  • My team and I recently re-discovered Canva and it has been a GAME CHANGER for us! We use it for just about everything and it allows us look so professional and consistent across all our social media platforms! PLUS we recently converted all our professional guides to work with Canva and photographers have been LOVING it!

    I simply Love you. I've been a full-time wedding photographer for 29 years with my husband (over 1900 weddings). You are the one that I resonate the MOST with from all the "teachers". I now have, "meeting you", on my bucket list

    I'm excited you decided to take another look at Canva. It truly has evolved. To confirm, you're not giving clients the guide until they've officially become clients correct? I've seen people offer their guide as a free download on their website for email marketing while giving clients information about what it's like to work with them.

    This was so helpful! I've had a Canva account for awhile but only use it for business cards and an instagram story now and then. I'm motivated to use it for more things now! Thank you!

    If we don’t use the entire 90 pages or insert our own in Canva, do the page numbers auto-update? Is there also a way, whether or not we use Canva Pro, to update all the typeface (maybe based on headlines vs body text) and/or if we have the Pro version to apply our branding colors + typeface to the entire guide? This is very exciting, btw!

    I just made my pricing guide on canva not long ago ☺️and a reel 💛 has been useful! I’ve thought about going pro but same my husband is a graphic designer so he wants me to work on Indesign or illustrator 😂

    Where do you print your Bridal Guide?

    InDesign was a bit challenging for us photographers that don’t have any training. I had to hire someone to show me how to even use the program.
    Instructions on how to use Canva would be greatly appreciated ☺️

    Hi Katelyn! I love Canva!! Curious once you are done making your wedding guide, where you get them printed so it’s good quality?! Mpix is where I usually print photos not sure if they can also print magazines?)

    • @KatelynJames
      @KatelynJames  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@KatelynJames thanks so much! Will definitely look into that along with purchasing this template! I just wanted to say thank you so much for being one of my photography role models, I know Instagram messages can get lost, I took your consistency course last year and it has changed my way of everything for my business so much in the best way possible! I finally learned not only how to edit on lightroom classic on my computer instead of my phone but also found a style thats true to me and my work has improved tremendously in the last year! ☺️ love all your tips and videos always!!! 💕

    Do you make your guide booklet. Hard or soft cover? And how many do you order at one time?

    • @KatelynJames
      @KatelynJames  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Soft and I think if you order 10 or more you get a discount!

  • @sabrinalovestravel

    Hi I just wondering wich is the size you use for a guide like this one?

    • @KatelynJames
      @KatelynJames  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      8 1/2 by 11. It is sized to print correctly in magcloud.

  • @nickellejohnson4950
    @nickellejohnson4950 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have done my bridal guide in InDesign from your template. Do I have to redo the whole thing if I wanted to bring it into Canva? You sent me an email about it, but I wasn't sure if that is what I need to do? I would love to be able to update my guide without having to pay for InDesign but not sure if I want to spend the time to do the whole thing over again. Thanks!

    • @KatelynJames
      @KatelynJames  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You can upload your finalized PDF directly into Canva and it will convert it into an editable template. You may have to do some minor tweaks to font boxes. Depending on the size of your file you may have to split it into two pdfs to upload, or upload with low-res images and then replace them within canva. Email us if you have any trouble. katelyn@katelynjames.com
