Project Objective
WedPro Photography required a website that could showcase their portfolio in an
aesthetically pleasing manner while also being easy to navigate and optimized for
mobile. Their goal was to attract more potential clients and improve their online
presence by having a visually striking, functional website that reflected the quality of
their work. They needed a user-friendly site that would allow potential clients to
easily view services, access portfolios, and initiate inquiries.
Challenges
- Visual Presentation: Being a photography business, the website needed to have
a highly visual appeal. The design required a balance between high-quality image
display and fast load times.
- Portfolio Management: The client needed an easy way to update and categorize
their portfolio to display various types of work.
- Responsive Design: Ensuring the site was accessible and visually appealing on
all devices, including mobile phones and tablets.
- Lead Generation: The site required clear CTAs (Call-to-Actions) for potential
clients to get in touch, along with integration options for booking appointments and
inquiries.
- SEO Optimization: The site needed to be search-engine friendly to enhance
visibility and drive organic traffic.
Solution Approach
- Design Concept and Theme Selection: We chose a minimalistic yet elegant
design that would let the images take center stage. Using a white and soft pastel
color scheme with ample negative space helped create a clean and professional look,
highlighting the vibrant visuals.
- Customized Portfolio Display: We implemented a portfolio section with
separate galleries for each photography category (e.g., weddings, corporate events,
maternity). This organization made it easy for visitors to find specific examples of
work relevant to their needs. Each portfolio image was optimized for quick loading
without compromising quality.
- Responsive and Adaptive Design: The website was designed to be fully
responsive, with layout adjustments based on screen size. This adaptability ensures
that images, text, and navigation remain clear and accessible, whether on desktop,
tablet, or mobile.
- SEO and Content Strategy: We optimized the website for search engines by
including relevant keywords, optimizing image tags, and implementing structured data
markup. Meta descriptions, alt texts, and keyword-rich headings were used to enhance
the visibility of WedPro Photography’s services in local and organic searches.
Lead Generation Tools:
- Contact Forms and CTA Buttons: Clear and compelling CTAs, such as "Book a
Consultation" and "View Portfolio," were strategically placed throughout the site to
encourage user engagement.
- Online Inquiry Forms: Custom forms for clients to inquire about services, ask
questions, and provide details about their event requirements.
- Integration with Social Media: Direct links to social media platforms helped
drive engagement and gave visitors access to additional examples of the client’s
work.
- Improved Mobile Experience: Bersache’s online presence strengthened,
resulting in better engagement with potential customers and a 20% increase in
returning visitors.
