Pre-Production is the preparation and planning stage of a project.

We start by talking with you about your needs:

• What will be the main use of the images? Additional uses?
• What's more important: budget or quality?
• Have you made a shot list?
• What is your deadline?

Next we talk property specifics:

• Where is the property and what is it's compass orientation?
• Who is the onsite contact? What hours are they there?
• What is the best time to shoot?

From this input, we can begin to prepare an estimate and propose a shooting schedule.
