What the Photographer Website Template Includes
The Photographer template is intended to show a portfolio and booking links, and its default structure contains four pages rather than a one-page site. Think of those pages as a framework for your own navigation. Before changing anything, browse the broader website templates collection for visual direction, and open the Photographer preview to judge the structure. Sample businesses and sample photographs are illustrative content, not customer examples, testimonials or promised results.
Because a four-page template exceeds the Free allowance of one page per website, the Photographer template itself requires Lite SME or Business. This requirement is separate from Wallet-card access: you need a qualifying plan to publish this premium template whether or not you create a digital business card. A contact Wallet card and the first one-page website are free, while a Wallet card linked to a website requires Lite SME or Business.
- Default versus added: the four pages provide the starting framework; add or adapt Text, Gallery, Contact and Links as your content requires.
- Core content: use ordinary Text for introductions and service details, and use Gallery sections for photographs.
- Premium distinction: Service Grid, Profile, image sliders and other premium layouts are separate section types, not ordinary Text or Gallery.
Build a Portfolio with Galleries, Text and Services
A useful four-page plan is: introduction and selected work, full portfolio, services, and contact or booking. On the first page, place a short Text section that identifies the photographer, location, audience and photographic focus, then use a Gallery for a small selection. On the portfolio page, arrange the Gallery so strong images appear early. Replace the preview’s fictional sample content with your own images and accurate descriptions rather than retaining it as placeholder claims.
On the services page, add ordinary Text sections for each area you genuinely offer, such as portraits, product photography or event coverage. Explain the deliverable, what the client provides, typical timing and where the work is delivered, but avoid promises that depend on circumstances you cannot control. If you later want a visual service list, the premium Service Grid is a different section type; it is not what makes ordinary service descriptions possible.
- Home: combine one concise positioning statement with a small Gallery of representative images.
- Portfolio: use one or more Galleries arranged by project type, with factual and current captions.
- Services and contact: use ordinary Text for service scope, then Contact and Links for enquiry and booking actions.
Add Contact Details and External Booking Links
Add the Contact section with the details clients should use, and use the Links section for actions that leave your QREasy site. A phone or email action opens that communication channel; it is not a reservation. For bookings, link to the external provider the business already uses. The visitor completes the next step in the provider’s flow, and any availability, confirmation, payment or other rules belong to that provider.
Do not describe QREasy as providing a native enquiry form, appointment calendar, automated confirmation, checkout or customer-management system. If the external provider has its own form, describe it truthfully as a link to that separate service. Before publishing, test each action on a phone and confirm that it opens the intended provider. Check that the surrounding copy explains whether a booking is confirmed there, by email or through another agreed process.
- Contact section: publish current phone, email and other agreed contact details.
- External booking link: name the next step clearly so visitors know they are leaving the portfolio site.
- Enquiry wording: do not call a message or form submission a confirmed reservation until the relevant provider or person confirms it.
Publish the Website and Update the Same Address
After adding and arranging the sections, publish the website through QREasy and open the hosted address on a phone with an internet connection. Website access needs internet, and the same address can display updated content later. When you revise a caption, replace an image or change service information and publish again, visitors continue using the same site address. The QR itself does not need to be replaced when only the content changes.
This is the practical advantage of a static URL QR: its encoded destination stays fixed while the hosted page behind it is maintained. A static code and an embedded static vCard are not the same thing. The QR for a website should encode the website URL, so scanning opens the site in the phone browser rather than treating it as a Wallet card. A linked Wallet card also uses the website URL and does not make the site run inside Wallet.
- Edit freely: update the hosted pages without changing the encoded URL.
- Reprint when necessary: if the actual destination URL changes, create a new static QR for the new address.
- Test reality: neither static nor dynamic QR guarantees scanning on every device, so check the final placement.
Share the Portfolio with QR Codes and Choose a Plan
Create a static QR for the published website address with the QREasy QR code generators, or follow the guide to creating a free QR code for a website link for the basic workflow. A dynamic QR is not necessary merely because you expect to edit the site. Dynamic codes use a managed redirect and have plan limits, while static URL codes can point to the hosted page whose content changes over time.
For a four-page Photographer portfolio, compare QREasy plans: Lite SME allows three websites with up to four pages each, and Business allows 33 websites with up to ten pages, so both meet the template’s four-page requirement. The premium template and website-linked Wallet cards each require Lite SME or Business, but those are separate conditions. Creating only a contact Wallet card does not unlock the Photographer template.
- Start with the final URL: publish the website, then generate the QR from the exact hosted address.
- Print once and update online: use the same code on portfolios, packaging or signage while the content evolves.
- QR allowance: all listed plans include unlimited static QR codes; dynamic codes have plan-specific limits.
- Test the journey: scan the code, move through the four pages, and try the contact and booking actions.
