Client Portrait Session Guide for Success

Do you spend too much time emailing clients about what to wear or how to choose their location? How about what happens if it rains and what to wear in the winter?

Use this guide to educate your clients to select clothing that makes them feel and look their best to ensure they love the way they look in their photos — all while not assuming gender roles — and improve your portfolio with every shoot!

You must know how important it is to have a session guide to send to your clients or you wouldn’t be here right now. You could write one yourself. But, wouldn’t your time be better spent honing your photography skills and building your business? 

Plus, how are you supposed to get people to dress like your suggestions without any pictures of people dressed like that yet?

It took us years to put this final product together. We improved it slowly over time adding better and better photos from Megan’s portfolio. Hundreds of hours have gone into it’s creation and re-creation.

It’s time-consuming to put a comprehensive guide together. And, let’s face it, not everyone is good with words. But, you could have it today. Once you have your clients dressing their best, your photos will be more high-end allowing you to raise your prices and move up in the photography world.

This guide is your saving grace. This newly revamped and re-written Portrait Session Guide for Success is the exact guide Megan Hoffer sends her clients when they book with her….pictures and all! This guide has saved Megan and her team countless hours emailing back-and-forth with clients about what to wear and where to hold their sessions. What about the cold? What about the hot? What happens if it rains? Etc. 

This guide will empower your clients to make the best educated decisions for their shoot.

Download the exact PDF (pictures and all!) Megan Hoffer sends to her clients and send it right off to yours. Or, use the text in the guide to create your own version with your own photos. In the guide, when discussing travel, it is suggested to contact you for travel fees. If you re-write the copy yourself, you could add your own policies to further eliminate the need for back-and-forth emails. 

• Adding your own photos, once you have some you are really proud of, along with some language directly from you is a nice touch, once you get there.

• This session guide is meant to give you a kick-start many don’t have when starting out.

Many photographers struggle with the volume of emails and how to tactfully get their clients to “dress up” when they are just starting out but you won’t have to. Once we started sending a session guide to our clients, even without pictures in the first editions, we saw a huge improvement in styling and coordination of outfits. We raised our prices right away and started booking even more clients who wanted the high-end photography experience we were showing we could provide.

This guide will pay for itself in no time when your clients start helping you scale-up your portfolio…and your prices. The fact that you are providing your clients with such a comprehensive guide in and of itself gives you reason to bump up your prices. You are providing your client with added value — all while making your life less stressful. Win-win.
