A website that sells your work, not just shows it.
We build simple websites and online shops on Shopify, Squarespace, WooCommerce, BigCommerce and more, for photographers, artists and image collections. Your images look right, buyers can check out easily, and you can update it yourself. We'll also help you plan your collection and find the right printers, free.

Built for people whose work is the picture
Most website templates are made for selling socks. Image-led work needs big, fast-loading images, clear print options, and a shop that doesn't get in the way.
Photographers
Portfolios, print shops with sizes and editions, client galleries and booking enquiries.
Artists and makers
Originals, prints and commissions, with room to tell the story behind each piece.
Image collections
Archives, historical societies and small collections that want to share or licence their images.
Free advice from 20+ years in print, frame and send
We've spent over 20 years in art printing, framing and shipping. Before you spend a dollar, we'll help you work out what to sell and who to trust with it. That advice is free, whether or not you build a site with us.
- Starting your collection
- Which images to lead with, how many to launch with, and whether to sell open or limited editions.
- Printing
- Which printers to talk to, which papers and print types suit your work, and what sizes buyers actually order.
- Framing
- When framing is worth offering, and how to price it without eating your margin.
- Order fulfilment
- Print on demand or holding stock, who can pack and send for you, and how to ship art without damage.

Who we are
We're Matt and Martine Leete. We've been selling art and photography online for over 20 years, so we know what it takes to turn an image into an order, from the first print test to the parcel on the doorstep.
More recently we started eggn, a tech company that builds socially responsible AI assistants. eggn studio brings those two sides together: practical experience in selling art, and the know-how to build a site that works properly.

Questions
Do I need to know anything technical?
No. We handle the setup and show you the few things you'll do yourself, like adding a new piece or checking an order.
Are there other costs?
Your platform has its own plan (for example a monthly Shopify, Squarespace or BigCommerce subscription, or hosting for WooCommerce), plus your domain name. We'll tell you exactly what to expect before we start.
Which platform is right for me?
It depends on how you sell. Squarespace suits portfolios with a small shop and has beautiful image-led templates. Shopify is the simplest all-round online shop to run day to day. WooCommerce gives you the most control and can cost less over time. BigCommerce suits larger catalogues with lots of products and options. We'll recommend one after hearing about your work, and if you already use a platform, we can usually build on that.
Can you help with social media too?
Yes. We can connect your shop to Instagram, Facebook and Pinterest and set up email sign-ups, at $80 an hour.
Is the printing and fulfilment advice really free?
Yes. We've been in art printing, framing and shipping for over 20 years, and we're happy to share what we know. You don't need to build a site with us to ask.
Who owns the website?
You do. The accounts are in your name and you have full access.
