In most cases, at least a short shot list is beneficial to guide the photographer and ensure that certain moments are captured. Consider what sort of balance you operate best under and generally prefer. Note that some shot lists, particularly a lengthy one, might require more than one photographer available to accommodate each shot.

"I generally enjoy a sweet spot between an extensive shot list and free reign. I love to start out with a brief shot list covering the essentials and the VIPs, and from there I like to capture less staged moments and explore additional potential."
