Field Photo Checklist

Use when the foreman asks for photos and you need them to actually explain the problem.

What this covers

You need to send a field condition, damage, mismatch, material problem, access issue, or measurement to someone who is not standing there.

How to use this playbook

  1. Take a wide photo, a close photo, and a measurement/reference photo.
  2. Wide: show room/grid and surrounding trades.
  3. Close: show the exact problem.
  4. Measurement: include tape, level, tag, or mark.
  5. Drawing/detail: include the print if it is a mismatch.
  6. Message: location + problem + what decision you need.

Check

  • Wide
  • Close
  • Measurement/reference
  • Drawing/detail

Warnings

  • Do not send one mystery close-up.
  • Do not send blurry photos from a moving lift.
  • Do not hide damage or omit location.

Stop and ask

  • Use this whenever the answer depends on field condition and the decision maker is remote.
