The Client Book: 20 Client Emails and 11 Releases for Working Photographers

You know the email. You just don't want to write it again.

The one that asks a client for money owed since March without sounding

weak or hostile. The one that answers "can I have the RAW files?" without

starting an argument. The one that rescues a gallery nobody has opened in

nine days.

The Client Book is twenty of them, written and ready to send. Fill in your

name once and the whole book fills itself in.

What's inside

Twenty client emails in shoot order: booking, delivery, problems, growth.

Every one is fenced between visible START and END markers so you never

paste the wrong part. Under each is a short note explaining what the email

is doing and when to send it.

Four releases: adults, minors, a nude and intimate session addendum, and

property. Plus seven short forms for travel and street work, in English,

Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, German and Japanese.

The part no other pack has

Every release refuses, permanently and unwaivably, the use of your subject's

face to make synthetic or generated images, and the use of your photographs

to train a generative system. Most release templates on sale today were

copied from documents written a decade ago. They do not mention any of this,

and read as permitting it.

It fills itself in

The PDF is fillable. Type your name, studio, phone and links once on one

page, and they appear everywhere they belong across all fifty-eight pages.

Fill a release on your iPad at the shoot, save it under the client's name,

print it, sign it.

Find what you need in one tap

Two index pages built around what just happened, not around categories.

"They asked how much" points to 01. "They haven't opened the gallery" points

to 09. Tap it and you are there. There is a printable version to pin above

your desk.

What you get

- The-Client-Book.pdf, 58 pages, fillable, works on iPhone, iPad, Mac and

Windows. Nothing to install.

- A printable one-page index for the wall.

- Editable Word copies of the emails and the releases, so you can rewrite

the wording until it sounds like you.

- A plain-English license.

Honest notes

These releases are a starting point, not legal advice, and I am not your

lawyer. Permission to use someone's likeness is state law and it varies.

If your work involves commercial licensing or advertising, have a lawyer in

your own state read them once. Every document says so on its own face.

Open the PDF in Files, Preview or Acrobat Reader. Apple Books will display

it beautifully and will not save anything you type into it.
