What is the best color to paint a photography studio?

In the shooting locations, use multiple colors. This will allow for multiple shooting locations. Like in one section hang some corregated aluminum. Another section paint an off-white. Another section use pastels. This will save money for backgrounds in the future. At the studio I worked at, we had pallettes with backgrounds painted on them that swung open and closed from a central point. This allowed us to have like 5 backgrounds in one spot.

For reception spots, any soft color will work. Calm blues, off-whites, cremes, etc are nice as they help the client feel relaxed and willing to talk and be more open. It encourages a relationship between you and the client.

Besides, if you are a good photographer, color casts, light absorbtion, is nothing to worry about. Amateurs worry about those issues... well, amateurs and people who haven't a clue about lighting and photography in general. If you know how to white balance your camera, this isn't an issue at all. Plus, studio lights when used properly will negate those issues also. Source(s): 10+ Years Professional Photographer

An eggshell white, satin, that way when you use flash you wouldn't have a slight color caste from the walls. It is especially handy if you want to do existing light photography without a flash, using window light. You would get maximum light reflection off the walls to have either a faster shutter speed or a higher f-stop.
studio walls should be black. black absorbs light. that way when you use flash or other high intensity lights you don't get any 'bounce' or reflectance that could affect your photo. any color you use should be in your back drop which is changeable.
I'd go with white and maybe one wall black.....
Simple black.
If you don't have a powerfull lighting system, you shoul paint the walls white. Reflection of the light in the walls will help just a little.

When I use a red background, my subjects have a red influence. (no white balance will correct this). To avoid any reflection, you should have BLACK courtains.

Light travels 300,000 km / second, so light reflection on the walls really matters!
