WHY IS THIS LOCATION SUITABLE FOR YOUR PROJECT?
This was suitable for my project as the time of release for my billboards was in a colder season, so I
picked an outdoors theme surrounded by nature to ensure it all made sense to the target audience.

ACCESS
TRANSPORT LINKS TO LOCATION
From my home address I travelled to my
models address by car. This was a 20minute
journey. I only had to make this journey once
as all locations were very close and close the
models home.

PHYSICAL ACCESS TO SITE

From my models house it took roughly a 3 minute
walk to each location. All locations for the photo
shoot were in very close proximity to each other.
From each photo shoot location to get to the next
photo shoot it took roughly about a minute or two
for each individual location.

acoustic value of the location)

The location of the woodland area the area is a pretty location due to the orange and brown leaves
giving it a autumn/winter effect. The colours are vibrant and compliment my model and her clothes.
I will be taking full length landscape shots so I am able to see all of her clothing.
Dark fenced location This location is a good setting as it is a dark place and it allows the model
and her clothes to stand out and be the main focus of the image.
Pavement with green gates this location is a good place to be photographed as the green gates
and pavement add to the outdoors theme, making the model and her clothing stand out as theyre
dark colours in the background.
