Photo Shoot Planner and Shot List
Write the shot list before the shoot rather than in the car afterwards, and tick shots as captured so nothing is assumed.

Photography and media
Shot lists, kit inventories and job records — for getting the shot, insuring the kit and finding out what the work actually pays.
Photography is three jobs at once: taking the pictures, looking after several thousand pounds of fragile equipment, and running a business whose real hourly rate almost nobody has worked out. There is a sheet here for each of them, and not one of them tells you what to charge or what to set the camera to.
Sheets in Photography and media
Camera and Lens Inventory
Get the serial numbers written down before they are needed, and keep track of what has been lent out and not come back.
PM-02 1 page
Photography Job and Pricing Record
Show what the work actually pays, by recording editing time and travel alongside the fee instead of remembering only the fee.
PM-03 1 page
Photo Release and Consent Record
Keep one signed record of what each person actually agreed to, so a picture is not used somewhere nobody discussed.
PM-04 1 page
Wedding Photography Shot List
Get through the day without missing the shots that cannot be taken again. The family groups run quickly because the names are already written down.

Stop a card being wiped before the files are safely in two places, by making the formatting column the last one you are allowed to tick.
PM-07 1 page

Rebuild a setup you liked months later, instead of moving stands around until it looks roughly like the picture you remember.
PM-08 1 page
Location Scout and Permission Record
Arrive on the shoot day knowing where to park, where the power is and that someone in authority has actually said yes.
PM-09 1 page
