Cheap Indoor Studio

I love to take outdoor photos. I also love taking macro shots indoors of still life. My living quarters is already quite cramped as it is. Therefore, I have no room left to set up a professional studio. Renting space in an office building is out of the question. So, it came to thought if I just wanted something small and compact to snap pics of the little things of life, why not just use a simple piece of black or white fabric as a photo backdrop tacked to a wall. It's as simple as that.
All one has to do is purchase some cheap fabric at Walmart or any other store that sells fabric. It would be good to have both black and white material for use as your backdrop. A few thumbtacks or tape and good lighting and you're set to go. It only takes a few moments to set up a little studio and take it down when not in use. This easy to do studio can also be adjusted to size as needed according to the amount of material needed to serve as the backdrop.
One will never be able to tell the difference if the pictures were taken in a professional studio or at home in your own kitchen or livingroom. It is the most economical way to get those macro shots or any type of shot that requires a simple backdrop. Cheap and easy!
