drafting and planning - location

as the costume of my cover star will be mostly black, i have decided that the background on which the picture will be taken needs to be white, as then it will be easier to cut out my cover star and put them on a different background. If the cover star is dressed in black, then taking the pictures infront of a dark background would be a disadvantage as when cropping the artist, the costume and dark background will mix together and it will be difficult to distinguish between the clothes and the background. The pictures also need to be taken in a well lit place, so that the pictures don't come out too dark. If the pictures came out too dark then this would have a bad influence on the appearance of the costume in which my cover star is dressed, and you wouldn't be able to see clearly what they are wearing.
