Read moreAll our backgrounds are painted by Susy Grundahl in her Danish countryside studio. She paints, photographs and edits every production herself. Posters are then printed onto premium, museum-grade matte paper.
We print orders on demand to reduce waste, working with hand-picked print shops. Once an order is placed, it is directed to the closest such print shop in the area.
Our packaging is designed to have as little negative ecological impact as possible.
We wrap all our posters in paper and pack them in recycled, reinforced cardboard boxes.
No plastic packaging. It's a conscious decision.
Susy Grundahl is a well-known artist, photographer and cookbook author.
She founded Photo Styling Background in 2017 to make amazing backgrounds easily accessible to anyone, anywhere.
In 2021, her son Richard, a designer and photographer, joined the family business along with his friend Danny. They help Susy with operation of the website and logistics.
Susy paints all the photography backgrounds on the top floor of her house in Esbjerg, on the west coast of Denmark.
Every paint, brush and canvas is carefully selected to bring rich layers and textures to the final print.
We're honoured to have our photo backgrounds featured in these breathtaking publications.
It fills us with joy every time a talented photographer picks up our products and uses them to produce beautiful books and other artistic productions.

"These posters elevate my photography. Whether it’s lifestyle, product or food photography, the posters make the subjects stand out and add that little bit of extra that earlier seemed unachievable. I have so much fun creating photos with these."

As a photographer and cookbook author, Susy often looked for posters to enrich her photo styling. She couldn’t find any with the quality and aesthetics she needed - so in her studio she produced her own.
This led to Photo Styling Background, a small company that's founded to make amazing backgrounds easily accessible to everyone, anywhere.
