The document summarizes various risks associated with a photo shoot, including risks from lighting such as eye damage or tripping from dazzling lights, risks of touching hot bulbs, risks of uneven terrain or falling in a river during an outdoor shoot by a river, and risks of tripping over wires. It provides recommendations to prevent these risks, such as using natural lighting, securing wires, and being careful of footing during an outdoor shoot.

1. Risk Assessment
Claire Nugent

2. Lighting
• The light may dazzle the models creating a risk of damage to
their eyesight.
• There is also the possibility that short term dazzling could
cause a person to lose balance and trip.
• In order to prevent this from happening I must ensure that
the area is stable so it is not as easy to trip; lights should not
be directly pointed towards their face at an angle that could
dazzle them.
• Another way to prevent this would be to use natural or low
level lighting.
• The light may become hot to the touch and burn someone.
• To prevent this everyone should be careful not to touch the
bulb until it is cool again.

3. Setting
• The photo shoot may take place outside by a
river, this poses a potential threat to safety of all
people involved as they could fall on uneven
terrain and hurt themselves. They could also fall
in the river.
• All people involved should be careful of where
they are stepping. All people involved should be
able to swim in case they do fall in.

4. Wires
• Any wires pose a potential trip hazard.
• All wires should be out of the way and/or those
in the way should be taped to the floor/secured
to the floor.
