A site photo needs a location and a question
Format: Company perspective.
“See attached” gives the office a photo, but not a task.
A useful photo note tells the reviewer where to look and what needs an answer. It does not turn the image into a design finding or an approved change.
Procore's change-event form has fields for the source of a change and attached files.[1] Our note adds a question for the reviewer. Keep the photo linked to what the sender reported. Do not treat the image alone as the answer.
Copy this photo note:
- Job reference:
- Photo file ID:
- Location as reported:
- Supplied by:
- Observation date and source:
- Received date:
- What the sender says the photo shows:
- Exact question for review:
- Named reviewer:
- Unconfirmed details:
Hypothetical example: “Job J-18, photo P-4. Location reported by the foreman: east storage room doorway. Observation date not confirmed; received Tuesday. Sender says this is the location discussed in the site meeting. Question: Which existing scope record should this note be attached to? Reviewer: project manager. No technical finding recorded.”
That note gives the office a specific next step without claiming the photo proves added work. If the room label is wrong, the source and question are still recoverable.
Before sharing a photo, check who may see it. If it shows people, a nearby property or private site details that the reviewer does not need, use a suitable review copy under your company's rules. Keep the original in its proper file.
Core Agentic can discuss a custom design that pairs each photo with its source and a question. This is a proposal, not a live image-review tool. Qualified people still decide what the image means for the work.
