Another popular Photoshop Workflow Action, Twig & Oliveโs Film Grain is a must for whenever you want that gorgeous film-like effect. These multi-layered actions start with a base layer that can be tweaked to enhance the color profile and control the grain, completing with a subtle matte look at the finish. These actions are not one-click actions to look like film, because those never look like the real thing. With this series, you can finely tune each layer to achieve your signature look. You can use this set on its own or have it work alongside our other Photoshop and Photoshop CC actions, as well as with our Lightroom Presets. As with all of our actions, these work best on images taken in open shade or during golden hour. This set includes:
- (1) Color Enhancing Action
- (4) Film Overlay Actions
- (1) Film Recipe Mixer
- (5) Finishing Actions

To book your target wedding clients, you need to have exceptional communication from start to finish. Email is still the preferred medium to share the oodles of information you have with prospective brides and grooms, and using our robust email templates will bring your messaging full circle. We developed these templates for you to be drop-in ready for your business, but certainly you can (and should) customize them to your needs. They can be used by themselves, in an email template program such as Gmail, or in your studio management software (like ShootQ). The intent is not to cover every nuance related to the photographic process, but rather to lay out clear expectations your client can have of you, the photographer, as well as expectations you should have of the client. Great communication is fundamental to a strong business, so strengthen what youโre already using, implement what you donโt have, and engage your clients like never before.

It was reviewed several times with the advice of lawyers, clients, and from our own experiences in photographing thousands of client weddings.

We do our best here to discuss likely issues that need to be covered and provide a mechanism for resolving those issues.
