I run a very small, low budget photography business. I do on location photo sessions for a reasonable fee. I've had several people ask if I could do photos with a black or white background (like would be done in studio), but of course I don't have a studio. I do only on location photos. My step father made me a backdrop stand out of pvc pipe (per the instructions found online). It was nice in theory, but I'm using this thing outside and it won't stand on its own. I have to lean it against a wall and still it won't stand up straight. I would like to be able to take it to the park (or wherever I'm doing photos) and use my backdrop (without leaning it against something). Any suggestions on getting mine to stand up? Or suggestions on a stand to buy that is heavy duty enought to withstand some wind?
