Notes for a completed architectural shoot.
Before
Schedule after punch list, furnishings, and any exterior touch-ups are done. I time key rooms for daylight where it matters; spring and fall are usually easiest in the Hudson Valley and Connecticut.
Clean surfaces, clear construction clutter, stage accessories deliberately, and turn all interior lights on so we can decide what stays on.
We align on priorities (web, awards, print, etc.). I bring a shot plan and adjust on site.
Day of
Most houses run about half a day; larger commercial spaces can take a full day. Coverage is usually wides, mids, details, and exteriors in context. I tether when it helps you see frames as we go.
After
Typical turnaround is about one to two weeks. Deliverables are retouched for color and verticals, with files sized for print and web.
