Wildlife Photography & Tour Expeditions

Ewan Crosbie Photography

A landing page for a Costa Rica-based wildlife photography expedition, live and collecting waiting-list sign-ups ahead of the Founder's Edition departure. Full-bleed photography, a photography-first brand system pulled from the client's own materials, and a dual WhatsApp + email conversion path — no clutter competing with the images doing the actual selling.

Designed for
A specialist tour operator launching a premium, small-group expedition
Conversion goal
WhatsApp enquiries and waiting-list sign-ups ahead of departure
What it demonstrates
Real client delivery, a self-updating image system, ongoing deployment ownership

Marea

A dark, moody, editorial site concept for a beachfront fine-dining restaurant — built to make a reservation feel like the start of the evening, not a form to fill out. Deep mahogany and amber tones, cinematic photography treatment, and a menu presentation designed to sell the experience, not just list dishes.

Designed for
Premium, reservation-driven restaurants competing on atmosphere as much as food
Conversion goal
Reservations, with a secondary path to private-event enquiries
What it demonstrates
Editorial visual storytelling, mobile-first reservation flow, brand-led photography direction

Selva & Co

An e-commerce concept for an artisan accessories brand outgrowing "just Instagram" — built to give handmade goods a permanent, owned home online instead of a feed that disappears under a new algorithm every few months. Product-first layout, artisan storytelling, and a checkout that doesn't get in its own way.

Designed for
Boutique retailers and makers moving from social-only to a real e-commerce presence
Conversion goal
Direct product sales and newsletter capture for repeat buyers
What it demonstrates
Product photography direction, artisan-brand storytelling, e-commerce fundamentals
Real Proof, As It's Earned

Here's the framework every case study follows.

We'd rather under-claim now and over-deliver later than the reverse. Ewan Crosbie Photography, above, is the first real case study — built to this exact framework. As more engagements complete, this page will keep replacing design concepts with real, named work, so a claim is never made without the number behind it.

01

The Starting Point

What the business looked like before — real screenshots, real numbers, no vague "struggling online" summary.

02

What We Did

The specific, scoped work — not a generic list of services, the actual decisions made and why.

03

The Outcome

Measured against business outcomes — enquiries, bookings, revenue — not just traffic or impressions.

04

Client's Own Words

A direct quote, attributed and verifiable, not a paraphrase written on their behalf.

05

Timeframe

How long it took, honestly — including the parts that took longer than planned.

06

Permission

Published only with the client's explicit sign-off on what's shared and how.
