Build a website for Ava Chen Photography, a wedding and portrait photographer in Seattle. Home: a full-width hero image, "Natural, candid wedding photography in the Pacific Northwest" and a Check My Availability button. Galleries page with three collections (weddings, engagements, family portraits) using a masonry grid and a full-screen lightbox. Packages page with three wedding packages and starting prices. About page with my photo and approach. Reviews page with five testimonials. Book page with an inquiry form (names, date, venue, package, message) and an option to pay a deposit with Stripe. Minimal style that lets the photos lead: white space, thin black serif headings.

Tips for a better photography website
Curate hard
Show your best 20 images per collection, not 200. Visitors judge you by your weakest photo.
Compress, don't shrink
Use large images, optimized for the web, so galleries stay sharp without loading slowly.
Show starting prices
A "starting at" price filters inquiries to clients who fit your budget.
