A portfolio that shows the work the way it was shot

Zan Visuals shoots weddings, portraits, and events, and the work is genuinely good. The website wasn't showing it off. They were running an off-the-shelf WordPress theme, the kind that works fine on paper but ends up looking like every other photographer on the internet.

When your business is visual, the site has one job: make people feel something before they ever reach out. A generic template doesn't do that. They came to Headwaters for something built specifically for them.

We replaced everything visual and built the new site around their photos. The centerpiece is the gallery. Most photography sites crop every image to the same rectangular box, which quietly wrecks the composition of anything shot in portrait, like a vertical shot of a bride squeezed into a landscape frame.

The new gallery adapts to each photo: portrait shots display tall, landscape shots spread wide, and the layout arranges itself around the images instead of the other way around. Alongside it, we corrected the pricing that was wrong across the services page, made the contact and quote form actually deliver to their inbox, and gave them a way to update their own portfolio. They can log the date, client, price, and notes on any shoot, with no spreadsheets and no asking us.
