Client: Charlotte Kiri Photography, Wanaka
Brief: To create a beautiful photography website to promote wedding, engagement, maternity, family, lifestyle and commercial photography services in Wanaka, Central Otago.
Charlotte Kiri is a Wanaka-based photographer who describes herself as a moment-inspired photographer for lovers of wide-open spaces, snowcapped mountains and the adventurous; and her documentary-style photography captures real-life moments perfectly.
Charlotte approached us to create a simple, delicate web design to promote her Wanaka wedding photography business. We started by looking at websites that she liked, discusing the reasons and then taking elements from those and designing the page layouts on paper.
We then built those up from there online, using a WordPress base theme with a great page builder tool to create a website that is easy for Charlotte to work with moving forward – fully customizable as her business grows.
Her lovely, delicate black and white logo created a direction for the overall aesthetic for the site – simple, and understated. We introduced one light pink shade, and then kept the rest in shades of grey and black. The pink is echoed in many of the images on the website, all taken by Charlotte, which bring the rest of the colour into the site.
Font choice was hugely important on this build. Like in the logo, we chose a beautiful serif font, and then paired that with a simple sans serif font in a light weight for headings.
If you are looking for a talented and passionate photographer in Wanaka, look no further than Charlotte.
I used envy to set up my blog and website and they have gone above and beyond in everything they have done! Michelle is so creative and Nathan is a whizz setting up web design! I’ve been so happy with their service they are going to build my website for my photography business too! I couldn’t recommend them highly enough!
