Enjoy shallow
Depth-of-Field
wth any camera

InstaBackgrounds offer the pleasing look of shallow-depth-field that only a real lens can produce -- creamy bokeh on out-of-focus elements, and just the right amount of image grain and moving texture, that you’ll never be able to get with still photos or freeze frames.

Realistic Backgrounds

InstaBackgrounds look real, because they are real. Most of our backgrounds are shot in real locations with state-of-the art, super-35mm 4K cameras and high-end cinema lenses.
