Create a photo brief for a product listing. Product and key selling points: [PRODUCT_AND_SELLING_POINTS]. Where it will sell (Etsy, Shopify, other): [PLATFORM]. Image count allowed: [IMAGE_COUNT]. Equipment: [EQUIPMENT]. Brand look: [BRAND_LOOK].

Return a shot list table: # | Shot | What it shows | Setup (background, light, angle, props) | Buyer question answered | Text overlay (if any).
Typical set: 1 clean hero on a simple background; 2 in-use or lifestyle; 3 scale reference with a hand or common object; 4 close-up of material and craftsmanship; 5 color options in true light; 6 detail of back or underside; 7 packaging and what is included; 8 size chart or dimensions graphic; 9 customization or personalization examples; 10 care or process.

Add: lighting tips with a phone or basic camera (daylight near a window, diffusion, avoiding mixed color temperatures); consistency rules (same background, same crop ratio, same editing style); editing guidance (accurate color, no heavy filters that mislead; mention returns caused by color mismatch); image file specs (size, ratio, file format, compressed) with a check against the platform's current requirements [VERIFY]; alt text templates; and a checklist for the first image (readable at thumbnail size). Do not suggest altering the product's appearance in a misleading way.
