INQUIRE NOW

Your last three inquiries all asked the same thing: do you have anything under three thousand. Meanwhile the wedding you loved most this year came from a referral, not the site. You've been meaning to rebrand since 2023. There's a Pinterest board somewhere. There's a half-finished Canva logo. Mostly there's a busy season that starts in April and a quiet stretch in January where you're too tired to make big decisions.

I've done this for forty photography studios, which means we skip the part where you explain your industry to me. I know your inquiry form feeds Honeybook or Dubsado. I know your galleries live in Pic-Time or Cloudspot. I know your blog is where venue traffic comes from and that a post titled "Sarah and Tom" ranks for nothing. We spend the strategy call on your positioning instead of on catching me up.

Usually the problem isn't your pricing page. It's that nothing on the site says what kind of wedding you're for.

The inquiries you're getting aren't the ones you want

You get a recorded walkthrough of your own site. Adding a venue post should be a Tuesday-night task, not an email to me.

Honeybook, Pic-Time, Cloudspot, Showit, WordPress. Nothing needs explaining, and nothing gets built that doesn't connect to what you already use.

I run these projects in winter because you have no capacity for decisions in June. Four projects a year, booked a season ahead.

WHY A SPECIALIST

junie park

“I've hired two designers before and both times I ended up explaining what a first look was. Krista already knew.”

WHAT Photographers ARE SAYING

Junie Park's rebrand and Showit site —

I don't need you to explain your workflow. I know your inquiry form is probably too long, and that half the fields exist because a friend told you to ask about the venue. I know your site has to hand people off to a gallery without looking like it changed hands.

I know your year has a shape. April through October you have no capacity for decisions, and January you have too much time and not enough revenue. That's why I run these projects in the off-season and why I build in Showit rather than something you'd have to hire me back for.

I know the mistakes I keep finding. Homepages with forty images and no words. Pricing hidden behind a form, which filters out exactly the wrong people. Mobile layouts where the hero text sits on the bride's face. Galleries that take eleven seconds to load on a phone at a venue with one bar of service.

None of this is guesswork. It's forty photography studios, most of them booked out further after the rebrand than before it.

What I Already Know About Running a Photography Business

Everything is built in Showit, and handover includes a recorded walkthrough of your specific site. You should not have to pay a designer to swap a homepage image or add a venue post.

You leave able to edit your own site

Eight weeks from the strategy call, assuming you turn feedback around inside three business days. When projects run long it's nearly always the feedback loop, not the design. I take four a year, usually between November and March.

Eight weeks, and the timeline depends on you

Most projects land around $7,800, depending on page count and whether you need brand only or brand plus site. A third to hold the date, a third at the midpoint, a third before launch. The number is on this page because a pricing conversation on a call wastes both of us.

Investment runs $6,500 to $9,500

What to know about working together

A recorded walkthrough of your site plus thirty days of email support. After that, small questions stay free, because I'd rather you ask than break something.

The Handover

Pic-Time, Cloudspot, ShootProof, or Pixieset, styled so a couple clicking through doesn't feel like they left your site. Load time gets checked on a real phone, not a desktop browser window.

Galleries 

A palette and two typefaces with licensing sorted out, so you're not discovering on launch week that your headline font can't be used on a website.

THE COLOR AND TYPE SYSTEM

Twelve pages, not sixty. Colors, type, logo usage, and one page on writing your own blog post titles. Short enough that you'll open it a year from now.

The Brand GUide

Showit blogs run on WordPress. I install and configure Rank Math, set your post templates, and write the first three post titles with you so you can see the pattern before you're on your own.

Blog Setup 

Home, about, portfolio, investment, contact, and one venue or experience page. Styled on desktop and mobile separately, because your traffic is mostly phones and Showit lets us treat them as different problems.

Showit Site

A primary logo, a secondary mark, and a submark sized for watermarking galleries. Every file format you'll actually need, including the white version for dark album spreads, so you're not emailing me in March.

The Logo Suite

Seven pieces, and every one of them exists because a photographer needed it and didn't have it. Here's what you leave with.

What you actually get

marisol vega

“The thing I didn't expect was being able to update it myself. I added three venue posts in July without emailing anyone.”

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

Yes, starting at $3,900. It's the right call if your site was built recently and still fits. It's the wrong call if the reason you want a rebrand is that the site isn't booking the right people, since the site is where that gets decided.

Do you do brand only, without a website?

Yes, both, plus ShootProof and Pixieset. The handoff gets styled so a couple clicking into a gallery doesn't feel like they left your site. I also check gallery load time on a phone, because your couples are opening these at a venue with one bar of service.

Can you connect my Pic-Time or Cloudspot galleries?

Yes, if the URLs are preserved, and preserving them is part of the build. Showit blogs run on WordPress, so your posts and their addresses stay put while the design changes around them. Where posts are titled with couple names instead of venues, I'll flag the ones worth retitling.

Will my blog posts still rank after we move the site?

Thirty days of email support is included for anything broken or confusing. After that, small questions are free and I answer them, because I'd rather you ask than break something. Larger changes, like a new page or a seasonal refresh, are quoted separately and usually run a few hundred dollars.

What if I need changes after launch?

Showit, always, and yes. That's most of why I use it. At handover you get a recorded walkthrough of your own site, so adding a venue post or swapping a homepage image is a Tuesday-night task rather than an email to me. You should not have to pay a designer to change a photo.

Do you build in Showit, and can I edit it myself?

Eight weeks from the strategy call, and that assumes you turn feedback around inside three business days. When projects run long it is nearly always the feedback loop, not the design. I book four a year, usually in the off-season, because you have no capacity to make decisions in June.

How long does the whole process take?

Between $6,500 and $9,500, depending on page count and whether you need brand only or brand plus site. Most projects land around $7,800. Payment is a third to hold the date, a third at the halfway point, a third before launch. The number is on this page on purpose.

How much does a photography brand and website cost?

Yes, for the last three years. Before that I worked with anyone, and the work was worse. Now I know your booking cycle, your gallery hosts, your CRM, and the specific ways a photography site fails, which means we skip about three calls of catching me up and spend that time on your positioning instead.

Do you only work with wedding photographers?

Frequently asked Questions

GET TO KNOW ME

I've been designing for eleven years and working only with photographers for the last three. Before that I took anything, and the work was worse for it. Now I know the season your business runs on, the tools you're already paying for, and the three sentences that are missing from most photography homepages.

I build in Showit so you can keep the thing after I hand it over. I'll ask why more times than you expect. And I will tell you if I think a template would serve you better right now, which happens more often than is good for business.
