I'm going to have to take the photos WHERE?

I was asked to photograph the contestants for a local preliminary to the Miss Hawaii Scholarship pageant. Since they were meeting at a local car dealership, would it be possible to take the photos in the area? They wanted an outdoor shot and are there any locations close by to take the photo? I drove by the area earlier during the week and decided to wait until I got there on the photo day to make a final determination based on light and weather.

The weather was pretty good when I got there with minimal breezes. This is the location that I selected based on what I knew was going to happen to the background with the equipment I was using.



This is the view from where the subjects are standing. Yes, it's a car dealership.




This is the end product. Sure doesn't look like a car dealership.
