dayana T.
Amazing product!
Dayana T.
Absolutely love it. Great product.
Laci V.
It took me awhile to finally take the plunge to purchase a replica surface but really glad that I did. I'm really impressed with the quality of the product and excited to use these for our companies lifestyle imagery needs.
Nikhat K.
Just love the print and the texture .Very easy to use.Great product!
JJ B.
I have several boards and love all of them! Each of them are well made and so realistic! I really love the consistent look that these boards give to my pics. Weathered wood is one of my faves from the darker colors because it has so much texture and depth. To anyone wondering if they are worth the $, they are!
Lindsey C.
I love it! Better in person! I can't wait for a proper shoot to see how it works out.
allison r.
I really struggled to find a clean backdrop around my house. My photos looked pretty amateur. Now it doesn't matter if my home is a mess because the Surfaces always look good.
Evan W.
Replica Surcafes are just what I've been needing to bring my historical documentation photography to life! No more boring lifeless background. Every shot tells the story of the item!
Karen U.
What a great resource and so easy to use! Thanks for guiding us through and helping us learn how to use your products best!
Cathleen C.
It is SO HELPFUL. I have zero aesthetic surfaces in my home! The instant I put the pic through Lightroom, it was like a miracle: went from blah to BANG. Love it. Probably gonna order another one.
Shanise L M.
See for yourself! It displays beautifully! We at JOHARI & LOU Artisan Soul Stones love it!
Audrey S.
Just getting into food photography and never had real backgrounds. Love this weathered wood. So realistic and photographs well. I've been messy, but the background cleans up very easily. Great size and easy to store!
Brandy S.
The surface is just beautiful - a smoky grey wood that photographs beautifully. It is by far my most favorite surface purchased to date.
Tatiana L.
I've only used the surface once so far, but I love how sturdy they are and easy to clean. In the past I've used foam core board with contact paper, which was much more flimsy than these and I had to avoid the lines where the contact paper met. Excited to use these in all my food photography!
Richard L.
Love the color and price
Sedona T.
Replica has every surface we need to capture beautiful product photography!
Summer T.
I love how Replica Surfaces makes my pieces pop! Thank you!
Susan E.
My new Replica Surfaces are wonderful! I recently received my first order of 5 panels, and yesterday had a great time photographing vegetables and fruit with them. They are exactly as advertised -- lightweight, realistic looking, and creatively interchangeable. Thank you!
Susan
Briseida W.
Absolutely in love with my new replica surface boards! This product has taken my photos from drab to FAB! I will definitely recommend this to all my friends and family and be coming back for more!
Natalie M.
I am so happy to be a part of the Replica Surfaces family! These boards are realistic, the perfect size, and very sturdy. They are easily wipeable, do not scratch, or bend. Basically they solve all my problems and I plan to order more surfaces ASAP. Also, the video tutorials are so valuable for a newb product photographer like me. Thankful to find this product no doubt!
Emily R.
Replica surfaces is a game changer! I've always liked photographing my work Ina real environment. The surfaces are easy to photograph, simple to use and transport. I will be buying more!
Adam L.
I love the quality and coloring. It was exactly as advertised and it works great. The reason I gave it a 3 is because I felt very cheated that the back of the surfaces was just branding. What a waste. For the same cost you could have made it white so the surfaces could have been reversible. I feel ripped off. Now I have to buy two more to do a white cyc. Then I need to have 4 backdrops to do the work that two could. A little disappointed with that.
Stefanie G.
I've tried other backgrounds and they've always been too small, too pixelly, or too fragile for daily use. These are a great size with high resolution graphics that work even for closeups. They can take a beating (I'm klutzy) and I will DEFINITELY be buying more!
Krys
When I first got this one in I wasn’t sure how I was going to like it, but now that I’ve used it, it photographs like a dream! Just gorgeous!
Really gives the dramatic touch I was looking for
Jonathan E.
Amazing product! Easy cleanup sturdy materials! Light weight and easy to transport. I do all of my shots on location so this feature is key! Highly recommend!
Valorei
Overall, I am very happy with the quality of the backgrounds. They're easy to clean, offer great options for visual interest, and pack up well for storage. My only recommendation to Replica would be to make these double-sided, even if just white. Not only would this create an additional value to customers, but also would be more eco-friendly. Fewer natural resources would be used to serve a single need.
Victoria M.
Absolutely LOVE my backdrops. The weathered wood and concrete go amazing together and have really changed the game for my product photography.
Aaron P.
The weathered wood look is awesome for showcasing a light-colored product or food. Great and realistic looking! I definitely recommend adding this to your bundle!
Michael C.
Excellent product! When I’m not shooting portraits, I shoot product and food photography. For this image are used the “Weathered Wood” surface which absolutely looks like the real thing, cleans up easy, stores easy, perfect size! I’ll be ordering the “Plaster” surface for my next project. Thanks for a great product!
Leslie F.
The portability of the Replica Surfaces makes it very easy to move to where there is the best natural light. The rigid and compact boards make fast work of getting a quick shot of products, no more big setup procedures! I am thrilled with how easy and portable they are.
Rowena L.
That’s one of the replica surfaces I have. I love it! It looks realistic. They’re thin and not heavy, easy to store. And the customer service is fast, courteous, and helpful! I will definitely be buying more designs.
Chay C.
So easy to work with!
Lisa A.
I love ALL the Replica Surfaces I have purchased. I’m a bit obsessed with all of them. I use them primarily for food photography and now they’ll be shining stars in our new food magazine. I can’t wait. Thank you for creating a quality product.
Michael M.
The quality is second to none! The boards have helped our online photo library of printed shirts reach the next level. We now have the confidence to post more pictures with the added touch of professionalism!
Amanda G.
LOVE LOVE LOVE! Will be ordering more from here. I am just starting my own baby and children clothing line (Amarah's Avenue) and the surfaces makes my photos look 10x more professional! You would think I took this photo with an expensive camera... NOPE! a little natural lighting from outside and my very own cell phone did the trick.
Noriko M.
I love this dark color background. Can’t wait to get more Replica Surfaces.
CHenoa W.
This was perfect for my dark and moody photos. The blog post on dark and moody photography was perfect timing. This was a game changer for us! I'm going to try with slate, cement, or concrete next!
Jessica E.
I love this for a darker more dramatic option.
Jheel M.
Love using these surfaces. Easy setup and clean up!
Katie E.
This surface gives a nice dark and moody feel. I love it! I spilled and it was sticky. This surface cleans up so easily.
Jazelle J.
Super impressed with these. I will definitely be ordering more.
Katie E.
I love how easy the corners were to use. It was helpful in creating a counter/backsplash look.
Sasha D.
Love the backdrops- a little finagling needed to get them into the mounts but they are perfect!
Dani F.
Beautiful dark wood background, tends to go a bit too blue but adds nice texture for vibrant colors.
Erick T.
Obsessed! You won’t regret purchasing these. Super light weight and easy to transport. No professional lighting needed, they work perfect with natural lighting. I’m obsessed!!! I will definitely be buying all the replicas!
John P.
Love the quality and detail about these surfaces!
Lauren D.
I’m still playing around (and of course my puppy wouldn’t stay still for a photo), but my first thought and love about these are their LIGHTNESS and the quality of the printing. I’m already itching to buy a third!
Donna V.
Great little stands that work amazing.
Donna V.
Love your products!!!
Nicole R.
I absolutely love my surfaces! I used the weathered wood and solid white to showcase my naked cake. I am so excited to take my photos of my cakes to the next level. I feel that these beautiful backdrops will help with growing my business. We all know that professional pictures help with your social media presence. The backgrounds are amazing. I am excited to make my dessert pictures @irizarry.bakes pop! Thanks so much for your fantastic products!
Patricia B.
I purchased the "weathered wood" to use for photography projects. My photos came to very nice and I received compliments from friends, family, and co-workers when I posted my pictures on Instagram. I also purchased the all white and slate background too. I am so please with how well these are made and my goal is to buy the entire collection.
Laniqua B.
I just love weathered wood for those moody shots! The dark surface gives me “an old cabin” feel. My husband even requested me to take pictures of some of his camping gear with this surface!
Neena H.
Great quality and very realistic. I've gotten so many compliments on how the boards themselves looked. Onlookers are very impressed. Using the stands is fairly easy and I love how lightweight they are.
Anita S.
Your surfaces are top quality. The colors are true and photographs perfectly. Easy to wipe clean. The size and weight are very versatile and convenient to use on location. Thank you for providing an excellent product.
Amanda R.
I love Replica Surfaces. They’re so beautiful and take my brand new blog to the next level. I like the moody look of weathered wood especially in contrast with some light props and plates!
Nicole S.
Weathered wood is a wonderful shade for letting vibrant colors really pop!
Srikala A.
When I first began blogging, I ordered backdrops on Amazon that arrived in a poster tube. Since the day I received them, I found myself constantly wishing for sturdy boards instead, and was SO glad to have discovered Replica Surfaces. It was 100% worth my investment. I live in a small apartment and am a budding blogger, so it really helps to have quality photo boards that are 1) easy to store, 2) provide a vertical photo option since they can be stood upright, and 3) aren't reflective! Everything from staging to shooting to editing has become SIGNIFICANTLY easier!
Marlena G.
Such a game changer in photography!!!! Everyone who knows me thinks I’ve been using random locations for pictures. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Kimberly G.
I absolutely love my new surfaces! I purchased the white marble and the weather wood. They completely took my photos to the next level! My photos now look professional and sophisticated. The products are of great quality! I have already gotten requests from friends asking where to get these boards.
Adriana .
I first heard of Replica through an Instagram add and then after that I couldn't get them out of my mind! I love that they are light weight, portable, easy to store, and look amazing! I am not a professional photographer, just love to snap pictures but they look good and get the job done.
CIndy L.
Beautiful with concrete for my photos!
Kim E.
Love having the option for a darker moody theme for my baked goods.

I was scrolling on Instagram on Black Friday and saw a gorgeous photo that I accidentally scrolled passed. I quickly went back up to see who had posted it and realized it was an add for these surfaces, I quickly realized I needed them when I looked through their page. I then ordered 4 surfaces, the cement, white marble, slate and weathered wood. I had been reading reviews and looking at pictures others had taken with them while my order was being delivered. I got so excited that the day they came in I did a shoot because I couldn’t wait any longer. When I unboxed them it was great to see how protected they were for shipping seeing as you wouldn’t want any marks or damages. They are all absolutely stunning and high quality! After the shoot I got nervous because I had gotten some citrus juice on it but I followed the recommendation of cleaning with 409 and a soft towel and it was perfect. The surface didn’t stain or get sticky. I will definitely be buying more in the future, especially since they mix and match so easily the possibilities are endless!
John M.
Much darker than shown online: First thing I noticed was that this is about 40% darker than I expected. If you look at the photo with the tea pot, you'll see how dark it really is. The overall look is very artificial as well. I'll be returning it.
Adrienne S.
Love it! You are the bomb and these surfaces are great and super easy to work with. Well done, sista!
Love, Addie
Lynn B.
Weathered Wood paired with Concrete are the ideal combination for my home studio set up. The warmth and the coolness together create a gorgeous backdrop and bokeh I always look for in a tight set up. It’s very easy move around my space taking advantage of natural window light.
The support stands are large and provide great stability. I love this setup so much!
Darren H.
Fantastic quality and responds to external light well! I didn't have problems of glare off the surface.
JOrge D.
Well. Honestly considering such a very high price, I was expecting something stronger .
The actual material can get dents or scratches very easily...
I’m not sure if I want to keep them or not...
Bobbi L.
Love the rich look of this wood for displaying my handmade cards. It's beautiful.
Marie H.
My order came quickly and packaged very well! I love the realistic wood background for my flat lays! So many different ways to style this.
Kyle P.
Awesome product. I was worried a first about lighting and reflections, but it does phenomenal. Almost like real stained wood. SO glad I found these!
