Planning guides

Plan an artist session that feels like you

A focused brief makes room for more creative work.

Start with the purpose

A press kit, vertical social post and wide website banner need different compositions. Bring examples of the formats you need and identify the most important use first.

Find your direction

Collect a small set of references for light, color, styling and mood. The goal is to create photographs that fit your identity, not copy another artist.

Agree the details

Discuss outfits, instruments, location permission and available time. Your written quote should identify finished image counts, editing scope, delivery and intended usage. Mention paid advertising or sponsor use before booking.

See you at the front of the room.
