We’ve been working with Rich and Rosa since 2015 and have really enjoyed building our relationship over the years. Rich’s photography has always been a source of inspiration for us. Following our work together on his online print shop, we were delighted when Rich reached out to work with us on redesigning his online portfolio.

From this process, we got the chance to further understand Rich’s creative eye and design sensibilities. From the larger picture to the finer details, we worked closely with Rich to refine and develop the website to best reflect the high-quality of his work.

Website

As we continued to study Rich's work, we could see that there is often both a subtlety and striking nature to his work. Each photograph possessed a very intentional composition.

To set the focus on his work, we set all of the navigation and text content to the edge of the canvas; opening up the center for Rich's work to occupy the main stage. Beyond the single index button as the main navigation, the rest of the website utilizes a simple transition between a single image view and a thumbnail overview of the photo album.
