## Match Your Aesthetic
A dark, moody template works for dramatic photographers. Light and airy templates suit romantic, natural-light photographers.
## Gallery-First Design
Your photos should be the hero. Avoid templates that bury your work behind too much text or design flourishes.
## Mobile Experience
Test the template on your phone. The gallery should swipe smoothly, text should be readable, and the inquiry form should be thumb-friendly.
## Speed Over Style
A beautiful template that loads in 6 seconds is worse than a simple one that loads in 1.2 seconds. Speed = bookings.
