Mr Maxx Visuals
A premium brand and a fast, search-friendly website for a photography studio covering real estate, hotels, vacation rentals and weddings across New York City and Nassau County.
01 · The brief
Look premium, get found
Clients judge a photographer by the first impression of the website.
Mr Maxx Visuals photographs homes, hotels, vacation rentals and weddings. Their clients are agents, property managers and hotel teams who decide in seconds whether a photographer looks the part.
They needed a brand that felt as polished as their photos, and a site that shows up when someone searches for a property photographer in their borough, then turns that visit into an inquiry.
02 · The approach
Brand, site and search
Four pieces, designed together so the brand, the pages and the search results all say the same thing.
- 01
Brand identity
A logo system in horizontal, stacked and monogram versions, in gold, ink and white, so it works on every photo, card and watermark.
- 02
Website
16 pages covering real estate, hotels, vacation rentals, weddings, pricing, portfolio, about and contact, with a before/after slider on the homepage and a caption on every photo.
- 03
Online booking
A "Check a date" flow: pick a service and a package, see the price update live, then choose a time.
- 04
Local SEO
Dedicated pages for Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, Staten Island and Nassau County, written to match how clients actually search.
03 · The screens
Built to get booked
Agents and hosts book from their phones between showings, so every page was designed for a phone first.
