Shoot Prep Guide

Day before:

SET THE SCENE

Get ready the day before the shoot. Whether a stadium, retail space, or residential property, the aim remains the same: clear clutter, generally organize things, and prep the space. Ensure things are mostly good to go, so there is little to sweat the day of the shoot.

15-30 min before:

DIAL IN THE DETAILS

A bit before the photographer arrives, dial in any final details. Turn on lights, straighten things up, and double-check everything is set as you want it captured. Do a final check that any distractions (boxes, cords, vehicles, clutter etc.) are tucked away as much as practical.

Go time:

THE SHOOT

When the photographer arrives, give them a quick walkthrough. Share any priorities, thoughts, or things to avoid or highlight. We'll take it from here, and showcase your space, product, or brand in the best possible light.

THAT'S A WRAP

Thanks for your help! We'll get the media, uploaded, edited, and delivered as quickly as possible.

Note: these are general guidelines intended to help. We do all sorts of shoots! No sweat if shoot prep isn't possible, we arranged the shoot without on-site contact, or the above doesn't apply in any way.

OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE, DELIVERED.
