    What a studio website has to do

    Buyers want to see work that matches their project within seconds, understand which services you offer, get a sense of rates and turnaround and request a quote or book a call. The site has to convert into quote requests, bookings and client portal logins. Studio sites usually break with full-resolution galleries that take ten seconds to load, autoplay video reels that stall on phones, one page mixing photo and video, and proofing portals that leak into search. Skyfield builds studio sites that stay fast with high-quality media, describe every project and keep client galleries private.

    Skyfield designs and builds the site, then the same team ranks it. Nothing gets handed off between a design shop and an SEO shop, so the structure, speed and content are right from the first day it is live.

    Built on the Right Platform

    WordPress fits most photo and video studios because galleries, booking and proofing integrations are well supported and media can be optimized correctly. Wix works for smaller studios that want to manage everything themselves, and Shopify suits studios selling prints or presets as a main line.

    WordPress

    Content-heavy sites, service businesses and anything that needs to be easy for your team to edit.

    Shopify

    Product catalogs, checkout and inventory for brands that sell online.

    Wix

    Smaller sites that need to launch fast on a managed platform.

    Drupal

    Portals, calculators, booking flows and applications that no template handles well.

    Built to Rank From Day One

    Most redesigns lose rankings because the new site launches without the redirects, page structure and technical setup the old one had earned. Skyfield builds every website for photo and video studios the way we would want to inherit it as your SEO team, because we are your SEO team.

    The site launches with clean URL structure, schema markup, fast Core Web Vitals, tracking in GA4 and Search Console, and content written for the searches your customers make on Google and inside AI assistants.

    Website Questions From Photography and Videography Businesses

    Website development is quoted per project based on portfolio size, service lines, booking tools and portal integrations. A typical studio site takes six to ten weeks, with media preparation and project write-ups taking most of that time.

    Yes. We keep or redirect every project and service URL, carry over content that ranks, preserve image file names and alt text where possible, and monitor Search Console after launch so traffic holds.

    HoneyBook, Dubsado and Studio Ninja for client management, Calendly or Acuity for consultations, Pixieset, ShootProof and Pic-Time for proofing, Vimeo for video hosting and Shopify for print or preset sales.

    You own the domain, design, content and code. We host on a managed provider under your account, train your team to add projects and galleries, and hand over full admin access.

    The build sets up structure and speed. Rankings for shoot type and city terms and AI citations grow through new project pages, industry content and directory alignment, so most studios continue with a monthly SEO and GEO plan.
