About this app
ShootBrief turns a location and date into a practical photography scouting brief. Enter a beach, trail, city, landmark, park, or remote destination. ShootBrief combines source-backed data with AI analysis to help you plan when to shoot, what to bring, where to stand, and what to watch out for. Each brief can include: - Weather conditions from Open-Meteo - Tide predictions where NOAA CO-OPS data is available - Sunrise, sunset, golden hour, blue hour, and moon phase - Parking, access, and nearby emergency context from Apple MapKit - Tap recognized addresses after generation to open them in Apple Maps, Google Maps, or Waze - Road and seasonal access notes - Drone planning considerations - Best times to photograph - Best angles and composition ideas - Gear recommendations - Safety checklist - Location-specific photographer notes Customize the sections you want, reorder them in Settings, choose your preferred maps app for address links, save briefs for offline reference, and share them with clients, assistants, or collaborators. ShootBrief is built for photographers who want a sharper plan before arriving on location. No subscription. No account. No ads.
