Web design for videographers
Hand-built websites for UK videographers and production companies. Showreels that load fast, project pages that close briefs and clear package pricing.
01 / Why videographer sites have to work harder
A videographer's site is a showreel with a contact form. Both have to be sharp.
Couples shortlist three wedding filmmakers in one evening. Marketing buyers shortlist three commercial videographers in fifteen minutes. The decision happens after thirty seconds of showreel and a glance at your prices. If the reel takes too long to start, or the prices are hidden, you do not make the shortlist.
We build videographer sites that prioritise the reel, present project pages the way real clients shortlist, and split the wedding and commercial audiences so each one lands on a homepage built for them. Hosting, video encoding and ongoing changes are part of one monthly plan.
02 / What you get
Built around the way clients shortlist videographers
Reel, projects, prices and brief intake all working together to fill your calendar.
Showreel above the fold
A muted, autoplaying showreel hero with a click-to-unmute control and keyboard accessibility. The single highest-performing element on a videographer site if it loads quickly.
Vimeo and YouTube done properly
Embeds optimised so the site stays fast and the player still looks like yours. We avoid the lazy-load thumbnail tricks that kill engagement and break on iOS.
Project pages with the brief and the result
Every showcase project has the brief, the deliverables, the platform it ran on and a quote from the client. Marketing buyers compare on this, not on cinematography.
Wedding and brand split
Wedding videographers and brand videographers buy completely differently. We split the navigation, the tone and the package pages so each audience lands somewhere built for them.
Package pricing for both audiences
Wedding film tiers (highlights, ceremony edit, full film) and commercial day rates plus retainers. Real prices on the page win the bookings; vague 'request a quote' loses them.
Brief intake form
A staged enquiry form for commercial work that captures budget, deliverables, timeline and platform. You stop replying to 'how much for a video?' emails with a 30-question reply.
03 / How it works
From first call to live site
Reel and audience
A working call to nail your strongest showreel cut, your two main audiences (e.g. weddings and brands) and the work you want to grow.
Project shortlist
We pick four to six showcase projects, write the briefs and results, and structure the pages around how clients shortlist videographers.
Build and embed
We build the site, embed and optimise your reels, and wire up the enquiry forms with the right intake fields per audience.
Live and updated
We go live and refresh the showreel, project pages, blog films and seasonal content on request. New work goes up the week it lands.
FAQ
Common questions
Can I autoplay my showreel on the homepage?
Yes, muted by default with a clear unmute control and keyboard accessibility. We avoid heavy background videos that break the page on slow connections; the file is sized correctly for mobile and desktop separately.
Should I host video on Vimeo, YouTube or self-host?
Vimeo Pro for client work, YouTube for SEO-friendly content, self-host for short loops only. We embed both properly without killing page speed, and we let you keep the analytics and download controls Vimeo gives you.
Do I really need to publish prices?
For wedding work, yes. Couples filter ruthlessly on price and a 'from £1,800' figure earns more enquiries than hidden pricing. For commercial work, day rates and retainer ranges are usually enough; full quotes happen after the brief intake form.
Can the site handle two completely different audiences?
Yes. Most working videographers split between weddings (couples) and commercial (marketing teams). We structure the site so each audience sees the right hero, the right reel, the right packages and the right enquiry form, without the other getting in the way.
Will the site work for a small production company?
Yes. We build the same shape with team profiles, kit lists and case studies for each director or DP. Production companies benefit from a service-page structure with clear specialisms.
How do you stop video files killing page speed?
Hero videos are encoded for mobile and desktop separately, served at the right resolution, and lazy-loaded below the fold. Embedded reels use Vimeo's lite player or properly configured YouTube embeds so the page never waits on the player.
