August 12, 2025WordPress Portfolio Site for Photographers UK
WordPress portfolio site for photographers UK should do three things at speed: showcase work beautifully, let clients proof and select without fuss, and drive paid bookings. We build fast, editorial-grade Elementor Pro sites that look great on a phone and won’t buckle under large image sets.
DIY themes often sabotage images—slow scripts, clumsy lightboxes, and galleries that smear on mobile. We start with a performance budget, compress to WebP, render responsive sizes, and keep the JS lean. You get sharp, quick galleries and a clean path to enquiry or checkout.
Portfolio architecture that wins enquiries
Collections by niche
- Weddings • Portraits • Commercial • Lifestyle • Editorial.
- Short intro + curated images (20–30) per collection.
Client proofing & delivery
- Passworded galleries, favourites, downloads and expiry dates.
- Watermark options; resolution control; email capture for access.
Packages & booking
- Clear packages with add-ons (second shooter, albums, retouching).
- Booking form collects date, venue/location, timings and mood board.
Prints & products
- WooCommerce for prints, frames, albums and gift vouchers.
- Proper taxes, shipping rules and fulfilment notes.
About & trust
- Short story, approach, awards, publications; real client quotes near CTAs.
SEO for images
- Descriptive alt text, filenames, lazy-load, and ImageObject hints.
Curate hard. Show your best thirty images per niche, not three hundred. Let the speed and layout do the selling.
Elementor Pro vs DIY: why it matters to photographers
- Design system: global styles, grid rhythm, lightbox control and reusable blocks keep things consistent across collections.
- Speed: WebP, responsive srcset, deferred scripts and clean CSS hit Core Web Vitals on mobile.
- Editing: add galleries, swap hero images, publish blogs and update packages without touching code.
- Integrations: calendar, invoices/deposits, proofing and store—without plugin soup.
