Beauty and the Beast

Steve & Shelley Harrington--Steve Harrington Photography

"When we saw the new Beauty and the Beast set we just knew it was an investment that would set us apart from our competition. We photograph a lot of senior portraits and the kids really enjoy having a look that is unique. The seniors want a session and images, they can’t wait to show off to their friends, and in turn this books us more sessions. We want to be the buzz…it really means more than you know to the kids.

The set has an unbelievable look to it and photographs so real it’s amazing. On numerous occasions we have had clients come into the studio, see a studio sample print, which was shot on the set, and ask where in town we created that image! When we explain it was done right in the studio on a set, they are blown away. That speaks volumes about who we are as a studio and quickly sets us apart from the wanna-be photographers and soccer moms with digital cameras.

The set is very versatile! The looks and combinations are virtually endless. The Beauty side is great for bridals and formals and it has a real timeless look to it. The Beast side brings a very cool and edgy feel and is great for guys and all seniors who want to show some attitude.

Back to Back Design Works is definitely one of a kind and their sets are definitely an investment into who you are in your community!"

"I want to say a BIG THANK YOU !!!!!!
for my beautiful props . I was so Excited when Larry called me to let me know that he was OPEN For Business. A couple of weeks later we ordered 2 sets from him. We had known Larry from Off The Wall. I just about fell over  when he said he was on the East Coast !! That makes shipping Great for us. I can't wait to call you all again and to place another order. My hardest part will be deciding on which set I will get. I would Love to have them all !!!
We Love You All at Back2Back and Thanks Again."

Larry Hersberger....Lead Designer, Artist and Photographer 

"This set is one of my favorite designs. I was inspired by the look and feel of Norman Rockwell art and the look of Little Rascals. I also wanted a storybook/fairytale quality to the set.

When I was photographing the set I found it just as easy to photograph the boys as I did the girls. They simply seemed to take ownership of the surroundings and do everything I asked of them. It was their own wonderland in their minds. Each session was pure fun."
 
"My goal when creating the set and end image was to tell a story. I wanted the photograph to be like a painting with a mother's child in it. I was very pleased with the results on both sides of the LITTLE WONDER.....so were the mothers. If you photograph kids, I feel your images should make mothers go "AWWE". If you hear this when you show your images to the mother, then you have captured her heart and emotion. This set and the end images did just that....it will for you too.."

Rustic Railroad Tracks
Larry Hersberger...Photographer.and Designer of Rustic Railroad Tracks

"I love how diverse this set is.  When I designed the set, I kept all sizes of groups and types of sessions in mind. No matter what type of subject I photographed, the Rustic Railroad Tracks preformed flawlessly. It was designed to photograph from one person to 20 people. It also takes care of boys and girls of all ages, senior students, bridal, families, pets and so many other portraits. I cannot wait to photograph Rustic Railroad Tracks in the studio as well."

Radiance
Keepsakes Studio
 
"We were thrilled to see Back 2 Back open for business. Having built our business model around having the best studio sets available we found ourselves being the photographic leader in our area. After purchasing many sets off the leading set manufacture in the industry our business was thriving. After the unfortunate demise of Off The Wall we found ourselves in need of another set manufacturer. We purchased a few sets from other "copy cat" companies that we soon realized that they were not built to the same standards that we were used to. As word spread that Back 2 Back was to open we quickly contacted the company to inquire. We are proud to say that our business will continue the quest to deliver awesome portraits, as Back 2  Back has provided us with better quality sets that we have seen from any other. We will continue to do business with Back 2 Back for their quality sets hold up to the extreme traffic that we expose them to."
 
"The double sided sets give great versatility. Adding and changing pieces increases the possibilities of how the set can change appearance and be used in many ways that does not resemble the original set."
 

              


Cindy Kaye Mills - Studio C. Kaye Photography - London, Kentucky

"I would just like to say "Thank You". I received my new Radiance set and I love it. Viewing the set on the website is helpful, but it does not do it justice, unless you see how beautiful it really is. I've got so many new ideas because the set is just so versatile. Seniors are going to love it! This set has so many possibilities. Mothers are going to love it for children and babies, brides are going to love it to help capture one of the most important times in their lives. I have waited for two years to purchase one of your sets and when I heard that Larry had moved to the East Coast and was working with Back to Back Design Works I immediately began planning on how I was going to get one of the new sets. So, thank you Larry for all of your personal attention helping me make a very important decision that will take my studio to a whole new level. You all are great!!!

Thank You."

 


Rex Truell, F. Ph

"This set is amazing!  Not only do I love it, my clients loved all of the different looks and couldn't believe that this one set had so many options.  Families, children, brides.... I even used this set for prom.  The students had never been more excited about having prom pictures made!"  

              


Larry Hersberger - Designer and Photographer of Radiance set.

"This may be my favorite of my designs. I say this mostly because it is the style I personally like to photograph on. It is elegant and timeless. Both looks, from side a to b, will never go out of style, but there also are other reason I love this set so much.

 1. I can photograph weddings, seniors, children, portraits, families, pets....just about any subject will look awesome on this set.
 
2. It gives my images the feeling of a painting. It will do this for your images as well. This means the sale of more wall portraits to your customers.
 
3. It gives a powerful presence in the studio.
When I bring a person to the studio and have this set in place, it really takes their breath away. They are not ready to see something so beautiful. This impact helps with word of mouth advertising for your studio. Your customers will talk about the experience at your studio. It also makes the customer know they are about to create a wall portrait with you. The Radiance set is that impressive.
 
4. It really takes a small area and gives it the illusion of size and elegance.
 
5. It is a very modular set.
 
6. It works very well both indoors and outdoors. The look fits for both styles of lighting and photography.
 
All and all it is just a very good value and will be a work horse for your studio for many many years to come.

The Zone

Kathy Sanford - KATS EYE PHOTOGRAPHY

I must tell you I was so disappointed with “Off the Wall Productions”.  I lost a lot of trust in you and your company. Then when I found the new company I really let you know how hurt I was in losing not only my trust but my money and products.

 Then after a few months of going back and forth with you in understanding everything that happened I knew I just had to trust you again.  I’m glad you didn’t let me down!

 When you asked me what I wanted in a set and then designed it I was absolutely blown away with the drawings.  And when I received the set in, I just started screaming – I absolutely think this is one of the best sets I could have ever received!  It totally took us by surprise!  I remember calling you and just actually screaming with excitement at how taken back I was with this set.  It did more than meet my expectations, you went overboard and I’m so glad you did!  

 My seniors love it!  The young children and family’s love it!  They all tell me how they’ve never seen anything like this!  The colors are perfect and the design is awesome!

The set works great with everything.  I can’t think of anyone I can’t use with this prop.  It really, really has made up for everything I went thru with Off the Wall.

 You totally have me back as a customer.  I can’t wait for the grand opening so I can finally meet you.  Thank you again for all your help and making amends to the loss I had with Off the Wall and I look forward to a long, long relationship with Back to Back Design Works!

 Ron Compton - Creative Image.

"I love my Back-to-Back set.  It is realistic, flexible and loads of fun.  My subjects love it, too because they can relate to various parts of it.  They tell me how much fun they have relating to it with it's various looks."

Ron Smith - RON SMITH PHOTOGRAPHY
 

Welcome back!!! 
 
As an owner of 3 different Off the Wall sets,I was thrilled to see you were back in business with Back 2 Back Design Works filling the void in the studio set industry.
 
I received my Zone set on Monday and couldn't wait to start shooting.  It is even better than you told me on the phone.  While I felt OTWP was top notch, the quality of my b2bdw Zone set feels better.  The product is a bit heavier, which is not a problem, and the material used feels more dense and therefore durable.
 
What I like best of all is the realism and versatility.  The three walls (six distinct sides) provide me with looks that I had hoped for in years past.  In fact, last year I almost bought a 4x8 piece of corrugated steel just to use as a backdrop.  No need for that now. 
 
Finally, the packing and shipping of the set receives 5 stars.  No cheap cardboard here.  Everything arrived in perfect condition.
 
I believe in you, your work ethic and your product.

Dream Weaver
Kristen Phillips
Phillips Photography Studio

"Our customers loved the new set and the sleigh was a huge hit. It was just awesome. Use this as a testimonial for sure."

 

Christie Layne
Picture Perfect, Portraits by Christie

"Thought I'd send you a couple of pictures with the new set. I was only able to use the dock for a few days before I had to start Christmas but I think it will work nicely. The chimney completes the look of the sleigh scene and gives a different look than I had with just the sleigh in previous years.  My favorite part is definitely the gingerbread house. I have had more than a few customers look at it and talk about how extremely talented you are to come up with the ideas that you do. I can't wait to see what you come up with next. I hope business is growing good for you and I hope your holidays are wonderful. 

Thanks Again for the great set."

Garden Elegance
Lisa Jane Murphey--Eden Studios, Houston TX
 
"I just wanted you to know how much we love our new Garden Elegance.  I was delighted to see that the look and quality is better than ever.  It's so easy to set up and durable enough to stay outside year round.  The way you can switch the gates from tall to short in an instant makes it perfect for all subjects from brides to princesses to seniors and families!  And the fact that the wrought iron is double sided makes it even more versatile.
 
The set paid for itself with the first princess session we did with it, and we even had enough left over to pay for all our costumes! 
 
Your sets are so inspirational and help bring a photographer's work to a whole new level while remaining easy to work with!
 
Many Thanks and keep up the good work,
 
Lisa Jane

Good Times

Angela Deville--Captured Moments
 

"I just wanted to tell you how much I love the new Good Times set you put together for me. It is everything that I had envisioned and more.  Seeing this set come to life is just so exciting and I am so glad that I got to be a part of creating it! 

 You put so much thought into making this set as versatile as possible - there are just so many possibilities with this one.  I realize that we had a tight deadline to work with and I appreciate everything that you put into making this happen. "

 
         



John Dingo - Dingo Photography & Imaging

"Dingo Photography & Imaging would like to thank Larry at Back to Back for his incredible designed sets. We have been Larry's client for over 4 years. All of the sets that we own, including the new designs, have brought attention to our studio. As soon as our clients walk into the camera room they go WOW... I want that! The attention to detail, realism, rich unique designs and the service that we have always received from Larry is top notch. Our studio has looked at many other designs from other manufacturers but none can match the 'look' that Back To Back can deliver."

Magical Forest

Rex C. Truell, F.Ph.

"Back to Back out did themselves with this little magical wonderland!  The quality is superb and the product couldn't be more realistic.  I overheard one little girl say "Look, Mommy, I get to be a real princess and sit on a real
mushroom!".
 

              

 


Larry Hersberger - Designer and Photographer of Magical Forest Set

Can you believe all of these images were photographed right in the customer's back yard?  The mother was amazed and loved the images of her little girl.
