FAQs

What should I include in the project brief to ensure a freelance photographer understands my needs?

When creating a project brief for a freelance photographer, it's essential to include detailed information about the type of photos you need, the style or aesthetic you're aiming for, the intended use of the photographs (such as for social media, advertising, or print), the timeline for the project, and any specific deliverables required. Providing examples or inspiration can also help the photographer better understand your vision.

How do I decide on the deliverables for a photography project on Contra?

To decide on deliverables, first determine what end products you need, such as the number of final images, formats (JPEG, RAW, etc.), and resolutions. Consider if you need any edited or retouched images, and specify any special requirements you may have. Clearly communicate these deliverables in your agreement to ensure both you and the freelance photographer have a mutual understanding of what will be delivered and when.

What are effective ways to communicate project expectations and timelines with a freelance photographer?

Effective communication begins with a clear and comprehensive initial discussion where you share your vision, project goals, and timeline expectations. Regular check-ins can help keep the project on track, so agree on preferred communication methods (email, phone, video calls) and the frequency of updates. Providing feedback promptly on drafts or initial shots ensures the project progresses smoothly and meets your expectations.
