What this article covers
Use this article when you are deciding whether to ask for information in Intake, Extra questions or Style & inspiration, or keep it in your own Notes.
Intake
Use Intake for practical wedding details you need while planning the project.
Good intake topics include:
- wedding schedule basics
- locations
- family context
- key people
- vendor information
- planning constraints
- practical wedding-day details
Start with Collect wedding details with Intake if you need the main workflow.
Intake answers stay available for review. Answers from People & group photos and Moments & priorities can also create Shot List suggestions. You decide which suggestions to add.
Extra questions
Use Extra questions for questions about this wedding that do not fit the standard Intake sections.
Examples:
- “Are there any surprise moments we should know about?”
- “Which three moments matter most to you?”
- “Is there anything you do not want photographed or filmed?”
Answers from Extra questions are reviewed separately and do not appear as Shot List suggestions.
Style & inspiration
Use Style & inspiration for visual direction, preferences and creative guidance.
Examples:
- mood
- visual references
- editing preferences
- what the couple likes or dislikes
- creative direction for the day
Style & inspiration answers do not appear as Shot List suggestions.
Notes
Use Notes for your own conclusions. Notes are useful for sensitive information, planning decisions and things you want to remember but not necessarily share.
How to choose
Use Intake for practical wedding details, Extra questions for additional client questions, Style & inspiration for visual direction and Notes for your own conclusions. Add confirmed photo requests to Shot List and vendor details to Vendors when they become part of the plan.
