I am enrolled in community college, majoring in photography. I currently do head shots but I want to do vintage(ish) portraits of families of say 4-5 people. I have a studio set up with a vintage sofa like the one in the following image, and I have a 10x10 damask backdrop. How do I get it all in the photograph? I am working with a 50mm 1.8 lens.
