Already having a website, I spent the majority of this module fine tuning my design and layout. Part of this was thinking about user experience. Creating a photography website is not just about showcasing images; it is also about providing a user experience that leaves visitors impressed and engaged.  I understood the importance of optimizing my website to ensure seamless navigation and maximum visual impact for my audience. Here's how I collaborated with a website designer to enhance the user experience on my photographic website.



Before implementing the changes, I has discussed with the designer from Split Pixel I asked for three people to look at the website and then asked them to look at it again after the changes was implemented. Here is what they had to say:



"I've been following Zak's work for some time now, and I must say, the website redesign is small but noticeable. The new layout is clean and intuitive, making it effortless to browse through his stunning photography. Even though the changes are small it is evident of thought went into optimizing the website." – Daniel, Photography Enthusiast, and friend



"As a web designer and developer, I appreciate how easy it is to navigate your website. The before-and-after comparison really highlighted the small improvements made, particularly in terms of streamlining the design and focusing more on the photography. It's clear that Zak values user feedback and is committed to delivering an exceptional online experience." - Max, Web designer



"I've had the pleasure of exploring both versions of your website, and I have to say, the updated design is a subtle but impactful. The simplified layout allows the photography to speak for itself, without any distractions. It's evident that Zak is passionate about his craft and is dedicated to providing a simple user experience for his audience and clients." – Sam, Photographer



Even though the changes the small this made me realizing how important user experience is, as my carer grows I will continue to optimise my site to that prospective clients and viewers can easily navigate my site.
