Web design fees start at $1500 for straightforward projects. A temporary one page website is included with all websites designed. Every custom built website is unique and differs in complexity, use of dynamic content, navigation, layout, number of images used, page size and so on. To give you better idea of my going rate before you request a quote, here are some sample offers:
Approximate web design fees for clean simple sites start as follows: around 4 pages - $1500, under 8 pages - $2000, under 12 pages - $2500, under 16 pages - $2750, under 20 pages - $3000. Of course all this depends somewhat on complexity and uniqueness of the projects, number of layouts, and such.
Custom design for client-updatable websites based on popular proprietary or free/open-source content management systems such as WordPress - $2500 (add $375 for each 10 pages of content you provide for inputting beyond the first ten pages included - count one page as approximately 250 words and two images on average).
If you need text for your website, we can suggest local professionals, writers and editors, who would be glad to help, or we can work with you on website text for around $0.75 per word if you are willing to put in the time and the necessary information in person within agreed timeframe.
Half-day of photo work for your website - add $320. The four hours include couple of hours or so for photo-taking and couple of hours for selection, post-processing, cropping and optimizing images for your website. Add $60 for each 100 kilometers out of London or $100 for each additional hour taking photos.
Two hours of photo work for your website - add $160. The two hours include an hour for photo-taking and another hour for selection, post-processing, cropping and optimizing of images for your website. Add $60 for each 100 kilometers out of London or $100 for each additional hour taking photos.
Instead of the above session rates, if you prefer per photo rate, it is $25 per room photo, per food item/gourmet dish photo or per commercial or industrial product photo an so on; minimum $160 per session. Additional alternative shots of the same room, food item, product and so on are $12.50 if available or requested. Portraits are not subject to these rates; please check Regular or Brief Sessions above for portrait work.
Stock photo license fees for very decent usable size photos range from around $15 dollars each for royalty-free use on your website to several hundred dollars or more, depending on quality and your preference - add $20 per image for our labour finding, purchasing, and processing each one. Alternatively, provide your own photos, buy your own stock images, hire a photographer or take advantage of our very affordable semi-professional photo services.
*Photos not included.

A custom designed static website with Shopify Starter buttons. My design fees for such start at $1750 for the static website under six pages with such embedded shopify button options and under eight products.
Generally it takes as many working days to have the sites ready as there are pages but add time for consultation, concept selection and revision period. Straightforward projects usually end up taking four to five weeks. Content management systems take longer. Your ability to provide the materials necessary is often the key factor. We can put up a one page business card website to have something up in the meantime. All work to be done and due dates are specified in writing once we meet in person to go over these details. After you make up your mind to go with us on the project, we take 40% up front upon signing.
