Location scouting is a very important part of any commercial or advertising photography project. I recently shot a series of photos for a manufacturer of stainless steel tanker trailers. Our goal for a location was to find interesting roads with limited traffic near their production facility in western Wisconsin. This would allow us to be efficient, productive and creative in our window of opportunity with early morning and late day light. I’ve spent many frustrating hours driving around trying to find visually interesting roads, but on this shoot we got lucky. Within a few miles from the manufacturing plant, we found a number of scenic roads that offered several different looks for the shots.
