Photo-Shoot action plan Environmental Portrait

Who?

For this photo shoot, I am wanting to photograph people in there working environments or in their natural setting like a home. I am planning to get some photos of my family members in my house as this is their natural setting and where they spend the most time. The people who I take photos of who are in their work environment will be taken as random. I will ask these people permission to do this. I also have an advantage in working in a work place myself so I will be able to capture photos of my work colleagues. as well as this, I have friends who work who will be happy for me to take a photo of them.

Where?

The places I am focussing on taking my photos in are my house and the stores in the market. I think the market is a good place to target as it’ll give me a range of retail businesses and a lot of the workers are proud of their profession so would be willing to be apart of a photo to show off their workplace. The places I will also go which are not the market will be my friends workplaces such as the bakery, the garden centre and De Gruchy. Taking photos in my house will also be a very obvious place as it is a natural setting for all of my family members.

Why

I am doing this to show the various different professions people have and be able to capture it in a photograph

How

I am most likely going to be taking these photo so my phone as it is more easier to carry around to various places. However, i also have a camera I am borrowing so I will still be able to get some photos using this. this is good because it will capture better quality photos and will also show the subject I am photographing that i am being genuine by saying it is for my photography work

What do I want the person I am photographing to do?

It would be ideal if my subject would be able to look at the camera when I am photographing them as this is what environmental portraits involves. however, I can understand if they do not want to do that as it is their decision.
