Photography Question

Basic Background Question


I have seen cool portraits of people with the background a smooth gradient of color, like light blue at the top deepening into deep blue at the bottom. How do they do that!
Thanks for answering my question!!!

  Most likely a deep blue background that's lit to gradually over expose slightly to a lighter blue.

Or you can use a picture editing program to change the background. If you need more info and have Photoshop Elements 2 let me know I'll describe the steps...
