Prepare a photography estimate after discussing session type, shot deliverables, usage notes, location, timing, coverage, editing, and delivery expectations. The sheet separates creative time, assistants, travel, equipment, products, post-production, and optional additions so the client can choose a scope before booking. It is an operational price proposal, not a replacement for any separate agreement the business uses for rights or other professional terms.
Describe the session and deliverables
Record client, session type, location, date range, coverage hours, participants, shot priorities, shot deliverables, selection process, editing level, delivery format, and expected timeline.
Price production and options
List planning, photography time, assistant, studio or location, travel, equipment, products, editing, gallery, print, album, rush, and optional coverage separately. Keep usage notes visible for later documentation.
Review the proposed scope
Check assumptions, exclusions, rescheduling process, expiration, subtotal, tax, deposit, and estimated total. Preserve revisions and connect the accepted estimate to intake, appointment, and production work order.
