03 Zayira Ray – Portfolio Website
A curated space for showcasing the professionalism and poetry of Zayira’s visual world.
Context
New York-based photographer Zayira approached me to create a portfolio website that would not only showcase her work but amplify it. With a practice that spans both editorial assignments and artistic explorations, she needed a digital presence that could bridge these two worlds.
The objective was to craft a platform that positioned her not just as a skilled editorial photographer, but as a visual artist with a refined and distinctive aesthetic. The site needed to convey both professionalism and creative depth—serving as a portfolio, a statement of her artistic voice, and a space for discovery.

For the website’s homepage, a concise image collection features 16 images that give a sense of the core of Zayira’s aesthetics and work. As the user scrolls down, they transit into the overview section, a structured gallery list where users can delve into each individual project.
Overview on Homepage with Digital Walkthrough
To provide more context to Zayira’s recent artistic work, which requires combining text and images, I also designed a dedicated segment of the website that gives users a digital walkthrough of her recent exhibition.
