Having never attempted outdoor photos, I don't really know... but my assumptions:
Pros for outdoor:
- Premade sets!
- Obviously more natural settings.
- Interesting built-in light and shadow effects.
- Huge variety of backdrops to choose from.
Cons for outdoor:
- Inclement weather.
- Inconsistent lighting.
- Curious neighbors.
- Abundant scale problems.
Pros for indoor:
- Highly controlled setting.
- Easier to apply lighting and other environmental effects.
- No chance of rain delay.
Cons for indoor:
- Much more effort involved in set creation.
- Fewer potential angles.
- Different but still considerable scale problems.
Personally, I find indoor shooting on custom sets more desirable... but again, my experience is lacking. Part of it is that I just don't have a good place to shoot outdoors, though I do like the idea of building my own detailed environments over trying to find good ones outdoors.
