It’s getting to be that time of the Year —
When we start to think about the ‘busy’ season and holiday cards and items, along with Senior Announcements and other items.
I thought I would feature some of the sponsors here at Beyond because they all have a amazing templates and I just love looking at their sites!
I know I am always looking for great resources. There are literally hundreds of places, but not all vendors allow you to use them for clients or what is known as commercial use. Some even have a restriction that you can not buy from them unless you are a photographer and going to use them only for your clients. This is a hard one because sometimes you don’t know what you will use something for and so many photographers are doing their own personal thing as well. Just try to be fare and pay for the upgraded fee if you think you MIGHT use it for client work.
Now that we have talked about use where do you get mucis can templates from? I have talked about music before, so today I will focus on great template websites. We are so lucky here at Beyond to have such amazingly talented sponsors.
My Lil Creations by Tina Parker — her work is vintage and simply stunning. I love that she sells sets of elements that you can use to make/create your own cards/albums or other projects. I also love that she will frequently sell just single cards, so I don’t end up with a whole set,t hat is left unused, when I really just needed one~ One of my favorite sets to date are her vintage frames. I have used them many many times to dress up an album but still keep it simple.
Photographer Cafe: Their simple styles and diverse collections will aide you in everything from marketing to getting client products that reflect you and your brand, like CD cases and images boxes! I wish I had more clients so I could justify more, ok ANY of their templates because I adore them!
Jamie Schultz Designs – Her work is contemporary and and in particular her senior templates are more edgy. If I did seinors I would be looking to invest in her yearly book/grad cards each year she has an amazing set. I also love her holiday cards! I am still working with a set
LCH Designs: Leah has an amazing aesthetic she creates simple yet beautiful templates that remind you of another error. Although her style is similar to Tina’s they are worlds apart in what they deliver! I just love her border set — again somethng I use often on proof images and proof books.
That is all for today! More templates and resources for brushes, textures and other things coming next week!~
