9 min read

As a professional photographer, you (hopefully) love taking photos. You love giving your clients something to remember and capturing important moments in their lives or work. Of course, this is also your business — which means you want to sell more photography products and prints after each session.

How can you sell more prints and products through your ShootProof account? And which products should you sell?

Shootproof makes selling (and ordering) prints and products easy. Choose one of our world-class, professional printing labs to work with and you’ll be able to deliver gorgeous products with ease.

As for which photography products you should sell, we’re highlighting what our professional printing labs have to offer, and even sharing some of their most popular and gift-able products below.

A memento that’s both sentimental and functional, magnets make great gifts for family and friends. Magnets can be a great addition to the holidays, and can be included as stocking stuffers (bonus: you can earn more with each order)! With Bay Photo, prints are adhered to a magnet backing.

Size options include:

  • 2.5 x 3.5″ rectangular magnet
