Meet Tara Eveland, she owns and operates a studio in Southern Illinois that specializes in Women &
Children portraiture; Tara Eveland Photography. She's worked in the
photography industry for 11 years now, but always in other peoples studios, for
newspapers, or managing corporate studios such as Sears and Walmart. She was
blessed in 2010 to be able to open Tara Eveland Photography and finally have her own name accompany her work. Since the first shoot she has only used backdrops
from backdropoutlet.com.
Why?
"Because they are amazing. The selection is wonderful,
there is something there for anyone and everyone. The drops and floors, even
the props are very budget friendly and the quality is unbeatable. I also want
to state that the exceptional customer service is what has kept me coming back
time and time again. I am a sample shooter and through the program I did get to
try various products and figure out which ones I loved the most.
The first
illustration here is a photo of one of the newer products offered, the matted
back candy floor drop. This is so versatile and can actually be clipped up to
make a background/floor for a little one, or used as just a floor. Here are
some photos using it both ways. The first is a photo of my own son and the
floor is lightweight enough to be clamped as you can see, and used as the drop
as well as the floor! The second photo you see is using the floor along with a Titanium Cloth to create a gorgeous image of my daughter modeling a dress for a
boutique. I am also showing here the very simple setup that I used. You can see
the reflector and the one light. I did not edit this photo other than a size
adjustment so that you may see the vivid colors of these drops that are cleaned
on a regular basis and still maintain their great colors!" - Tara Eveland
Also available as a non-slip floor -

"My other favorite product are
the Titanium Cloth. I love these drops because they fold, not roll like vinyl
and therefore are wrinkle free! You can just throw them in the washer and not
have to worry about the color fading out of them either. I own almost
exclusively Titanium Cloth. Here are a few examples of my favorites. The first
I use a lot in my boudoir session, this headboard is so realistic looking and
just lovely. Clients often come in and say "so where is the headboard from
that last shoot, I want to use that" and then they are shocked to find out
it is really a background! The second Titanium Cloth I am featuring is so
versatile and is dear to my heart because I love all things Chevron! Isn't this
just adorable! (this shot was inspired by moms cravings of lucky charms when
she was pregnant!)" - Tara Eveland
