107″ Wide At nine feet, the 107″ seamless paper is twice as wide as the shorter 53″ version, making for an impressively wide backdrop. Of course you’ll need a certain distance (perhaps 6’-20’) in front of the backdrop to work with these focal lengths, so before buying make sure you have enough space in your studio or shooting area. These focal lengths also work well for the 53” seamless paper as they avoid showing the sides of the roll as you zoom in. It’s compact, easy to transport and easy to set up.įor portraits, you’ll likely be using a fairly tight lens (in the range of about 50mm-200mm for a full-frame camera) to avoid perspective distortion. You can use this length for capturing kids, infants, small pets, and small products. 53″ Wide The 53” wide seamless paper rolls are perfect for head shots,3/4 body shots or for 2 people who are intimate such as in wedding or engagement photos. Just remember that the size of your studio and the loading space of your car or truck will help determine which size paper roll will work best.

More on that in a bit! Here is a description of the shooting capabilities each of the various lengths will give you. What is your typical photo shoot? Do you tend to capture head shots, or do you often photograph families – or both? Do you make a habit of shooting small products or large products? How big is your studio?Can it handle a 9-foot-wide backdrop roll? Or do you shoot in a spare bedroom where space is limited? Answering these questions will help guide your selection, but the good news is that you don’t need to constrain yourself to just the factory-made lengths of paper. Which Size Do I Need? Choosing the appropriate seamless paper size will take some assessment on your part. Fortunately, Savage Seamless Paper Backdrops make it possible to perfectly fit your backdrop to both your subject matter and shooting style, whether for a product shoot, ahead shot, or groups of people.

Obviously that’s a wide range of sizes and shapes! Configuring a backdrop system that can accommodate such a list of subjects might seem daunting. You may be asked to make a portrait of a single person, a family of four, or a pet.

How do I choose the right seamless paper size? Being prepared for all the different photo shoots that may come your way can be a challenge.
