This cost effective option is ideal for users who plan to make anywhere from 1 to a few hundred promotional calendars on a limited budget. As you are already doing the design on free software, you save from the start. Add your own images, logo and text with the simple Drag&Drop style of the Free Album Maker software (from CoffeeTableBooks.co.za.). Change the colour and style of the calendar, add frames, masks or effects with little effort.

On the other end of the ‘calendar scale’, we have our largest option, the A3 wall calendar (also available in an A4 option). The A3 wall calendar makes space for large images in a large open square above each month. It consists of 6 double-sided 250gsm A3 sheets displaying one month per side. The top is bound with wire and supplied with a hanger. This option too can start on any month you choose, this makes it an all-year-round gift or promotional item.
Photographers | Surprise your couples with a calendar of your 12 best images.
A) You impress your client by giving something extra.
B) They display your ‘advert’ for a full 12 months (longer if they trim off the bottom part after a year).
If the wedding is in May, you can design a calendar to start in June and end in May of the following year, on the first anniversary.
At under R200, that is a WIN WIN WIN situation. It is an ideal opportunity to ensure every image you place on the calendar has your name and number below – it’ all about branding.
The A3 and A4 calendars will be available in a selection of three designs. Using Drag&Drop, you will be able to change the colour of the ‘dates’ using effects from the ‘effects’ menu. If you select the 12 images in advance, a calendar can be created in less than 5 minutes! Our professional Photoshop colour correction service applies to calendars as well, you need only select this in the “finishing’ drop down when placing your order – it is only R1 per image.
Our thanks to Du Wayne Wedding Photography for permission to use his images on our sample calendars. We thank great looking model couple, Wadda & Arina, for allowing us to use their photographs.
