How a refreshed portfolio helped Stellar Shots show more of the stories behind its work

Stellar Shots had a decade of striking video work, but the old site buried it behind slow load times, cluttered navigation, and copy that talked about the studio instead of the stories it told. Visitors were leaving before they ever pressed play.

We rebuilt the site around the reels themselves — a fast, full-bleed video-first layout, a case-study format for each project, and an SEO structure targeting the specific niches Stellar Shots wanted more of (weddings, brand films, live events).

Within three months, organic traffic climbed 40% and the studio started ranking for the exact service keywords they'd been missing. More importantly, portfolio inquiries — the metric that actually pays the bills — grew 2.5x.
