"THE TEAM AT RADE HAVE ONCE AGAIN RISEN TO THE CHALLENGE OF PRODUCING A SITE THAT IS EYE CATCHING AND USER-FRIENDLY"

Project Scope

Rade developed Nick’s last website and he was so pleased with it, five years later he invited us to rebuild it and more recently again in order to keep up with 'technology'. Now on it's 3rd iteration, the focus is always on producing a website that has not only the impact needed to show Nick’s photography at its very best, but one which was straightforward to update and which would allow for a constant feed of images from the relentless schedule of work he undertakes.

Solution

We created an eye-catching, responsive design but also added some interesting features to the site that reveal some of Nick’s activity behind-the-scenes as well as a timeline that shows off historical work going back to the 1990s!

The site was developed using the latest open-source Umbraco content management system. Umbraco offers the perfect mix of a well-appointed CMS with the flexibility to allow us to create custom features, such as the timeline. The responsive design ensures mobile users can enjoy viewing Nick’s photographs with easy navigation and a clean, simple interface. The minimalist design aims not to steal the show but instead allow the pictures to do the talking. The use of a bold,‘masonry-style’ homepage layout and Instagram feeds show off work that is hot off the press and some more candid images of Nick at work behind the scenes. The result is a site that gives Nick the optimum mix of portfolio space and fast-moving social sharing.

Testimonial

Nick Dimbleby, Photographer

"My latest website is the third version that Rade has designed and produced since I first started promoting myself online ten years ago.

The team at Rade have once again risen to the challenge of producing a site that is eye catching and user-friendly, ensuring that is fully future-proof, mobile compliant and Google-friendly.

Their ability to evolve with new technological improvements is noteworthy, and the back of house system on this new site is truly impressive. I can now modify, remove and add images and text at a few clicks of a mouse - something that is vital in this fast-paced online world

As for design, the Rade team delivered the site I requested on time and on budget. I was able to get as involved as I wanted, and there was no issue making changes and tweaks when I asked.

Hopefully the site speaks for itself."
