Mobile Portrait Setup

Since this was picked up by Inovativ and Tethertools on Instagram, I have been getting loads of questions from people asking for a break down of what was involved.

This rig was built to allow me to photograph portrait of about 50 people really quickly with different backgrounds. The setup was used on a shiny floor and rolled around like a dream. We did try adding sandbags with a couple of U hooks but the added weight actually made the rig more unstable when it was being rolled around.
