Photographer Website Builder

Our flexible website templates turn you into a website builder so you can create an photography website without having to learn a complicated third-party page builder that may be old news in a year.

All of our photography WordPress templates are block-based to give you total control over the layout of every web page on your site unlike Wix, Weebly, or SquareSpace. And extensive customization controls let you manage even the tiniest of details.

Starter Content Makes Creating Your Photography Website Easy and Fast

When you choose a website design template from BizBudding, you get all of the starter content and page layouts from the demo site. From the navigation menu and text to the images, buttons, and calls to action, you can make your photography website look just like the demo with our one-click install.

Go from Zero to Website in Just Four Simple Steps:

1

Choose Your Template

Browse our website design templates—all powered by the WordPress block editor. Find the perfect template for your photography brand, and feel confident knowing you can customize everything down to the tiniest of details

2

Purchase Your Template

Once you find a web design template you love, buy that single template or the full Mai
Design Pack. Both include all of our stunning website and blog templates. You can then use the template(s) on as many sites as you want!

3

Install in One Click

Our setup wizard installs your website template and starter content in just one-click so your new website, from the pages to the navigation, looks just like the demo site you fell in love with for your photography brand from day one.

4

Customize Your Template

With your new photography site up and running and ready to go in just three easy steps, all you need to do is customize the design to match your brand and replace the starter content with your own. It’s seriously that simple.

Now, you might be wondering, “What if I want to install a BizBudding template on my existing website along with the demo site starter content? What happens to my content?

Don’t worry, we’ve already thought of that! During the one-click install, our setup wizard checks to see if your site already uses the same pages in our starter content. Once it detects your pages and content, it safely installs new duplicate pages that mirror the demo site layout.
You get all of the starter content and demo site blocks and page layouts added to your site and all of your existing pages and content are preserved and protected.

How to Create a Photography Website

To succeed online, you need a website that attracts new clients, delivers a premium user experience, and acts as a central hub for your marketing efforts.

If you want to build an website for your photography business, here’s what you need:

The Right Web Pages for Your Photography Website

Professional photographers need a website that clearly expresses who they are, what type of photography services and other products they sell, and how they can be contacted. One of the most important pages you'll create is your homepage which should function as a glimpse into your best work with high-quality photo galleries that visitors can click on to see more. Our photography website templates come with pre-built pages and a design and layout that make showcasing your work and talent a breeze.

A Robust Photography Portfolio to Share Your Work

Any great photographer needs to share their work in a bold, big, beautiful, compelling way and tell the story behind each piece and share what makes it unique. Your online portfolio can show peeks behind the scene, the work from different angles, videos, and even notes of whether it’s for sale or already sold.

Avenues for Interested Buyers or Clients to Contact You

Photographers need to make it easy for interested buyers and clients who have questions about pricing, services, packages, and anything else to get answers. Create a contact form and page for inquiries. You also need to create an immersive user experience for potential clients who want to hire you for jobs or photoshoots.

An Online Store to Sell and Ship Your Prints

Part of earning a living as a photographer, means being able to sell your work online to a global audience. Whether you want to sell your prints individually or set up an online store to encourage buyers to load up their cart, our photography templates include ecommerce integrations and everything you need to start selling quickly.

An About Page that Helps People Get to Know You

Photography lovers love to get to know the photographers they are supporting. That's why you need an about page. It can also help people feel more at ease about working with you. Sometimes the photographer's personal story and passion is what inspires someone to buy their work or engage with them in the first place—so you need to help people get to know you, like you, and trust that you’re the amazing creative talent you appear to be.

Is WordPress a good platform to build a photographer website on?

We think WordPress is the best platform for photographers no matter if you are just starting out or have years of experience under your belt.

We choose WordPress to build on because we love how it puts YOU in control of YOUR content. With Mai Theme and WordPress, you can make changes on the fly without needing to engage an expensive developer or worry about custom code.

What is the best page builder or website builder for a photographer?

Photographers don’t need to buy another thing, like a third-party website builder, to create an amazing website they’re proud of and excited to market. With the WordPress block editor, you get all the functionality and ease of a site builder, without the limitations of typical page builders. Customize to your heart’s content and create something that is truly unique to your brand. (However, if you really want to use a page builder plugin like Beaver Builder or Elementor, you still can with Mai Theme.)

Do you offer any photographer website design packages?

Mai Theme coupled with the Mai Design Pack is perfect for DIYers because you get all of our website templates, plugins, access to our blogging community, plus the Mai Pattern Library. Learn from others like you, tap into our resources and expertise, and mix and match elements from different website templates. If you’re a beginner, Mai Solution is designed with you in mind. Focus on what you love and leave the technical stuff to us. Mai Solution includes everything mentioned above, plus hosting, for a one-time payment of $99, then just $9 a month after that. It’s everything you need to hit the ground running and have peace of mind.

With Mai Theme, Mai Engine, and the included design templates, you get all the functionality and flexibility you need.
