Display to the world your photography talents with a beautiful website.
Showing and not telling is key to promoting your photography business, and having an organized and helpful website is a huge part of that. Whether it’s showing your editing skills, highlighting unique shoot locations you’ve collected or just sharing the reviews of happy customers, your site can bring in plenty of potential clients. Keep reading to learn the four factors our team of designers and developers recommend that each photography website have.
Promote Your Portfolio
Highlighting your photography portfolio should be the main focus of your website. The key to promoting your images is to break them up into sections, such as portraits or engagements, that make it easier for visitors to process. If you have one specialty, for example weddings, that can even be divided into subcategories such as “Destination,” “Elopement” and more.
Feature a FAQ Section
Potential customers will always have inquiries, so writing a frequently asked questions section will save you a lot of time responding to emails and messages. Some subjects you might want to cover include scheduling appointments, price ranges and package details.
Spotlight Stellar Reviews
Hearing from satisfied clients can help push on-the-fence customers into becoming paying customers. Having a review section on your site, which should include a photo from the reviewed session as well, may boost your web-based leads. You can ask for these reviews directly from clients or pull the text from your Google Business or Facebook page reviews.
Keep in Contact
Make yourself easily available to answer questions, set up appointments, negotiate prices and more through your website. Having a prominently displayed “Contact” section will make that quick and easy, while keeping your information (such as email or phone number) protected by a contact form.
