2.
Are there any potential hazards that could pose a health and safety risk where your
photo shoot will take place? And how will you minimise these risks?
 I feel as though there will not be any hazards at my
photo shoot as I want it up against a blank
background which isn’t an elaborate background so I
will not have to venture out far. Since it will be
indoors there's is no risks such as traffic or other
people like thugs as it will be in a controlled
environment such as a studio. I will minimise the
risks by ensuring that the setup is safe and secure
before going though with the shoot just to know that
half way through I won’t encounter an issue.

3.
Will the time of day/weather affect the outcome of the photos? Have you allowed for this?
 The time of day/weather will not effect the outcome
of my photos as it will be indoors so that eliminates
the weather danger and I will be using artificial
lighting so even if it does take place at night then it
wont be a big deal as the light illuminating the model
will be from other sources than outside lighting.

4.
Have you considered the background to your photos, particularly if taken outside?
How will you ensure you will get the background you want?
 As I have previously stated I want my images with a
blank background and there is a lot of places where I
can get this so if a location is not available at one
time I have lots of backups that I could use.

5.
Have you considered lighting? What about the ‘problems’ of natural lighting, either outside,
or streaming through a window? Will you need to use a flash? Have you considered reflective
objects that might spoil the effect?
 As I previously stated I am going to use artificial
lighting so I will be using a flash. I will choose a place
that does not have windows where the sun can
stream through it and cause streaks of light. I will
ensure the location does not have reflective surfaces
and the model is not wearing anything that could
reflect the light unless I want light to be reflected but
it is highly doubtful I want that to happen.

6.
Do you need permission to take photos in the place/venue you have in mind?
 I will not need to get permission to take the photos in
the place I want to take my images because if I am
not able to get a photo studio then I can just get it up
against a white wall and edit a colour in using
Photoshop and seen as though white walls are all
over I will not need permission to shoot at one.

7.
Do you need to book time in a room?
 I will need time to book a room such as a studio in
the new building at Bede college. But if I am not
successful in getting the room in time then it isn’t a
big deal for reasons I have previously outlined.

8.
Are other people/crowds likely to be an issue for you? What have you done to
ensure that it will not spoil the effect?
 Other people and crowds will not be a likely issue for
my me as I want to take my images up against a
white background so no one will be behind it. To
ensure that if the chance of crowds or other people
do come into play than I will move location or see if
they people can be avoided and just take my images
there. As I have said I don't see this being a problem.

9.
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 am not reliant on props or lifts or friends
equipment the only thing that I am reliant is a
camera from college but these are easy to acquire so I
am not worried about not having them at the time I
need them. If by chance I do end up not having the
equipment when I need them then I will have to
rearrange as soon as possible.
