Capturing Moments and Clients: Best Marketing Strategies CON'T
7. Client testimonials and reviews.
Encourage your awesome clients to leave 5 star reviews on your website, social media, and other relevant platforms. Testimonials provide social proof and build trust with potential clients. Consider sprinkling these awesome reviews all throughout your website so anyone on your website can see what it’s like to work with you.
8. Offer limited-time promotions.
Create a sense of urgency by offering limited-time promotions or discounts. This can incentivize potential clients to book your services sooner rather than later. Ensure that the promotions align with your brand and maintain the perceived value of your work. Think outside the box for this, this doesn’t mean offering your sessions for free. I’m not a huge fan of promotions, but some people do them all the time and love them. Do what feels right to you.

The Malcolm Hotel:

“Where Luxury Meets Legendary”
The rooftop terrace offers a breathtaking view of Canmore, creating a romantic atmosphere 💕for your celebration. If you are planning a canmore elopement the rooftop terrace is perfect as it’s very limited with the number of guests you can have.

Cheers to another year!
Goodbye 32, you’ve been a slice. 🧀
What a whirlwind 🌪️ this year was, from the many travels:
Costa Rica, Belize & many trips to the Rocky Mountains, Moraine Lake and across Canada this past year has come with many ups and downs.
Losing my Grams was something my heart wasn’t ready for - not sure it ever really would have been. But, I’m forever thankful to everyone who sent messages and checked in on me. You know who you are, and I’m forever grateful.
Out of all the turmoil, we must pull lessons, we must grow, develop deeper roots and keep moving forever. If there is one thing that hit home through the extended time I took to help heal, it’s that I’m filled with so much gratitude for a business foundation I have built so that it could keep running even when I couldn’t open my laptop & that is something I will continue to teach photographers and small business owners cause knowing you have a business that works FOR YOU when you need it the most, is rewarding!
Honestly speaking, I’ve never been great at sharing wins - I never want to sound boastful but there was a lot that happened this year that I’m forever proud of! Here are my top 10 both business and personal combined:
1) Finished up and sent out all the beautiful wedding galleries from this year before Christmas!
2) Added an in-house Day of Coordinator to help our couple's days run smoothly.
3) Was lucky enough to help coach 2 amazing small businesses @thefloralpop and @skpyyc - Ugh, I loved helping these companies grow and succeed!
4) I got to be creative and design multiple websites for a few small businesses - @thefloralpop @jadeandjackal @keepitcleanyyc as well as three more I have in the works!
5) @Adventurefloral and I came out with a Workshop / Content Day Calendar - which I’m SO excited to pre-sell tickets early in the new year, so many sure you are on the waitlist if you want first dibs!
6) Was part of a few styled shoots and got published in a few different magazin
