Photographer Cafe is known for its practical, stylish products that save you valuable time. From marketing materials to card templates to album templates to an inspirational blog, Photographer Cafe is a phenomenal resource for photographers of all levels and experience.
Photographer Cafe recently introduced its BASIC Newsletter content and templates. You instinctively know how powerful a newsletter is for keeping in touch with your clients and attracting new clients, and you understand how important it is to keep up your marketing efforts in this very competitive industry. However, if you’re like us, “send out newsletter” is always on your To Do list, but it somehow gets moved lower and lower down the list as other, more pressing tasks arise! Or, you may actually take the time to sit and draft a newsletter, only to find yourself plagued by writer’s block.
Photographer Cafe is here to rescue you! 2011 is the year you will send out the gorgeous newsletters you’ve always envisioned. Photographer Cafe makes it so simple – you can customize and send out a newsletter within a matter of minutes! With 12 beautifully crafted mini articles, you will have enough content for a year’s worth of quarterly email campaigns. Our content is especially designed for lifestyle child and family photographers and allows you to effectively communicate your style, expectations, and promotions with an upbeat, yet professional voice.
One especially lucky winner will receive a free Newsletter set of his or her choice. Choose from Retro, Curves, or Contemporary, whatever suits your style. Getting your newsletters done is going to feel soooooo good!

These templates look brilliant! I plan on sending out a monthly newsletter with “Top Tips for Fab Photos”, this is one of the top 5 things on my “To Do” list!!!
I am doing a 14days of love giveaway on my blog for the month of feb. Each day a new winner is announced. So far it’s been great and I’m having fun!
absolutely love your work tara!
I have been thinking about how important local businesses are, and I am hoping to do my first advertising at local businesses I support- the co-op, my gym, a local yoga studio… so this is inspiring me to make my first postcard and go ahead and put it out there…who knows what will happen!
I’m doing a table at a local family event. I’m looking forward to it and it really has me getting all my samples in place and getting organized…a total bonus.
Golly, I’m just trying to blog more than twice a month. :)
tara – you are fabulous :) thanks for such a great giveaway! this year i plan to actually contact all my clients on a regular basis….last fall the biz picked up tremendously, so now it’s time to really start a client contact system before it gets too crazy – so this newsletter set would be PERFECT for me! AND – i’m in huge LOVE w/photographer cafe… so it’s a win/win! :) thanks!!!!
My February marketing is a Winter Babies Newborn Special advertised on my blog & facebook page–it would be great to send it out in a newsletter as well! And, yes, I put newsletters on the backburner because they seem like so much work.
Awesome!! We plan to do a valentine’s day giveaway! We have really been needing to do newsletters too! These templates are fabulous!
Thank you! I am working with schools for the first time, and everything happens in Feb. It will certainly get my name out on a larger scale… here’s hoping it pays off.
I am running casting calls for senior models to do a few mini sessions …build my profile and hopefully gain some high school fans! I have wanted to do a newsletter for-ever but like you said it seems to always be moving down the list
Great newsletters! I would love to use them to send out updates to clients about promos or special new products I offer. And I’d love to do it in style!
wow! how awesome! I am currently building my website, and am actually planning on sending out cards to all of my clients advertising my new site. But being able to do it in newsletter form would be REALLY cool with this template! I love the RETRO one! Thanks for the chance to win Tara! peace out!
I love tge simplicity of the designs. Just beautiful.
Lovely templates!! I’m in the process of separating my wedding and families websites in order to better reach each market :)
My marketing goal is to blog more and participate in at least one school boutique event. Thanks for the giveaway!
great give away :)
my fab marketing plan this year?? i bought a big 2011 calendar and already went through and wrote in when i needed to design and prep things for upcoming holiday specials, when to get them printed/designed and set in email/blog, when to send them out, when to advertise it and dates to run them and complete them etc…
seems simple enough, but dates forever elude me and i don’t even think of v-day until february 8th when it’s far too late to run anything. easter? when is that? i won’t think of a great plan until 3 days before. so forcing myself to visually see it well ahead of time so that i CAN send things out is my bril idea for the year ;)
What a help this would be!!!
i’m gearing up for “HS senior” season putting together a really FUN open house with tips from stylists on hair and fashion and me and on what looks good in front of the camera with yummy goodies and fabulous door prizes!
hi. i like newsletters.
I’ve taken photos at a homeless shelter for young women with kids this past year. I’m showcasing some of those photos at the annual charity event for the organization.
I guess i had never thought of a newsletter, it’s brilliant….my goal for Feb is to build a new website for my photography. i am going to try to start a professional business doing this but it scares me to death….this product will take some of the scare out of the process….lol. thanks tara, for the opportunity to win….

This is a tool that I could so use. Always wanting to do more but get stuck in my own ruts of life. One of my marketing goals for the year is to up my fan base on facebook and offer more “specials” & such for my facebook fans. Gotta love free advertising!
I am going to announce a big change for my one year anniversary. Send emails to all my clients and try and get going on the newsletters again!
What an awesome giveaway! I have been tossing the idea of doing newsletters for awhile now and this would be PERFECT!
great giveaway! i’d love to win a newsletter–it IS on my to-do list. for feb, I might try to do a casting call for families w/kids (or just kids) over 8 years of age, to branch out from my normal baby/toddler photos.
awesome giveaway! marketing goal fro this year…. hmmm where to start?! i really want to work on client referrals- word of mouth is the best marketing tool out there so I am working on some sort of referral program :) a newsletter would be a fast and cost effective way to have my clients tell their friends- they simply forward the email!
Uahl.. This is so great. I am finishing my blog, and I have in my To do list a monthly newsletter. I already have Mad Mimi account, but I’m using only in Mother’s day, Fall sessions ;-). I have a lot ideas , but everytime I have to make work, I got lost. So my plan for February is announce my Blog, update website w/ a Newsletter. ( It is harder when English is not my first language. )
Wow, what an awesome giveaway! My marketing goal for the month of February is to get my website set up, and hopefully a few business cards printed out.
Thanks so much for your continued inspiration and the chance to win!
We shoot horse shows on top of weddings, and a newsletter would be a *FANTASTIC* way to spread the word in the horse community that we shoot more than just horses!
I love all of the goodies at photographer’s cafe! I don’t have any current marketing goals, but this would certainly get me headed in the right direction!
Since I’ve only ever managed to send out ONE newletter ever – this would be awesome for me!! My resolution for the year is to be better at sending birthday and thank you cards – something I always struggle with.
OK, I seriously lack in the writing ability category so these would be great in helping me w/ my marketing!
I’m going to launch an advertising campaign on The Knot.com for one month to really give my wedding business a push!
I love these templates!! My February marketing effort is a Newborn special.
Great giveaway! I would love to have this!
I have a few plans for February, but my main one is fundraising based. Due to UK government funding cuts a lot of facilities such as childrens centres are having to look at fundraising for the first time. I’m designing some trifolds at the moment that will be perfect for this market and will be mailshotting all of the local childrens centres in the next couple of weeks offering fundraising portrait sessions.
Great giveaway. As I’ve done sessions at nurseries/playgroups in the past I have quite a large database of past clients & really should think about producing a regular newsletter.
What a wonderful giveaway! Winning giveaway would be very exciting. I am currently working on opening a studio and February is all about branding my name for the opening of my new studio this spring. I would love to connect with my clients about my big news, and I feel that these templates are perfect for that. What fabulous designs, I love them all!
My goal is to complete all of the customization of the “marketing set” I purchased from Photographer Cafe!
I would LOVE them!!!!
Awesome giveaway! Thanks
I am going to networking groups! Thanks for the opportunity!
I have been working on a mailer to present and past families, about sports / performing arts photos still available to order (trying to get mom’s and dad’s to get working on those memory albums). But I can’t seem to figure out where to start. These templates are perfect!!! Thank you!
I think these would be a tremendous help for inspiration and taking the “daunting” out of the task of getting a newsletter sent out! I am about to raise my prices and will market a special deal on sessions booked now to ease the blow! :)
I’m going to try and just “market” that is something that has been non-existant. I love seniors so that will be my first try.
I LOVE photographer cafe!! I am in the process of designing a new model guide. My husband does model photography and we need a new guide to send out to potential clients.
This year, I am entering in print competition in hopes I will have a reason to do a press release.
Thanks for the giveaway!
would love to win these!
OOOH! What a great giveaway!
I would love to try and work on more facebook advertising as well as putting my business cards around for people to pick up.
Whoohooo! What a cool giveaway! I’m currently working on a new website and blog design to launch in February! :)
This would be a great marketing addition to my business!
