How do I pick between having studio and location portraits?
Both types have distinct advantages and disadvantages. Studio session allow the photographer complete control the weather, lighting and you get a choice of backdrops and sets. Since lighting plays a huge part in photography, (it is used to set the mood and style of the portrait) studio portraits can be anywhere from soft to edgy. Location sessions are great for large groups, (since the space if virtually unlimited), if you want to use a substantial prop, (such as a motorcycle or car). Most visitors want to make them jealous back home and what better way than a portrait of a romantic stroll at sunset on the beach. So consider what kind of portrait you want before choosing.
