What it does
Photographers need a site where the images come first and the setup stays out of the way. This theme handles that with more than 19 ready-made templates covering different styles and specialties, plus customizable layouts and a portfolio section for presenting your work. It is retina ready and responsive, so photos stay sharp on desktops, tablets and phones. Built-in sliders let you feature selected images at the top of a page or anywhere you want visitors to look first.
Editing works through Visual Composer and the Gutenberg editor, so you can adjust pages with a drag-and-drop approach instead of code. The theme sits on the Bootstrap framework and is compatible with WooCommerce, which means you can sell prints, services or digital products from the same site. WPML compatibility helps if you want your portfolio in more than one language, and Gravity Forms compatibility covers inquiry and booking forms. It suits both working professionals and hobbyists building an online portfolio.
Best for
- Professional photographers building an online portfolio
