What Is a Photography Questionnaire?

A photography questionnaire collects a client's preferences and requirements before a shoot, usually sent after booking.

A photography questionnaire is a form sent to a client after booking, collecting details a photographer needs ahead of the shoot — timing preferences, specific shot requests, or logistical details like location access.

It's usually sent once, shortly after the contract is signed, giving enough lead time to plan around anything the client flags.
