I have chosen my photo shoot to take place in West Sunniside, Sunderland. This may have potential hazards as i am planning on taking the photos at night, when it is dark. This is due to the fact the fountains and lights are usually on at night. The water may make it a bit slippery so i will have to make sure that the model/s and i are careful around the fountains. Also, as it will be dark, there is the potential hazard of tripping over something. I will have to make sure that, when not doing to actual photo shoot, the area is well lit (probably by using a flashlight).
Will the time of day/weather affect the outcome of the photos? Have you allowed for this?The time of day will have to be night as that is when the lights generally get switched on and if they are not switched on then the image will not look as good as i hope. If, for some reason, the lights don't get switched on then i will have to choose a different area for my photo shoot. The weather will likely be cold and cloudy as it is on a night which is fine. If it rains or snows then that will present an issue when taking the photos. If that happens then teh photo shoot will either move to a different place or day.
Have you considered the background to your photos, particularly if taken outside? How will you ensure you will get the background you want?
I have a few ideas on backgrounds to my photos. The one i really want to use is the fountains at West Sunniside. However if i cant use that for some reason then i will have to either use a field or park, probably Dalton Le Dale as that has both a grassy area and a park area. If there are people in the places i want to take the photo shoot at the time then i would ask them politely if i could quickly take some photos in that area or i would wait for a bit until they leave.
Do you need permission to take photos in the place/venue you have in mind?
As both places are available to the public, i will not need permission to take the photos there.
Do you need to book time in a room (eg the photography studio at Shiney)?
I wont need to book any time anywhere as both my locations are outside and available to use at any time.
Are other people/crowds likely to be an issue for you? What have you done to ensure that it will not spoil the effect?
I will go to the place to take the photo shoot at a time when there wont be many people around so it will not be an issue to me.
Are you reliant on lifts/props/friends’ equipment/models? How have you planned that these things will come together at the appointed time? Plan B?
I can get to any of the locations at any time i need to so that wont be an issue. The props would be easy to gather, if i will be using any. I am hoping that the models will be available at the time i need them however if they are not then i can easily persuade some of my family members to stand in for them instead. I have already forewarned the people in question that they may be needed to model for me to take a photo shoot.
