How to brief a commercial photographer
Start with the audience, intended use, essential subjects, location, schedule and final formats. Add brand references and practical constraints, then let the photographer turn those facts into a realistic shot list and production plan.

Shortlist locations against the brief, then check ownership, permission, public access, parking, power, sound, changing space, weather alternatives and travel time. Treat drone work as a separate feasibility check rather than assuming every open landscape can be flown.
