{what to wear} seniors is here!

The long-awaited WordSmith's {what to wear} seniors guide is here--or should I say the guides are here? That's right! Our newest offering, a collaboration between WordSmith and Daveen Photography, is the perfect pre-session guide to send to your seniors--thoroughly and inspirationally answering the dreaded "but what do I wear?" question forever and helping your clients look their absolute best on session day! You'll receive the {what to wear} seniors guide geared toward girls as well as a separate guide (understandably shorter!) for the guys. While much of the text of the two guides is the same, the tone of each guide reflects its audience and the information within is similarly tailored to the reader.

You'll receive over 50 layered, customizable .psd files of text and placeholder photos; after any tweaking you may wish to do (though the text is complete as is!) and adding your own photos, you'll have a 35-page "magazine" for girls and a 17-pager for guys. The text is breezily written and easy to read (meaning it WILL be read by your clients!). Simply turn the .psd files into a .pdf (instructions included), attach to a pre-session e-mail or hide in a password-protected spot on your blog or client services site, and voila!--done!

Your guides also arrives with a bonus postcard (those of you with {how to sell} know the many uses of a piece like this!). Click to see these bigger!

The {what to wear} seniors guide bundle retails for $75. Our introductory price of $60 is valid now through Tuesday, October 20th. After Tuesday there will be no discounts or group buys until after January 1st with the exception of a special coupon offering next week courtesy of a fabulous blogger you all know (more on that next week, but the special intro price is lower than the coupon will make the guide, so $60 is the best price until at least January). You may purchase now, confident that you are getting the best deal possible. The button below will take you to the $60 sale price until Tuesday; after that time, the button will take you to the $75 regular price.

To purchase, just click on the button below.

But wait! There's more! (I've always wanted to say that!) A surprise!!!!

The perfect complement to your guide is WordSmith's senior pricing menu (template). Another collaboration with Daveen Photography, this beautiful, modern pricing menu arrives as layered .psd files awaiting your own photos. All text--I repeat, all text!--is included and ready for your tweaking, or simply ready to go!

While this lovely template is perfect for senior photographers, it would also work well for family, children, or wedding photography businesses. WordSmith's Senior Pricing Menu retails for $40, with an introductory price of $30 valid now through Tuesday, October 20th. After Tuesday there will be no discounts or group buys until after January 1st with the exception of a special coupon offering next week courtesy of a fabulous blogger you all know (more on that next week, but the special intro price is lower than the coupon will make the guide, so $30 is the best price until at least January). You may purchase now, confident that you are getting the best deal possible. The button below will take you to the $30 sale price until Tuesday; after that time, the button will take you to the $40 regular price.
