SEO for Photographers

Turn Your Portfolio Into Steady Bookings

SEO for photographers turns your portfolio into a steady source of bookings.

Photography sites are often all images and no text, so Google can't tell what or where you shoot. We fix that without cluttering your design.

Searches we target for photographers

  • "Wedding photographer [town]".
  • "Family photographer" and "newborn photographer".
  • "Corporate headshots [city]".
  • "Event photographer" and "product photographer".
  • Venue-specific searches like "[venue] wedding photos".

Your photos aren't the problem. You just haven't found a team that understands how photographers get booked.

Image SEO that works

We rename files, write alt text and compress images, so your photos can rank in Google Images and your pages load fast.

Frequently asked questions

Do venue pages help photographers rank?

Yes. A gallery for each venue you have shot at can rank for couples searching that venue.

Will SEO change how my site looks?

Barely. Most of the work is in file names, alt text, page titles and short descriptions.

How long does SEO take to work?

Low-competition keywords can move within weeks. Competitive local searches usually take three to six months. We show you progress every month, so you are never guessing.
