The Locations Guide Template

A template for elopement photographers

THE ADVENTURIST + THE MINIMALIST

your choice of two different designs, made to fit your brand

As an elopement + intimate wedding photographer of 10+ years, I’m always trying to introduce new steps into my workflow that save me time & allow me to serve my couples best. Location scouting & sharing those locations with your couples is one of the most defining steps in the adventure elopement planning process. It’s this step that determines the type of experience you’ll build with your couples. Because of this, we have to share this information in a way that our clients can easily understand. They need to feel the excitement you have for that space, see the beauty that draws you to it, in order to fully picture the potential of its qualities. This is why I’ve created an easily customizable locations guide template for you to use with every single couple, saving you significant time & energy with every project.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

With just the click of a button, you’ll be able to create your own Canva design from one of these two templates. Each template includes everything you’ll need to efficiently & effectively share your favorite locations with your couples.

+ one of these two styles, each with their own immaculate design

+ 20 pages, completely customizable to your brand colors, illustrations/logos, and fonts

+ title page for general area or type of session

+ a personally written section with full copy on setting expectations

+ multiple image sharing pages

+ timeline page with example timeline

+ activities page with example activities

WHY I CREATED IT

This has always been one of the most time consuming sections in my process. It used to take me hours and hours gathering all the details. Now, with this template, I'm able to recycle the data I've already put together in the past & quickly create a guide for each unique project. It's made it possible for me to streamline this step entirely. I can quickly send them this info, and more securely store everything I've researched. This workflow will only get easier and easier as you make more versions of your guides, only requiring you to make minor changes for couples inquiring about the same location!

WHY IT MATTERS

Being an adventure elopement photographer, I've been able to see some of our world's most profound beauties. Not only that, I've been able to construct my entire business around traveling to these spaces for work! This didn't happen overnight or thoughtlessly. Many of my dream jobs booked have been a direct result of me strategically pitching my dream locations to my couples. If you're not booking the locations you want, I believe purchasing this locations guide template & utilizing its features will help you more directly reach your goals. I use this product for every single one of my jobs, so I can confidently stand by its value, and the success it's brought my own business.

WHO IT'S FOR

Whether you're in your 10th year of business as an elopement photographer or just starting out, the locations guide template is for you! You'll be able to more confidently step into your role as an expert of these locations through the way you display them in this guide. Elevate your client experience with organized information your couples will actually enjoy reading, instead of sending them on a wild goose chase with a list of links or overwhelming them with a cluttered email. Instead, showcase your favorite locations in a way they deserve, simplifying your workflows & adding professionalism to this significant step.

The cornerstone of my business is deepening my couple's elopement experience at every turn. I want each piece of the process to feel soulful, not like a checklist. It's little actions like sending them this comprehensive guide that leave your couples raving about their experience with you. Set up your systems more soulfully & see your success soar with the Locations Guide Template!

“Lexi has taken one of the most tedious steps of this process and streamlined it through the thoughtful creation and design of these templates. Each one is simple to use and customize while effortlessly helping you communicate the beauty of each location and the potential each place holds to your dream elopement clients. If you are an elopement photographer, videographer, or planner that has “location scouting” included in your client packages, you need these templates!”

Marcella Lane

“Lexi’s location guide template offers a beautiful look into the intentional standard of expertise she sets for her clients - not only will you receive the materials to create your own, allowing you to better serve your own clients and expand your own location portfolio, but you will be inspired in the depths of client communication— from setting shoot expectations, adapting to weather, to exploring the unexplored.”

Sierra Jessup Photography

"I'm personally not very good at designing guides/documents, so these templates are such a great starting point to create a beautiful custom location guide for each of my couples. I'm familiar with canva, but the tutorial on how to customize everything is great if you're new to it. There's even some thoughtful copy about choosing locations that I haven't considered putting in my guides until now. Super happy with it and I know it will save me a lot of time while also elevating my client experience.”

“I am SO thankful for this location guide! You can tell all the thought Lexi put into this with every little detail. The way she put the guide together really is going to level up my client experience when sending this. I typically just send a boring location guide thru google docs, but those days are over! So excited to have something so beautiful to send to all of my couples."

Iasis Kennedy

“Having guides like this is such a game changer, especially because I always get overwhelmed by all of the things that I could do in a guide, but this one lays it out so clearly and is beautiful. ”
