Series and galleries are a typed data layer backed by self-hosted imagery. The preview keeps commission enquiries local and can be wired to Formspree, a CRM or your own endpoint.
Delivered as full Astro source. Replace the clearly fictional identity, credits and self-hosted photo archive, edit series and services in the data layer, and wire the local demo enquiry flow to your provider.
What makes it special
Six photographic series
Curated collections with masonry galleries, opening statements and EXIF-style captions, presented in a quiet, gallery-grade dark system where the work is the hero.
An accessible lightbox
A focus-trapped lightbox island with Esc, arrow-key navigation, screen-reader live regions and restored focus — a real viewing experience, built as clean vanilla JS.
Self-hosted, zero-shift imagery
Every photograph ships with the preview and reserves its exact geometry, preserving the gallery composition without layout shifts or runtime image dependencies.
A commission business, not just a gallery
Services and pricing for editorial, portrait, commercial and fine-art work, a limited-edition prints page, and a validated local demo enquiry flow with accessible error and success states.
Refined, self-contained craft
A near-black canvas with off-white type and a warm-gold accent, restrained reduced-motion-safe reveals, self-hosted fonts, WebSite/CreativeWork/ImageGallery JSON-LD and zero external requests.
