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 intro with full copy on the significance of choosing your location
+ a personally written section with full copy on setting expectations
+ multiple info sheets for each location with their own unique design (text areas, images, trail links & more)
+ 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!
