Ella Bella Photography Backdrop Paper, Vintage Wood, 48" x 12', 1 Roll

I've never used a paper background before and I was a little hesitant. But I'm so glad I went for it! This is great and looks fantastic. I was able to roll it back up and I should be able to use it much more than once!!Edit: after using this a few times - I would buy it again - BUT, I would not recommend it for older children or adults. It worked great with babies, but with toddlers+ running on it and adults walking on it, I had to toss it out because it got wrinkled and tore. I still got about four uses of it - so great value. And had I known that going in, maybe I could have taped it better or something to help it not be as destroyed. I would buy another paper background from this company though and would consider replacing this (only reason I wouldn't is it I decide to spend more and get real wood). Great to play around with though!

This backdrop arrived in an oversized box, rolled - which kept it very secure. The backdrop is gorgeous. I used 3m poster double sided tape to hang it on my wall. It was a lot larger than I had anticipated, but that's ok. I actually had it fit the space I needed and cut it. It's a very thin paper, but honestly it is a good quality paper. I didn't have any issues installing, as I did it myself. It also cut very nicely. I folded the bottoms to give it some dimension. Good news is, I only used 1/2 my roll so if this one gets a rip or I need a refreshed one, I can use the remaining amount. When you photograph it, it looks truly like vintage wood. Gorgeous!

I was skeptical of how this backdrop would photograph due to its price and the fact that it is paper but i am beyond impressed! I am using it for baby photo shoots and it looks amazing! There are some things to be aware of 1.) It is paper so it can get damaged easily if not well taken care of (stated in the title so you cannot expect anything else). 2.) It is not super wide (measurements are also listed in description). It is perfect for the purpose i needed it, i would say it would not be a good idea for adults.

It is very beautiful and the image is printed very well, HOWEVER, I really didn’t comprehend the fact this is paper. Like, I saw it saw paper, and I don’t know if I thought it would be a different texture, but it’s basically half a step up from wrapping paper. There’s now easy way to roll it back up, so it ended up crumpled. I used it for the backgrounds of my website products (which worked great), but ended up throwing it away because it kept unrolling and got so crumpled and bent it’s unusable.

I agonized over this purchase- I simply didn't have a lot of money to shell out and I've long been anti backgrounds and pro organic photos, so I just didn't know what to expect. I read nearly all the reviews, and still was on the fence. However, at the end of the day, for the price I figured I really had nothing to lose and would find a way to use it no matter how it turned up.This item arrived at my home in a very large box much too large for the small wrapping paper sized roll inside. However, I don't think this is what caused the nasty crease down the middle several other reviewers have noted (which mind had.) Perhaps these were stacked and crushed at an Amazon wearhouse? It's a shame because, for larger images and portraits this isn't practical. It would never lay flat with the damage/crease, therefor, it wouldn't be as flawless a visual effect for close or sharp photographing.So, what should you expect? Well, probably a dented roll, sad to say. Outside of that, this is a very convenient roll to travel will as it is so lightweight. It has held up great with the clips on my backdrop rig with no tears or holes over the past month. I keep expecting a cat to go flying through it but so good so far. And, even then there's plenty of room to pull it down to a fresh point of view. Does it work for my needs? Yes. I've gotten several compliments on it and feel it is an excellent addition to any home or beginner photographer's arsenal.Hopefully my photos help anyone on the fence :)UPDATE: It's been over 6 months and I am still using the same roll. I have a cat int he house, so I've had to roll to 'fresher' background from time to time, but I still have some length left. It really holds up well if you take care of it. I also wanted to add several friends have invested in this after seeing it in my studio space, and they are just as happy with the buy.

I ordered the vintage wood print to take pictures of clothing to sell online. The roll came packaged in a very large box with lots of padding. I'm not sure how other reviewers received their product or why people have reported damage to the paper, but mine was in pristine condition. The print is good quality and from a medium and even close distance away gives the impression of real wood. I'm very impressed with the quality of this backdrop paper for the price and would definitely recommend for home photo shoots or if you're like me and need a simple backdrop for product images.I'm not exactly a professional photographer (lol) but I have attached a few photos of clothing I took using this backdrop paper. I'm very pleased with the results.

Excellent backdrop! I own a clothing boutique but do most of my business via my online shop. This makes for an excellent backdrop to my photos, so much more interesting than a white backdrop, and much easier to take great photos with without dealing with color temperatures, white balance, weird shadows and lighting. With my white backdrop and umbrella lights, I was still having to extremely edit my photos, with white balance, and lighting tools, and still wasn't getting a uniform look with every photo. I will note I am a very amateur photographer.With this backdrop (I just hung it on the wall with painter's tape) in combination with my four umbrella lights, my photos aren't muddy looking, and everything looks so much better and the clothing pops. My photos definitely look more professional, which is good because my shop is a higher end boutique. It's pretty much like heavy wrapping paper, but in photos, it looks very close to real wood. My friends thought I was standing in front of a wood wall. Definitely recommended.

Las fotos salen muy bien, no brilla al.tomar las fotos, lo que permite que se vea realista. Es Delgado, como.papel de envolver regalos, sirve para un solo uso, pero tiene buena calidad

Ovviamente per 5 euro nn si poteva chiedere di meglio. Per fotografarlo nn deve essere messo a fuoco ma sfocato, perché di suo nn è nitido e molto rumoroso. Serve solo per creare uno sfondo sfuocato o per altri usi come per esempio fare pacchi. Metto 2 stelle per il prezzo.

I really love it . It's a peaper perfect for babies smash cake . It's look like a real and the price is really cheap

Quedaron excelentes las fotos para lo que lo necesitaba, buen producto en relación con su precio

Such a great backdrop! So easy to put up and looks so good! Would highly recommend this to anyone
