Website design and development
The live website for Cape Town photographer and filmmaker Zacharia Mashele, designed so his photographs and films lead.


Zacharia Mashele is a Cape Town photographer and filmmaker. He needed a portfolio website where the photographs and films come first, are easy to browse and watch, and lead to a clear way to get in touch.
- Challenge
- A photographer and filmmaker needed a portfolio where the photographs and films lead and are easy to browse.
- What we did
- Designed and built the site, with one gallery for every photo set and separate routes for photography and film.
A portfolio that lets the work lead: large, uncropped photographs in justified rows, collections you can enter, and navigation that stays out of the way.

People. Places. Moments.: photography in justified rows


Films get their own dark ground and a player that steps from one documentary to the next.

The film player, stepping from film to film

The same experience on a phone: the hero, Selected work and the film player, sized for one hand.



- Portfolio experience and information architecture
- Website design and responsive development
- Gallery experience: justified photo rows, swipe and keyboard control, full screen
- Photography and film presentation, each with its own route
- Responsive interaction and launch
All photography and film by Zacharia Mashele. We designed and built the website that presents it.
