Email to Edith Estrada, photographer

Subject: Great meeting you at Hartwell Barn

Hi Edith,

It was good meeting you at the Hartwell Barn open house on Saturday. I'm Eduardo Farrow with Farrow and Co Sound. I'm a wedding DJ, and I've been doing it for 11 years around Dayton and a bit north.

I remember you saying you like working with DJs who don't take over the dance floor lighting. I'd like to hear more about what works best for you when you're shooting a reception.

Would you be up for a coffee sometime in the next few weeks? I can also send a few clips of my grand entrances if that's useful. No pressure at all, and if the timing isn't right, that's completely fine.

Thanks,
Eduardo Farrow

Short follow-up (send in 1 to 2 weeks if no reply):

Hi Edith, just following up on my note from after the Hartwell Barn open house. If a coffee or a quick call works, I'd enjoy it. If not, no worries, and I hope the season is going well. Eduardo

Before sending, confirm:

Edith's business name and spelling

What it does

Writes friendly, specific outreach messages from a DJ to other wedding vendors (photographers, planners, venues, florists, caterers, officiants, and others) to start or strengthen a two-way referral relationship. Handles cold first contacts, follow-ups after meeting in person, and thank-yous after a referral.

Use it when: Use when a wedding DJ wants to write outreach messages to other wedding vendors to build referral relationships, such as "write a message to a photographer," "reach out to planners," "I want more referrals from venues," or "follow up with a vendor I met."
