Nicholas needed a portfolio site that matched the intensity and precision of his black and grey realism tattoo work. The site had to feel immersive, showcase high-detail photography, and make it easy for potential clients to book consultations.

I built a fully custom website with a dark, atmospheric design palette, optimised image delivery through Cloudflare R2, and a real-time booking form backed by Convex. The site loads fast, ranks well locally, and gives Nicholas a professional online presence that reflects the quality of his art.

Problems solved.

Dark, atmospheric aesthetic

Deep charcoal palette with red accent tones. Full-bleed tattoo photography with subtle grain overlays to create a studio-like atmosphere.

Showcasing detailed artwork

High-resolution gallery with optimised WebP images served from Cloudflare R2. Lazy loading and responsive sizing for fast mobile performance.

Integrated booking system

Custom contact form connected to Convex backend with real-time data storage. Enquiries are captured instantly with email notifications.

SEO for local discovery

LocalBusiness schema markup, optimised meta tags, and a Google Business Profile integration to rank for tattoo-related searches in the area.
