Photoshoot plan:

because I am going to be photographing landscapes I am not going to include people or their faces, however sometimes there might be some people within the landscape which are far away , these usually will be random strangers.

what may be photographed are cliffs, streams, rocks, trees and other natural forms within the landscape. what I will try to avoid are man-made objects or buildings as well as technology as these don’t fit in the whole romanticism aspect and are further away from nature.

where I plan to photograph are the inner as well up more open places, like the beach and coastal areas, and good places for that would be L’etacq , St. Ones beach, and the north coast areas like Bonne Nuit or Greve de Lecq. Places I will try to avoid are towns or heavy populated areas as these may be beautiful but are not of nature and sublime I want to photograph.

Since it is autumn the weather will be in constant change this is why even if I have a selected day, like on this weekend, I should not be dependant on weather as if I would want to capture images with a lot of sun and lightning in them, on the day it may be stormy and dark. This is why I should be prepared for any weather and may need to repeat or have another photoshoot in other places, preferably within a couple days later.

when taking pictures of the landscape that has a lot of open area, meaning there is a lot of sky visible and not so much landscape, or half and half, for example like the beach , where half is sand, a bit of water and then the rest is sky, I will try to photograph these when the clouds are in an interesting colour or shape, or will make sure I edit them to achieve this. with the camera I will aim for different photographs or the same landscape but from different angles. my biggest aim is to capture as much landscape possible within the frame and maybe some with different depth of field.

The main reason why I want to photograph those locations, and in a certain type of way is because I want to respond to romanticism and the sublime in landscape photography. Through the images I also want to capture Jersey’s beauty that makes the images have awe and terror, make a person that is looking at the image astonished and intrigued.
