Hi there, hope you are doing well. So you want to have a website designed and built to show off your photography and also to sell prints. I will need a following details before I start thinking about design.
1. What kind of photography? Could you show me a few example of your photos which will be in display?
2. I need more information on what are the things you want to put up for display. A generic photography website is probably not what you are looking for, so it would be nice if we can discuss more on this topic and have a clear vision on what we can have or what will work etc.
How I work is:
1. Have a chat or call and discuss details, what you actually want, things we need to have, specific things.
2. Design basic layout. Take your input, make changes accordingly.
3. Complete the design and wait for your approval.
3. Start working on wordpress. Create a new wordpress theme from scratch. No theme or template.
4. Once coding is done, you will be able to start testing and make adjustments as required.
