doubt i'll need 4hours to shoot, probably some minor editing at home too. will it still go by per tile shot or package?

read somewhere that quotation goes for per product shot but just unsure

if do all at 1 go, then ask give him special package price.

else, give him partial plan, like per trip how many shots and how much per session. (total will be more)

haha reflective at the silver areas, because the tiles are shiny by nature with texturing
