With New York Fashion Week kicking off today, we wanted to celebrate the artistry of Format la mode photographers.
When the pressure is on for every creative in the field to stand out in a fast-paced business where trends are born and careers are made in an instant, a professional portefeuille is your most powerful tool for standing out. To celebrate the non-stop creativity of the shows, we’ve curated a round-up of seven amazing photographers’ portfolios—one for every day of the week. Each site represents a masterclass in design and curation, offering a daily dose of inspiration for your own professional website.
1. Vlad Andrei
Vlad Andrei uses the Peak template to achieve a beautifully curated, grid-based portfolio that perfectly organizes his fashion-forward editorial work. A photographer and director, Andrei masterfully combines analog and digital processes to create powerful imagery with a distinct texture and feel. His background in documentary photography is evident in the bold, narrative quality of his fashion shots. This approach has seen his work published in notable magazines like Vogue Greece, Harper’s Bazaaret ELLE, among others, solidifying his collaborations with a wide range of global clients.
2. Phoebe Cowley
Phoebe Cowley’s portfolio uses the Horizon gauche theme to create an immersive, horizontally scrolling experience that perfectly suits her effortlessly cool aesthetic. As a London-based film photographer, Cowley focuses on fashion and portraiture, driven by the belief that a photograph’s story is what draws people in. This philosophy is evident in her work, where she strives to capture individuals who have something genuine to tell. The result is a portfolio that is both raw, intimate, and polished– showcasing an innate ability to capture authentic moments within a highly stylized context.
3. William Gormley
William Gormley’s portfolio uses Format’s Panorama theme to great effect, allowing his full-bleed commercial and editorial images to fill the screen with a fluid horizontal scroll. Based in Portland, Oregon, Gormley specializes in brand and product photography, with his background in cinematography evident in his dynamic visual storytelling and clean, polished aesthetic. His experience as an in-house photographer for fashion brands is clearly communicated by a portfolio that is both high-impact and professionally curated.
4. Ludovic Pieterson
Ludovic Pieterson’s use of the Peak template demonstrates its versatility, with a clean, tiled gallery that provides a strong overview of his diverse portfolio. The Paris-based French photographer and filmmaker describes his work as “pure, graphic and colorful,” a style immediately evident in his high-energy fashion week street style and bold product photography. His compelling aesthetic has led to collaborations with a variety of high-profile clients, including Vogue, Jordan, and L’oreal, establishing him as a key voice in contemporary fashion.
5. Iyesogie Ogieriakhi
Iyesogie Ogieriakhi’s portfolio is a stunning example of the Amazon template’s youthful and fun spirit, using a customizable masonry grid to showcase her image-forward work. The Nigerian-born, London-based visual artist focuses on capturing people at their most unapologetic and free. Her work explores non-traditional stories and aesthetics, reinventing notions of intimacy and beauty through a powerful use of color, light, and natural settings. Her love for experimenting and taking risks is palpable in a portfolio that is both deeply personal and visually compelling.
6. Emilie Elizabeth
Emilie Elizabeth’s portfolio uses the Sierra theme to great effect, balancing a vertical tiled layout with full-size galleries to present her diverse body of work. With a photographic journey that has taken her from her start as a teenager in Florida to her current base in Lisbon, Elizabeth’s work is a fascinating mix of moody, high-fashion editorials and bold commercial campaigns. Her extensive experience and unique vision have led to features in prestigious publications like Vogue Italia et Playboy, and collaborations with a wide range of brands including GUESS and Universal Music Group.
7. Gennaro D’elia
Gennaro D’Elia’s portfolio is a masterclass in clean, high-fashion presentation, utilizing Format’s Skyline theme to showcase his work with an accessible left-hand menu and fluid horizontal scroll.
