You Don't have time for

you don't have time for

Texting back and forth with each client about what they should wear for their session.

Hoping that your clients show up in something good so that you can finally submit a session for publication.

Being overwhelmed by not having a welcome gift as part of your client experience (and wondering if you'll ever get ahead).

Wishing that there was a template that you could customize without having to learn a *yet another* Adobe program.

from an aesthetic standpoint which is amazing, but content-wise it’s even better. The amount of detail that went into it is insane - I can't wait to print copies out and have them in my welcome boxes for my brides and my couples."

It actually made me realize how many things I was missing and forgetting to convey

that now I'm like, “Oh my gosh - thank god, it's all here.” I don't have to remember all of these things because it's in one place. This guide highlights a lot of things that I don't think the average photographer is really sitting and thinking about just because it's not necessarily our area of expertise.

morgan streamlined her workflow

Yes, It Really Works

I could not believe the depth and detail that Kameron and Willow put into this guide.

...it felt like I was going through an experience as I flipped through the pages. It is so comprehensive and full of everything you could ever want your clients to know about their photo shoot or session experience. I actually ended up printing the style guide and putting it into a beautiful Welcome Box for my clients so it feels like an experience for them too.

kristin elevated her client experience

It makes me really happy to think, "One less thing off my plate."

Honestly, it’s embarrassing, but for like the last four years, I've worked on quite a few style guides and I've purchased probably like four templates that I just never got done. I have like a couple unfinished in my Canva, but I just never found the time or I was frustrated with the formatting and having to tinker with it. Mom life, time, and frustration, I guess, is why I never got to get one done, even though I really wanted to. When I opened this style guide, I was like, "Holy crap. This is amazing." This is exactly what I would have envisioned for my clients. The layout was beautiful and I was like, "Wow, my images look good here."

This is going to save me so much time and really serve my clients!

I really wanted something that was going to serve my clients better as I have been upleveling my business and moving into a new space.  I met Kameron and Willow and was like, “Oh my gosh, they are already experts in this. This is going to save me so much time and really serve my clients so much better because they know what is going to look amazing and photograph well.”  It's full of so much good advice and so many good tips that are going to elevate my clients’ images. I feel like it is going to make a really big difference in my clients’ experience, in their trust of me, establishing expertise, and giving that extra layer of touch and care for them.

meet Kameron & Willow,

YOUR NEW stylish FRIENDs

Kameron and Willow are personal stylists who believe that an elevated style is the solution to standing out in a crowded marketplace. As past wedding photographers, they know the sense of dread that can come when you see your clients show up in ripped jeans and vans. Now as stylists, they help photographers build their portfolios and gain back hours of time by communicating the essentials of editorial style to clients.

style approach: Modern Minimalist influenced by Classic European

Can I choose the orientation of my style guide?

Yes! Once you choose the type (engagement or family), you will be able to choose the orientation and preferred graphic layout of your guide before purchasing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I print the guide to gift my clients?

You can download a "PDF Print" file from Canva and then upload it to a third-party printing company. We've had great success with Magcloud!

What is the word count of the style guide?

It will fluctuate depending on how long your customizable parts are (ie. your welcome note), but the base we provide you with is over 3,000 words.

Will I be able to download the guide immediately?

Yes - once your purchase is complete, you will receive an email with a link to download the guide.

Can I use the images included in the guide?

The images included in your guide are watermarked because they were taken by some amazing photographers who use our style guide (Kristin Dinsmore, Morgan Stoddard, & Megan Kawahara). You will need to replace these images with your own.

Can I add / remove pages?

Absolutely - Canva makes it very easy for you to customize which pages you don't want because they aren't necessary for your brand or how to add in new pages with more information about your client experience.

Do you make completely custom style guides?

We have found that these style guide templates get you 98% of the way to a product that you can send to your clients, and that you complete the remaining 2% by adding your images and branding. However, if you are wanting a style guide that is completely custom to your brand, your workflow, etc. we would be happy to work with you! Just send us an email here and we'll provide you with a quote.
