Portfolio website examples

Three of them, and none is a mockup: each screenshot is the site that starting point actually produces, taken from the same baseline the visual tests check. Open one and it is yours to edit.

A portfolio has one job: make the work the first thing anyone sees, and make the second thing a way to reach you. The three below differ in what sits between those two — a studio explains how a project runs, a one-person site prints the rates, and a photographer puts a calendar there. Pick the one whose middle matches how you actually get hired.

What all three have

Questions people actually ask

Do I need a database for a portfolio?

Not for two of the three. The Personal Site starting point lists “No database” as one of its three features — three pages, case studies and rates, nothing that stores a visitor’s input, so it publishes as flat pages. Design Studio is the same shape with a studio page added. Photography Studio is the one that changes: it takes bookings and deposits, so it carries the database and back office that go live on Storefront Pro.

Can a client book a shoot from the site?

On the Photography Studio starting point, yes. It ships a Book page alongside the portfolio: appointments run on a 15-minute grid with a 10-minute buffer either side, two hours’ notice, and a deposit can be required before the slot is held — charged in your own Stripe account, with Naratake taking 0% and only Stripe’s card fee applying. The other two send an enquiry instead of holding a date.

How much of the layout can I change?

All of it. Every block is draggable, and 15 design styles restage the page around your work rather than recolouring it — your projects, case notes and rates carry over, while headings and photos you edited directly go back to the template’s, and one undo takes the whole switch back. The editor keeps up to 100 undo steps.

What does it cost to publish one of these?

Building and previewing is free and needs no card. A portfolio with nothing to store publishes on Storefront at $49 a month or $468 a year. Bookings and deposits go live on Storefront Pro at $79 a month or $758 a year, which is also the plan that downloads the source. The first payment is refundable in full within 7 days.
