ABSTRACT
A good location is invaluable to portrait photography. It can add a style and resonance to an image that makes it far more engaging and interesting than anything shot in the studio. Where reader can shoot and what Kinds of locations to look for are dealt with in this section, along with the practical problems that come from being outside. The issues of bright sunlight, candid photography, security and applicable laws are all dealt with. Rural areas and the countryside are best used in the summer when there are fields full of golden crops and the warm light of a summer's day makes everything seem pleasant. The traditional image of flowing water, from a landscape photographer's perspective, is one that uses a long exposure of over four seconds to blur the water.
