Emulsion

Emulsion is a portfolio for photographers who'd rather the work did the talking.

Built like a printed photo book, it pairs warm cream pages with a confident serif and a single rust accent, so every image has room to breathe. The motion is subtle, the layouts are calm, and nothing competes with your photographs.

Behind the calm is a site that's simple to run. Every series lives in the CMS: add a cover, drop in a gallery, write a few lines, and the project page builds itself. The Home page, Work grid and "Next project" link all update automatically. Clients can filter your work by Portrait, Editorial, Landscape or Commission without a page reload, and a clear booking form turns interest into enquiries.

Features

CMS projects: cover, up to eight gallery images, intro, shoot notes, client, location, year and role for every series

Filterable Work page: instant category filters with a live project count

Editorial project pages: full-width cover, two-up, wide and three-up galleries, and a "Next project" section that keeps visitors browsing

Considered motion: light-leak hero, line-by-line text reveals, gentle parallax and smooth page transitions

Booking form: labelled fields, a shoot-type picker and clear Sending, Sent and Error states

Three breakpoints: Desktop, Tablet and Phone, each designed on its own, with a full-screen mobile menu that shows the current page

Accessible by default: 4.5:1 contrast, visible focus states, 44px tap targets, alt text on every image and reduced-motion support

SEO-ready: titles and descriptions on every page, generated automatically for each project

Easy to restyle: a style guide page with every colour, text style and component in one place

Home, Work, Project (CMS, 9 sample series), About, Contact and 404, plus a Read me setup guide and a Foundations style guide.

Perfect for
