Overview / Brief:

With work acknowledged for its accessibility and depth for revealing power and humanity, he had been recognised by the Association of Photographers, the European Art Directors Club, the Design and Art Directors Club, the John Kobal Portrait Awards, Archive 200 Best Photographers.His portraits are also included in the permanent collection of both the English and Scottish National Portrait Galleries.

Our team relished the challenge of creating a new WordPress website for Robert’s photography and motion projects. Our brief was to create a simple, clean and elegant site that could showcase his work on all screen sizes, without any loss of resolution.

Success:

With a generous lead time to develop the concept and final deliverable, our team had full licence to construct something that was both bespoke and industry-leading.

Although uncomplicated in design, our creatives included technical flourishes that gave a nod to Robert’s craft. This included a ‘quick scan’ view of albums, contact sheet gallery viewer, and shutter-like hoover feature similar to that used on a DSLR camera.

Our development team ensured the quality of the photography was not at the detriment of performance, by creating a fully responsive site with portrait / landscape image considerations and the ability to maximise functionality like zoom and full screen mode that would enhanc the viewers expeirence.

To further develop the strategy, we chose to migrate FDF to Klaviyo, a new customer marketing platform better suited to e-commerce businesses. The main benefit being heightened audience understanding – each contact has a dashboard that gives insight into their purchase behaviour, site visits, email engagement and products viewed.

I’d like to thank StrategiQ for all of their hard work on the design and build of my new site. There are some lovely little functions that make it stand out from so many other photography sites.
