achieving whitish backgrounds?

Nice effect, how can this be achieved anyway? All this whitish atmosphere, its not just a white paper background is it?

buy a white poster board

put your products on the front half of it

prop up the other half of the poster board as a background (don't fold the poster board, curve it)

Posterboard or canvas will work. The harder part is lighting, but it's not too difficult to make one.
