A concept for a photography studio — Northlight — built to put the work first and make booking a shoot effortless.
For a photographer, the website is the portfolio — and most of them get in the work's way. Slow galleries, tiny thumbnails, a booking link buried three pages deep. A prospective client is judging the eye behind the camera in seconds, and clutter reads as the absence of one.
Northlight had the images and the range — portraits, editorial, commercial — but needed a site that got out of their way and made hiring the studio simple.
I built the site around the work: big, uninterrupted images on a dark, gallery-quiet ground, so the photographs carry the page instead of competing with it. The chrome recedes; the pictures do the selling.
Then I made booking the one obvious action from anywhere — see the work, book the shoot, done. A studio site should feel like walking into a good gallery: nothing shouting, everything deliberate.

Minimal type and generous space — nothing competes with the pictures for attention.
From any screen the next step is obvious: see the work, book the shoot.
If your images are the reason people hire you, your site should get out of their way. Tell me about the studio.
