Photo Experience

Brand and website

Overview

When we first spoke with Photo Experience, the brief was simple: build a new website.

But as we dug deeper, it became clear the brand needed stronger foundations before we touched the site.

We led their team through a full brand workshop, split across three focused sessions.

We started by uncovering their brand core - what drives them, what they stand for, and where they’re going.
Then we defined their purpose, mission, vision, and values.
Next, we explored their positioning in the market and developed clear brand personas.

The outcome was a strategy that gave their team a clear direction - and gave us everything we needed to bring the brand to life.

We built:
‍
A brand identity rooted in purpose and aligned across the business
A set of clear, practical brand guidelines to ensure consistency
A new website that showcases their story, their energy, and their growth

Now, Photo Experience is positioned for expansion across Europe - partnering with some of the continent’s most visited attractions.

The new site doesn’t just look good.
It feels like them.
It captures the emotion behind what they do - helping people hold on to their most important memories.

Here’s what Ella said:

The easiest one so far.

I've done quite a few in my time and this has definitely been the easiest one so far and that is down to the team at hydro.

Hit the nail on the head first time round.

So then a couple weeks later the first draft came through and honestly I was blown away, I sent Marcus a voice note I think as soon as I saw it and was like this is amazing, this was far beyond anything that I could imagine a first draft to be.

Your project could look like this.

The answers you're looking for.

What if my project needs change halfway through?

Priorities change, especially in fast-paced industries. For fixed projects, we’ll update the scope of work if anything new is needed. If you're on a monthly plan, we'll update your board in the hydro portal and continue delivering as usual.

Can you work with our in-house team?

100%. We’re used to working alongside internal teams and third-party partners to keep everyone aligned and the work moving. We plug into your team wherever needed: that’s how we work with clients like Nexl, Taurex and many others.

Why not hire designers or developers full-time?

Hiring full-time takes time, budget and long-term commitment. With us, you get a team ready to start right away, with no hiring and no onboarding.

hydro vs other agencies

Working with multiple contractors usually means more calls, and more headaches. At hydro, you get one integrated team with a dedicated client success manager. We handle everything from strategy to execution, saving you time and keeping the project on track.

How many people will I work with?

Depends on what you need. Our monthly plan gives you access to 1-2 designers, developers + CSM. Bigger projects = double the firepower.

Do you work on projects or subscription only?

Both. The unlimited subscription runs month to month and brand and website projects are quoted on scope, split over three milestones: 50% deposit, 25% on sign-off, 25% before go-live. Full pricing is on the pricing page.

Can you help with branding, website, motion and graphic design?

Definitely. Whether it’s a new brand, a Webflow site or a full UX/UI revamp, we’ve delivered it all, quickly. You can pick what you need, when you need it. We'll bring it to life with ease.

How do I get started with you?

Just an accepted quote, signed T&Cs, and a first payment. That’s it. We get you onboarded fast so we can get to work the same day.

What does communication and workflow look like?

We work through our portal and Slack, giving you quick updates and tight feedback loops. No long meetings. Just consistent progress. We can also plug into the apps and workflows you already run, so nothing changes for your team.

Can I pause my monthly plan?

You can pause or cancel anytime. Just give us a heads-up beforehand so we can update our workflow.
