Family & Wedding Photoshoot Preparation Guides

Done-for-you Canva templates with suggested copy to help prepare your clients before their session. Drag and drop in your images andĀ make simple copy updates.

Clients who know what to expect turn up relaxed. They've picked the right outfits, they know where to meet, and they're not worried about what happens if the kids melt down. That makes your job a lot easier, and it shows in the photos.

These guides do that for you. Send one out after a client books and most of their questions are answered before they think to ask.

How it works

Open the template in Canva, add your own photos, name and details, and adjust the wording where you need to. Download it as a PDF and send it to clients once they've booked.

Who it's for

Photographers who want clients to feel looked after from the moment they book, without writing a welcome guide from scratch.
