Page content

There are certain features that should be included on a business card, no matter the profession of its carrier. Your business cards should display your name and your photography business name, if different. Of course, contact information such as your physical, email and web addresses and your phone number must be included. Additionally, you should provide a brief yet clear description of the services you provide.

When you are looking for photographers’ business cards, there are other aspects to consider. Business cards for photographers should definitely include an image that highlights their talents, style, and type of photography they specialize in. Contemplate your target market when choosing everything from paper type to lettering font to the image you choose to showcase on your business cards.

Whether you are just starting a photography business or are a long-time pro, business cards can help you spread your name around, promote your skills and grow your business.
