Background Paper

No problems!

Their service is good too! Only dealt with them once, but they seemed like a good bunch of people! :)

Ordered a roll of paper from them around 5 months ago, came within a day or two....i STILL haven't opened the box!! :(
 
+1 for Castehill crafts, excellent service I have had 6 rolls from them now and all good.
 
Creativity are fantastic for service and the products seem preety good to me. They were offering a buy 3, get one free and cheap delivery too, so well worth checking out.
I have not used Castlehill Crafts, so cannot comment on them.

FWIW I just called Castle Hill to order some paper.

Great service and really good prices.
 
Just a heads up.

Ordered a roll of Silver Birch from Castle Hill and got it drop shipped to a client's premises for a shoot yesterday. Can't fault Castle Hill for their service - however couple of things about the Creativity paper I bought from them:

1. It doesn't seem as crease resistant as Colorama. I've used Colorama in studios plenty. Yesterday I moved the background slightly and put a big crease in it. I'm pretty sure I'd have got away with that with a Colorama. On the flipside it stood up pretty well to heels all day. Shot all day on it (carefully) and could probably have used same strip again today.

2. Colour looked NOTHING like the online patch. I'd strongly advise getting their colour chart if you're bothered what shade of grey you get.
 
This is supposed to be silver birch.

And yes, my white balance is OK thanks.
