What creative professionals is this for?

Photographers, graphic designers, illustrators, videographers, architects, interior designers -- anyone whose work is visual and needs a place to show it off.

Can I update my portfolio myself?

Yes. Through a headless CMS, you can add new projects, upload images, and edit descriptions without touching code.

How do you handle large image files?

Next.js automatically optimizes images -- resizing, compressing, and serving WebP format to supported browsers. Your originals stay intact, but visitors get fast-loading versions.

Can I sell prints or services through the site?

Yes. A simple Stripe integration lets you sell prints, digital downloads, or accept booking deposits directly from your portfolio.
