Photographer
Import the Photographer design and it brings blocks and content types of its own, on top of the main Canvas library. Read this page when you are working on a site built from Photographer and meet a block you cannot find in the main reference.
These items stay registered on every site so that content you have already imported keeps rendering, and they appear in the block inserter only where the design is in use.
