A 1000 Faces — Custom Wix Website for a Portrait Photography & Storytelling Project

A 1000 Faces is a deeply personal and visually stunning portrait photography project by Tomi Adetayo — a teacher and photographer on a mission to capture the faces and stories of everyday people from different backgrounds, ages, and skin colours from around the world. Webhil LLC built the complete website on Wix, creating a minimal, image-first digital platform that lets the photography and human stories take centre stage.

The project is rooted in a powerful belief: that every face tells a unique story. The website needed to honour that vision — acting simultaneously as a photography gallery, a storytelling blog, an e-commerce shop, and a personal portfolio. Webhil designed a clean, elegant layout that puts the portraits front and centre while making it easy for visitors to explore, read, and connect with the project.

Key highlights of this project:

Built entirely on Wix with a minimal, editorial design aesthetic that lets the photography lead

Full-screen portrait gallery (Faces section) showcasing the growing collection of subjects from diverse backgrounds

Blog section where each face is accompanied by a written story — combining photography with personal narratives

Shop integration allowing visitors to purchase prints or related products directly through the site

Books page to showcase published works tied to the project

25 Kings — a dedicated sub-project page highlighting a curated series within the wider collection

Newsletter subscription functionality to keep the community engaged and growing

YouTube channel integration to extend the project's reach into video storytelling

Testimonial from a featured subject adding a deeply human and emotional touch to the homepage

SEO-optimized structure to support discoverability of the photography project online

Fully responsive and mobile-optimized design

This project is one of Webhil's most creatively rewarding builds — demonstrating our ability to design Wix websites that serve as both a portfolio platform and a fully functional content and commerce hub, all while preserving the artistic integrity of the creator's vision.
