Personal & Portfolio
Anam Hamza
Portfolio for a digital illustrator, presenting her work, her services for businesses and start-ups, and client feedback.
About the project
The portfolio site of Anam Hamza, a digital illustrator. It presents her work and services for businesses and start-ups, along with feedback from clients.
The challenge
Anam needed a home for her illustration and branding work that could also act as a pitch to businesses and start-ups: somewhere a potential client could see the range of what she does and get in touch in the same visit.
Illustration portfolios live or die on presentation. The images need room to breathe, individual projects need their own pages, and the site has to feel crafted without competing with the work.
The solution
I built the site on WordPress with the Lewis creative theme and a child theme, laying the pages out in WPBakery so sections can be rearranged without code. Projects are managed through Visual Portfolio, which gives every piece its own page.
Scroll-triggered animation from AOS and GSAP, together with Owl and Swiper carousels, brings the pages to life, a client feedback section builds trust, and GTranslate makes the content available in other languages.
