Photoshoot Action Planning.

  • who you are photographing
  1. Sandwich shop workers
  2. receptionist
  3. hairdresser
  4. a child in the park
  • what/why you are photographing
  1. Sandwich shop worker: I want to reveal how important their job is, they provide people with food without the buyer having to make a mess making the food. They allow people to have something they can grab and go. I want to reveal their hardworking.
  2. Receptionist: receptionist are constantly busy and deal with different kinds of customers, rude, kind, ignorant etc. They are under appreciated and need more acknowledging. I want to appreciate and acknowledge their hard work.
  3. Hairdresser: hairdressers endure a lot. They have to be hairdressers, therapist and basically a best friend to their customers. As someone who has worked and still works in a hairdresser, watching my boss have to deal with so much is exhausting. They change life’s. They make people feel good in their won skin through the use of hair.
  4. A child in the park: I want to photograph a child in a park because it shows the true nature of a child. Seeing a child enjoy themselves in a park is kind of rare nowadays as lots of kids just want to stay home with their phones. I wanted to show what being a kid should truly be. Being a child means that you should enjoy the little things, not being aware of the bad in the world and having this innocent vision. I wanted to portray the true happiness of a child when they are in a park.
  • when you are conducting the shoot

I plan to take these environmental portraits all in one day to get it out of the way. I will do it in a day where it isn’t rainy but isn’t too sunny. The day must be dry not humid s it doesn’t make the photo look weird. I will do it in a Saturday because its a day where people are still working and I’m off school

  • where you are working/ location
  1. sandwich shop workers: I will take the picture in the sandwich shop with two workers.
  2. receptionist: the receptionist is also a hairdresser so will be taking the picture in a hairdresser where the reception is located.
  3. hairdresser: I will take the picture in a hairdresser where the photo of the receptionist will be taken.
  4. a child: the child will be taken photos of in a park.
  • how you are going to produce the images (lighting / equipment etc)
  1. camera
  2. natural lighting and artificial lighting from inside the buildings
  3. a whole park
  4. Ipad for the receptionist
  5. hairdryer
  6. sandwich bar
  7. adjusting aperture, shutter speed and ISO depending on how lit up the room is and basically changing all the above depending on the environment.
