The challenge

Coralie Rauch wanted to migrate from a Wix site to a higher-performing, better-ranked WordPress solution, in order to gain local visibility for her photography services (maternity, newborn, family, wedding, corporate) and position her brand toward a more premium clientele.

Our solution

WordPress redesign with a minimalist, image-first design optimized for visuals. 8 dedicated service pages with pricing and specific galleries. Local SEO architecture (keywords: "photographer + Var city", long-tail by specialty). Media optimization (progressive compression, lazy loading) to maintain a strong Lighthouse score despite rich visual content. Qualified contact form by service type.

Coralie Rauch Photographie is a professional multi-studio photographer operating in the Var (Cuers and surroundings). Full redesign from a Wix site to a WordPress portfolio solution with 8 distinct services and transparent pricing.
