Halo is a photography studio website template with full-screen image slides, oversized typography and a mixed-width portfolio. Its 14 content pages connect visual stories with practical session planning and useful editorial guidance.

The expanded collection includes services, six distinct portfolio story paths, three journal articles, session preparation, image-delivery guidance, a shoot planner and a saved preparation checklist. Visitors can search the portfolio, open full photographs and carry their chosen outline into an enquiry.

What’s new in 3.0

• Searchable portfolio categories, coherent selected-story metadata and enquiry links, a resettable session planner and a checklist that remains usable without storage.
• Keyboard navigation, visible focus, readable controls and useful default content without JavaScript.
• Accessible demo enquiry states, duplicate-submit protection and a PHP handler disabled until configured.
• Self-hosted fonts, complete credits and reproducible builds, preserving the original hero and compact inner-banner proportions.
• Cold full-page desktop homepage resources changed from 3.52 MB across 29 requests to 2.92 MB across 33 requests, with 0 third-party requests before an optional map is opened.
