Which is better for family photos after a baptism?
Either works. A photo wall is lighter and costs less. A backdrop looks more solid and can move to the stage afterwards.
Which is better behind the pulpit or the band?
A backdrop. The stretched print stays flat and the tube frame is steadier on a stage.
