Do I need coding skills to build a photographer website?
Not at all! Palimpalem is designed for photographers, not coders. Everything works with simple drag-and-drop. If you do know some HTML or CSS and want to customize further, you can add your own code too.

How do I showcase before/after photos or photo series?
Our slider feature is perfect for this! You can create before/after comparisons or showcase a series from the same shoot. It's great for showing your editing skills or telling a visual story through multiple images.
Can I embed photography videos on my website?

Most photographers get their basic portfolio online in 5-10 minutes! Just sign up, choose a template, upload your best shots to the gallery, and you're good to go. You can always add more content and polish the design later.
Can I password protect certain photo galleries?
While we don't have built-in password protection, you can create private galleries by not linking them from your main navigation. Share the direct URL only with specific clients. For enhanced privacy features, check out our Plus service options.
Should I include pricing information on my photography website?
That's totally up to your business style! Many photographers prefer to discuss pricing after seeing the client's specific needs. You can use our forms to collect project details first, then provide custom quotes. Others find listing starting prices helps qualify serious inquiries.
Can clients book photography sessions directly through my website?
While we don't have a built-in booking system, you can use our contact forms to collect session requests with preferred dates and times. Many photographers prefer this approach since it lets them confirm availability and discuss details before confirming bookings.
