LOCATION PORTFOLIO

Choosing A Location 101

Picture
WHO?  HOW? WHEN? WHY?
​
A FEW FACTORS TO CONSIDER WHEN CHOOSING A GOOD LOCATION.
​
WHO WILL BE PHOTOGRAPHED?
 
Grandparents need an easy walk...

HOW WILL THE SUBJECT GET THERE?
WALKING, WHEELCHAIR?

WHEN WILL THE SESSION TAKE PLACE? DURING WHAT  SEASON? WILL IT BE COLD OR HOT?
 
WHY ARE WE CHOOSING THIS LOCATION?  DOES IT GIVE THE FEELING YOU ARE LOOKING FOR FROM THE SESSION OVERALL.
