2016 Holiday Gift Guide for Photographers
See All of Our Top Client Gifts Under $30!
Why give client gifts?
Your clients are the reason you get to do what you love for a living. Show them your gratitude and let them know how much you value them! Gifts are an investment in relationships with your ideal clients. Even a small gift makes a big impact in building a strong foundation for a relationship-based business.
Choosing gifts for your clients:
As a photographer, you’ve got the ability to offer a highly personalized gift with your clients’ custom images. Give them a gift that they can’t purchase in any of your packages or easily find elsewhere. Surprise them with something they haven’t seen before, but make sure the gift still speaks your brand.
Client gifts are a great opportunity to test out a new product you’re thinking about offering. If it goes over well, you can consider adding it to your product collections or a la carte options. Or it might just become your annual holiday gift that brings your clients back for a new session each year!
Top Client Gifts Under $30
We’ve created a list of the season’s best client gifts under $30. The great thing about all of these items is that they give your clients more of the images they love. They can all be put on display instantly, keeping you fresh in your clients’ minds while catching the eyes of their friends and family.
Metal + Wood Ornaments
$12 each when you order 3 or more ($15 individually)
Wood Ornaments are a brand new product! Choose metal or wood for personalized ornaments that feature your clients’ images. Ornaments are double-sided, so there’s room to customize with images, design elements, names and dates, or holiday messages. We recommend putting your logo on the back. These small keepsakes will become a lasting part of your clients’ favorite holiday traditions.
Find Ornaments under ‘Display Products’ in ROES.
Image Blocks
Starting at $15 each for 5x7" Image Blocks (ordered in quantities of 3, they do not need to be identical)
Image Blocks are photo prints laminated and wrapped around the sides of a 1” or 2” thick block. They come with a simple backing system that makes them easy to hang.
Image Blocks from sizes 4x5" to 6x6" are ordered in sets of three. Small Image Blocks with three different images look great together as a mini wall grouping, but this quantity ordering can also take care of three different client gifts in one order.

Image Cubes
$15 each for 4x4" cubes when you order 6 or more. They do not need to be identical. ($22.50 individually)
