T2 photosImages up front. Control behind the scenes.

A photography portfolio, private galleries and a complete administration area, brought together in a custom web application.

My role: Product design, UX/UI and full-stack development
Context: Early October 2026

T2 photos homepage, showing the photography portfolio and a kingfisher — T2 photos screenshots supplied for this portfolio in October 2026, covering public pages, administration and mobile workflows.

The starting point

Showing photographs and delivering them to someone are different needs. The photographer needed a considered public portfolio, an organised image library and a way to share an album or selected photos without opening up the rest of the collection.

What I took responsibility for

I designed and developed the whole application, from the public experience to its administration tools. My work covers the interface, backend, data model, permissions, image processing, testing and deployment.

Inside the application

From the public portfolio to the image library and private access. Open any screenshot at full size.

T2 photos public and shared albums with search and tags — Find public albums and those shared with you, with search, previews and tags.

Landscape album with an adjustable grid, photo selection and download controls — Browse an album, adjust the grid and download a photo, a selection or the full album where permitted.

Photo library administration with filters and visibility for each photograph — Organise and find images in the library, with public and private visibility shown clearly.

Photo editing with metadata and visitor visibility settings — Edit a photo’s information and choose which metadata visitors can see.

Album access management by person and group with expiry and revocation — Understand who can access what, then set a time limit or revoke a share.

Administration of the homepage main image and carousel photographs — Choose the main image and carousel photographs without changing code.

T2 photos mobile album with selection and download controls — Browsing and downloading workflows, adapted for a phone.

T2 photos administration navigation on mobile — The library, albums and permissions remain available from the mobile menu.

The decisions that matter

Share photographs, not the whole library
Originals remain in private storage. Permissions are enforced on the server and in the database. Access can cover an album or selected photos, an individual or a group, with expiry and revocation. Permissions also determine whether a download provides the original or an optimised copy.
Give images room without slowing down the visit
The portfolio, carousel and full-screen viewer put photography first. Optimised copies support browsing, while galleries offer search, filters, tags and an adjustable grid. A photo, a selection or a complete album can be downloaded where permissions allow it.
Put the photographer in control
The administration area handles homepage images, photos, albums, people, groups and categories, with a bin and restoration. EXIF, IPTC and XMP metadata can be extracted and edited, with control over what visitors see. Management workflows remain usable on mobile.

What the project demonstrates

An application built end to end, combining a photography-led presentation with independent tools for organising, sharing and delivering images.

Under the hood

To be precise

My contribution is the design and development of the platform. The photographs in the screenshots illustrate its browsing and management workflows.
