Working with personal and commercial portfolios for more than eight years, it is always exciting to undertake this type of project. Black & White is a commercial photography portfolio owned by the Creative Director, Argyris Raftopoulos. The client requested the creation of a web portfolio to showcase their work, with the key feature of navigating and browsing photography easily by scrolling.

Design Process
MinimalModernProfessionalAfter organising the given content and structuring the project’s skeleton, I started designing the mockups based on the client’s brief. Adding horizontal functionality to the template, promotes ease of access, interaction, and navigation to the visitors. I created two horizontal templates that were presented in dark and light versions. The light version of the current template was selected providing strong contrast between the images and the background.
Project Breakdown
To give the client complete control using and updating the portfolio’s content, WordPress was used as the CMS platform. The template was developed in PHP to meet the design needs and work within WordPress. The horizontal scrolling is completely adjustable and lightweight. Uploading images of any size will fit perfectly in the template.
Responsive Design
The website is supported to display perfectly in different devices and browsers, while its responsive design makes it completely adjustable to different screen sizes.
CLIENT REVIEW
With Steven Kiridis we have a continuing collaboration for almost 8 years. He created my first portfolio website as Creative Director and Developer. His work is innovative and he is always trying to make the best that suits to your needs. Black & White is an amazing presentation for my photography. Soon we will begin another project together. I am always happy with the results, very happy actually, and he has very good skills in communication and understanding about what a client needs. Thank you for your amazing work!
