Tips & Tricks - Avoid footprints on the background
When taking full-frame photos where the subject is standing on the paper, cut a piece of the paper from the roll so that it is over the front area where they will be standing. Be sure to tape it down so that the motif does not slide. The joint will not be noticeable if you use backlighting to brighten the white. This helps to avoid shoe marks on the white paper. When that piece gets dirty, you can flip it over or cut another small piece. A more permanent solution is to use a large matt Plexiglas panel. If you can, take full-figures separately from face portraits and half-figures and wait to drag the background down to the floor until you need it for full-figure so you don't waste paper or get more footprint than you want.
