Must have photos

Does anyone have a list of must have photos they gave or plan on giving their photographer? I have a questionnaire from my photographer and I need to list must haves. I plan on attaching pictures of ones I have found on Pinterest but I was thinking I should give them a list of more traditional shots I that I would miss if they weren't taken.

Thanks ladies!
