Width, height and depth of each appliance.
Tick each photo off as you take it: open cabinets, wide angles from every corner, the electrical panel.
Check what you want done. Your designer confirms the details with you.

This is my kitchen at [your street address]. I want to replace the cabinets, the countertop and the sink. I’m keeping the same layout.
The ceiling is 8 feet. I’m standing in the doorway. Wall 1 is on my left. It’s 10 feet 6 inches long, with 3 base cabinets and 2 upper cabinets, and the countertop runs the full length. The stove is in the middle, 30 inches wide, with a range hood above it, 30 inches wide and 18 inches tall.
Wall 2 is straight ahead. It’s 9 feet long. The sink is in the middle, under a window. The window is 36 inches wide and sits 30 inches from the left corner. This wall has 2 base cabinets and 2 upper cabinets. The dishwasher is right of the sink, 24 inches wide. The refrigerator is at the right end, 36 inches wide and 70 inches tall.
Wall 3 is on my right. It’s 10 feet 6 inches, no cabinets. The doorway to the dining room is 36 inches wide, 12 inches from the corner by Wall 2. Wall 4 is the wall I’m standing in. It’s 9 feet long, with the entry doorway, 32 inches wide.
The microwave sits on the counter on Wall 1. The floor slopes a little toward the sink. I’m taking photos of the sink, under the sink, and each wall now.
This is the kitchen at [your street address]. I want new cabinets, a new countertop and a new sink, same layout.
Ceiling height is 8 feet 2 inches. It’s a galley kitchen with cabinets on two long walls. I’m at the entrance on the short wall. That’s Wall 4. It’s 8 feet wide, with a 30-inch doorway.
Wall 1 is on my left. It’s 12 feet long. From the entrance: the refrigerator, 33 inches wide and 68 inches tall. Then 3 base cabinets and 3 upper cabinets. The stove is at the end, 30 inches wide, with a hood above it, 30 inches wide and 15 inches tall.
Wall 3 is on my right. It’s 12 feet long. It has 2 base cabinets and 2 upper cabinets, with the sink under a window in the middle. The window is 30 inches wide, 40 inches from the entrance corner. The dishwasher is next to the sink, 24 inches wide.
Wall 2 is the short wall at the far end. It’s 8 feet wide with a window, 36 inches wide, centered. No cabinets.
I’m taking photos of the sink area, under the sink and each wall now.
