How to Get a White Background I am just starting out and I would like to know how to get the shots with all-white backgrounds (like Tim McGraw's video "Live like you were dying"?). Please give me some tips.

I don't know what this video looks like, but if it's all white, it's probably white seamless paper or white muslin.

I'm not familiar with the video either, but in addition to getting either a white muslin or seamless paper background, you're also going to need to light it. In order to get the background to look white in your pictures, you need to get more light on your background than you have on your subject.

In most cases in photography, you want to show some detail. Facial detail is usually utmost for portrait work. It's rare to find an overexposed portrait that works, unless done in black and white. Have fun and keep shooting,
