H&H Bonus Pack
For a limited time, I am offering a special “H&H bonus pack” as a free download for anyone purchasing OR upgrading to my Set I, II & III bundle. This bonus pack includes all 13 groupings that H&H offers as canvas clusters, 7 of which are not contained in my standard groupings. In other words, there are 7 ‘bonus” groupings in this pack! Installing this bonus pack into your templates will give you the full range of the H&H canvas clusters (many of which are also carried by other labs if you don’t want to try H&H – though I think you should!)
What, Where, When, Huh?
Wanna know more? Ok, so here’s the deal: Through some very funny circumstances (a story for another day!) the awesome folks at H&H learned about my product right around the time that they were developing their new canvas clusters. Being complete visionaries – they recognized that my wall display guides were the perfect way for their photographers to sell to their clients! ;)
At the same time, I had been getting lots of emails and comments on my FB wall about “where to get those funny sized canvases” in some of my groupings and also questions about how to price the groupings etc.
So, when H&H said they were totally on board with using my grouping names for any canvas clusters that matched my existing groupings and to developing any new ones in lockstep with my wall guides I was totally thrilled! And here’s why:
- It makes it SUPER easy for you to order clusters from my groupings because the names are the same.. no guessing or comparing to the clusters offered by other pro labs.
- H&H has put a total price on the clusters they offer which makes it really easy to simply add your standard COG markup and come up with a way to price wall displays for your client without doing any complicated math!
- That price they calculated is also a DISCOUNT of at least 20% over what it would cost to order canvas of those sizes individually. That means you can pass that savings on to your client to encourage the purchase of a wall collection!
- Because every canvas cluster they ship comes with a hanging guide for your client -How’s THAT for customer service?
- Because in their innovative EZSuite software you can order a whole cluster with the same color border at the same time, eliminating the need to have enough room to wrap the image around on each individual canvas (and the calculations that go with it!) Just import your images and drag and drop into their software. Easy!
- Because they are currently offering you a one-time 20% discount off of a canvas cluster – that’s a HUGE savings, and if you are a new H&H account that is in ADDITION to the standard $50 lab credit they give to new accounts! {See the PDF called “Discounts” that will be included with your product download for the code to use.}
- Because I have tried pretty much ALL the pro labs out there and H&H is by far the best – both for quality AND their excellent customer service. I would never partner with or recommend a lab I didn’t believe in wholeheartedly, and there is NO one that I trust more than these guys (seriously, you should really try them for prints too, not just canvas!) I am so proud that they have chosen to partner with me and I know you will be in great hands should you choose to give them your business as well!
FAQs
Q: What about other labs? Is H&H the only place these are available?
A: Of course not! Like I said, I love H&H, but totally understand if you want to be loyal to your own favorite lab. Lots of my groupings including some of these bonus groupings are available at other labs like Mpix Pro, Simply Color Lab, WHCC, Bay Photo etc. Feel free to order from any of those labs that you love! It just isn’t quite as easy to reference which groupings are which because the names aren’t the same so you’ll need to cross reference their sizes with mine to figure out which is which.
Q. What about groupings that aren’t available at H&H or any other lab but have “odd size canvases that my lab doesn’t offer?
A. Even though they may not show it in their price list, most likely your lab DOES offer non-standard canvas sizes because any lab I’ve ever used offers custom sized canvases. Just call or email them if it isn’t immediately obvious how/where to order them!
Q. Some of these groupings I already have in my rooms – what gives?
A. Yes – I mentioned that H&H offers clusters of some of the groupings already included in my standard product. Those are: 9 10x10s, Showcase, Harmony, Elegance, Trilogy II and Summit (which is in the stairs template only.)
I included them in this bonus pack anyway so that you would have a quick and COMPLETE reference at a glance of which groupings you can order from H&H just by opening up the H&H folder. If this isn’t important to you and you don’t like the duplication, feel free to delete them! You can also just drag the groupings contained within the H&H folder into your regular canvas groupings folder if you prefer to have all of your groupings in one place!
Q. What’s the deal with Trilogy {Original} and Trilogy II {H&H Trilogy}?
A. Kind of a long story, but basically H&H’s trilogy is slightly different than my original trilogy. Theirs has a 20×23 middle canvas and mine has a 20×30 canvas so I decided to add a Trilogy II {H&H Trilogy} to my groupings which corresponds to the H&H Trilogy and append the word {Original} after my Trilogy with the 20×30 middle canvas.
Q. Why are you including these as a bonus pack instead of in the product itself?
A. Originally, I had many of these new H&H groupings slated to be part of an optional (paid) expansion pack due to be released after Set III. And I still may do that at some point – or maybe I will roll it into the original product. I’m still not sure! But I also realized that while I was figuring it all out, I really wanted my customers to be able to take advantage of using the new H&H clusters as soon and as much as possible, so including them as a bonus thank you with purchase of or upgrade to my full line of product seemed to be the best way to reward my loyal customers by giving them something they either would have to have paid for separately or waited a while for – or both!
Q. I also own the LR3 templates – how do I use these with LR3?
A. I did not have time to create the LR3 templates for every single room I offer with these extra 11 groupings or I would never have gotten Set III out the door! I may eventually do so, but if you really want to start using them with LR3 right now, I have some tutorials up on my website under the videos section on how to create a LR3 template from any Photoshop grouping!

Q. Why are some of the groupings highlighted in red?
A. These groups are available from H&H as clusters AND as Mosaics. A Mosaic is one image split over several different canvases and the outer edge is a coordinating color (like the clusters.) I don’t offer a way for you to sp
