Pretty much any time;  I'm retired.  I'd suggest during the day, for 
best amount of light, evenly distributed.  I have skylights.

It's probably easier for you to bring the board here, rather than me 
truck the tripod and camera/lens over there, unless you are allergic to 
cats.

Bring sufficient memory.  My upload speed to OneDrive is probably around 
0.5MB/sec.
