Photographer Portfolio Website: Hero Section Concept
A concept website design for a photographer and visual artist, built around one question: how do you make a portfolio feel like the work itself?
The hero section pairs a dark, high-contrast background with a single lime accent, so photography stays the focus. A subtle animated grid and floating photo tiles (Editorial, Street, Brand, Travel, Portraits) give visitors an instant preview of the photographer’s range, while a bold headline and one clear call to action (“Explore my work”) guide them forward.
Typography uses Syne for headlines and Instrument Sans for body text, keeping the layout modern and easy to read. The navigation includes a “Book a shoot” button to turn visitors into clients.
This is a self-initiated concept project, showing how I approach visual hierarchy, layout, and responsive design

CHRONOS: Dark, Cinematic Landing Page for a Luxury Watch Brand
The brief: A hero section for a luxury watch brand that feels expensive and quiet, and still gives the visitor a clear next step.
What I focused on
Colour: Deep green and black as the base, red used only for the light beam, the first headline word and the button. Limited colour keeps it premium.
Typography: A high-contrast serif for the headline, which gives it a watchmaking feel, and a clean sans-serif for supporting text so it stays easy to read.
Hierarchy: Watch first, headline second, button third. The eye moves in that order, and the animation follows it.
Motion: Slow, controlled movement only: a soft fade-in, a rising headline and a gentle light pulse. No bounce or flashy effects.
Trust: Three short proof points under the button, so the page isn’t only atmosphere.
