The worldwide leader in paper backgrounds and photographic products since 1937; Savage helps visual artists and designers to craft their images with consistency and cohesive style.
From our beginning in 1937 as a manufacturer of quality board and paper products, Savage has provided photographers the essential elements for success. Family-run from the start, we have a commitment to quality and innovation that defined who we were in the beginning and still defines who we are today.
Products such as photographic backgrounds continue to be a key focus of our manufacturing efforts, but there’s much more to the Savage story. We’re continuing to develop innovative products, especially in the studio equipment & lighting arenas, to meet the needs of today’s more diverse photography community—professionals and semiprofessionals alike.

Photographers rely on Savage studio equipment for its dependability and value. We offer an extensive line of studio and location equipment, including patented design light stands, light modifiers from small to large, and essential accessories like gaffer tape and clamps. Background stands run from portable and lightweight to multi-support bar systems for heavy and wide backdrops.
