Thought I had it down, but apparently 5.6 was too deep, or I just didn't get close enough with the 50mm or she she wasn't far enough from the backdrop.

Oh well--I'm thinking a masked blur in Photoshop? Or is clone better?

Could use a background light to blow out the background.

You could clone out the wrinkles....with a bit of patience, you can have a wrinkle free BG.
