Backdrop Photography
Does anyone know where I can find a photography backdrop support stand cheap in the Asheville NC area?
I need to purchase or rent a backdrop stand for a photo session like pronto!
If the shoot is to be at your house and you can screw 2 hooks, eye hooks, into the ceiling, do it this way...
2 eye hooks or eye screws of 1/4 inch dia metal. and a length of iron pipe. Screw the eye screws into the ceiling as far apart as your back drop material is wide and slide the iron pipe thru the eye bolts or just up and over the hooks, which ever you use, and there ya go. Instant backdrop support.
A cloths line approach would also work with a tight line between 2 solid ends.
Outside..? Ever set up a tent..? 2 up rights that are tied to stakes in the ground then 2 more left and right to keep the polls up right. Just like a pup tent.. The pipe is now supported by the up rights and your back drop hangs from the cross piece (the pipe).
If you have time, and this is still quicker than mail order.. 2 five gallon buckets, 2 long up rights and cement. The cement sets quick and you can uses them in a matter of hours. Some people even use old brake drums and weld the up rights to the old drums.
All ya gotta do is think what is needed and think out of the box, or catalog (or even the store).. The backdrop stand is just needed to hold the - backdrop. The picture won't see and won't care how you held the back drop up. American Ingenuity can and does work if one allows the mind a moment to fly alone...
