There’s nothing quite so fulfilling as capturing sweet memories in your clients’ lives. Yearly family photos, anniversary sessions, and engagements make up a big portion of your work and you love it…until the sticky situations arise. Every photographer knows what it's like to have clients not pay on time, arrive late just as the sun starts to set, request RAW files (and unlimited edits), or demand you upload their photos 3 years later…

Sometimes it feels like the problems are endless. But it doesn't have to be that way!

The Legal Paige created the Family + Couples Contract to ensure you are covered in all the less-than-ideal situations that come along with documenting people’s lives. Instantly set boundaries with your clients, avoid worst-case-scenarios, and run a more legally legit business with this expert drafted, copy-and-paste template.

This contract covers situations like

   - Clients asking to reschedule the session,
   - Requests for additional edits and questioning of your artistic discretion,
   - Ensuring you have a proper model release for all subjects in the photos,
   - Clients not paying on time,
   - Bad weather on the planned session date,
   - Timeframe for when clients can expect to receive their online gallery,
   - Clients asking for a refund for a canceled session or dislike with the photos,
   - Travel costs,
   - Last minute changes to the contract,
   - And so much more!

I love using TLP Contracts

I have TLP Wedding contract and this one as well. It has been super easy to customize and I love feeling secure for both client and myself. Being able to edit it to my business practices is perfect, and the notes on the side are GOLD. I feel super confident with my contracts!

Love these contracts

I have purchased a few different contracts from TLP and they have made me feel so confident and secure in my photography business. I have been running by business for 6 years, and it wasn’t until I found TLP contracts that I felt extreme confidence in what I was sending to my clients. They are user friendly and I would recommend them to anyone looking to make their business legally legit!

Best business decision I've made

I now have 3 different contracts from TLP and they are all amazing! Super easy to edit and customize. I used to have this underlying stress with every photo session I did because I either didn't use a contract or was using a free template I got from google (which was such a waste, it was like 1.5 pages long and looking back it definitely wouldn't have actually held up in a court). Now I am at peace every time I send a TLP contract out to a client because I know I'm covered.
