What every photographer needs on their website

The most important things a freelance photographer can have on their website, in ranked order:

  1. Direct contact

    Email and/or phone number. Yes, you will sometimes receive spam. No major client is not filling out contact form to get your attention.

  2. Location

    City and State. If you split time between locations, communicate that.

  3. Portfolio

    Tightly edited or multiple tightly niche portfolios with no more than 20-25 photos. The moment you waste someone’s time with repetition with lower quality work is the moment they look for someone else.

If you’d like to learn more about photography, I teach photography workshops from Maine to Miami.
