Best Zipfolio - Single Page Portfolio Template
Portfolio Web Template for Creative Pros
This one page portfolio template was built for graphic designers, photographers, illustrators, artists and other creative freelance pros who want a simple, elegant and effective way to showcase projects and promote services. It was designed to immediately show the visitor the two most important things: your name and your work.
The gallery is filterable and paginated — and its lightbox has space for project descriptions — so you can create a truly robust portfolio site. Add as many images or videos as you want and assign them to as many categories as you want. Clicking the menu zips the user down to information about you, your services, testimonials and contact details. The contact section has social media icons, an optional map and PHP-powered contact form. Light and dark styles are included to suit your taste.
