A photographer is chosen on one shoot taken whole. So the site has to show that shoot quickly and at a decent quality — without making anyone wait for the first frame.
A frame out of the camera weighs 8 MB and does not need to in a browser. We compress it without visible loss and load frames as you scroll — the page opens at once, not after the third image.
“Price on request” costs you evenings of messaging. A range filters out those for whom it is expensive and leaves those ready to talk about a date.
Direct does not show when the shoot is or where. The form asks for the date, the city and the genre — you answer once instead of three rounds of clarification.
Portfolio, prices and enquiry fold into one page — a landing page. A second page is needed when there are several genres searched for separately: weddings, family, product.
The price and the timeline here are the same as on the pricing page: a niche page has no price list of its own. If you need more pages than the package holds, each extra one is charged from the open add-on list.
