I need a clean, minimal, and lightning-fast static site that puts my photography front and center. The design must be fully responsive so it looks flawless on phones, tablets, and large desktops alike. A carousel-style portfolio is essential; visitors should be able to glide through images smoothly with subtle hover effects, tasteful scroll animations, and elegant image transitions that never distract from the shots themselves. Pages and sections • Home with a strong hero image and concise intro • Gallery powered by the carousel/slider described above • About page that tells my story, shares the brand’s mission & vision, and highlights awards and recognitions • Contact page featuring either an embedded form or direct WhatsApp link for quick enquiries Tech preferences You are free to build with pure HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript, or leverage React if that helps achieve a sharper UI and component-based structure. Whatever you choose, the output must remain a static export so hosting stays simple and performance stays high. Please keep the codebase SEO-friendly (proper semantic tags, meta data, alt text, and lightweight assets). Timeline & hand-off I’m aiming for a 5–7 day turnaround. At delivery I’ll need: – All source files (organized and commented) – A build/production folder ready to deploy – Basic instructions for updating images and copy myself down the road Show me a link or screenshots of similar photography or design-heavy sites you’ve handled so I can gauge fit quickly. I look forward to seeing your work and collaborating on a site that lets the photos speak for themselves.
