YOU. Because you have the freedom of choice for where you would like your photoshoot to take place, it is your responsibility to cover the additional fees that may come with a specific location. If you prefer to avoid obtaining a permit, there may be some ways to work around it. This doesn't mean doing anything illegal! Instead, there may be a time of day when a permit is not required. As well, there might be a similar location nearby that does not require the permit. That means you can save money on the photoshoot so that you can use it for other more valuable things such as extra prints or images. Overall, my goal is to help you get the best possible options to keep you within your budget.
