Websites For Photographers

Photography businesses have a specific set of requirements for their website design and the integrated functionality and site usability. Firstly, it’s vital to be able to display your images in all their glory, so your new site needs to be able to deal with high quality images.

We recommend of course that all images on your website are watermarked to prevent copyright infringement, but we also include left and right click disabling in addition to automatically watermarking images as you add them to your site.

When you want to add a new client, you can create a new, password protected client area just for them. They can then log in to a secure area and can access their images and order proofing prints with just a few clicks.

Having worked with photographers, creating websites that fulfil their requirements, we understand the photography industry and what you need your website to do for you. You need to;

• display your images beautifully but securely
• flexible design and layout options, masonry display, uniform, sliders, light boxes, full size images, its totally up to you

Photographers Websites

How your new website will work for you;

1. Your new client finds your website on Google and you arrange a shoot

2. You process the images from the shoot

3. You post a teaser image along with details of the shoot on your blog which automatically posts the blog entry on your social media accounts (on which you have already connected with your new customer).

4. They see their teaser image and get excited about seeing all their images. Sharing your blog post with all their friends & family

5. You upload all the shoot images to a password protected ‘proofing’ area.

6. Your client views their images in whatever display you have chosen for that shoot.

7. They then order and pay for images, albums and products in quantities and sizes you have listed.

8. You receive payment and prepare their order for delivery.

It’s as simple as that to run a successful photography website that will enhance your business and function as an efficient tool for promotion and marketing as well as processing orders and payments too.
