At the suggestion of Nina Mozer,[5] Tarasova teamed up with Vladimir Morozov in spring 2012. The pair's main coach was Stanislav Morozov.[2] Vladimir Morozov broke his foot one week into the new partnership and was out for three months.[2] The pair made their debut at a Junior Grand Prix event in Croatia where they finished 5th. They withdrew from their next assignment in Germany. Tarasova/Morozov won their first senior international title at the 2012 Warsaw Cup. At the Russian Championships, they placed fifth on the senior level and then won the silver medal on the junior level. The pair finished fifth at the 2013 Junior World Championships.
In 2013–14, Tarasova/Morozov won silver in Latvia and bronze in Estonia on the JGP series. They qualified for the JGP Final in Fukuoka, Japan, where they finished fourth in both segments and overall. The pair won the silver medal at the 2013 Winter Universiade behind teammates Ksenia Stolbova / Fedor Klimov.

He fell on both of their jumping passes and she was hurt when a lift collapsed near the end of their free program but was able to resume and complete the final element, a pair spin.[6] Tarasova was taken to the hospital and found to have no serious injury.[7] After winning the national junior title a month later, the pair was assigned to the 2014 World Junior Championships in Sofia, Bulgaria.
