I love using fabric for photo backdrops because fabric doesn’t shine or create a glare against natural or artificial lighting, but fabric can show wrinkles or distort its shape when it’s not on a flat background (such as my bed, or my table with stacks of books on it) and all of that can be pretty distracting.
