Start a Project

Overview

A professional makeup artist portfolio website showcasing services, portfolio gallery with before/after images, appointment booking, and course promotion.

Business Challenge

A professional makeup artist had no online presence — bookings happened over phone/WhatsApp, the portfolio lived in scattered social posts, and course offerings were invisible.

Why It Was Built

Built to turn a service professional's offline reputation into a bookable online brand: portfolio, services, pricing, and appointment requests in one place.

Target Users

Brides, event clients, and students looking for a professional makeup artist or makeup courses.

Architecture

CodeIgniter for a fast, cheap-to-host site; image-optimized portfolio gallery with before/after comparison; email-based appointment flow keeps it simple with no login friction.

Deployment

Deployed on shared hosting with MySQL; static assets optimized for fast mobile loading.

Scalability

Fully static-cacheable frontend; database only stores bookings and content — trivially cheap to run.

Challenges

• No online presence
• Manual appointment booking
• Limited portfolio showcase
• No course promotion

Solutions
