Videographer Website Design
Upgrading a Northwest-based media brand with a creative, scalable WordPress design
Introducing My Client:
Ben Maestas is the owner of Swae Media, a queer- and Latino-owned media brand dedicated to authentic storytelling through filmmaking and photography. After a decade-long career as an architect and designer—and years spent as a professional dancer and choreographer—Ben transitioned to media production, bringing his creative eye and intuitive approach to every project. With a mission to connect people through powerful stories, Swae Media helps brands communicate their message in meaningful and memorable ways.
The Task at Hand:
Ben had originally built his website on Wix but felt it was time to upgrade to a more robust platform that could grow with his business. He wanted to keep the essence of his original design while improving functionality, SEO, and long-term scalability.
A Team Approach:
Using Ben’s existing design as inspiration, we rebuilt his website on WordPress using Beaver Builder, providing a sleek and professional upgrade that better aligns with Swae Media’s vision. The new site features clean layouts, seamless navigation, and intuitive tools, making it easier for Ben to update content and showcase his work. Throughout the process, we collaborated closely to ensure the website reflected his brand identity while optimizing performance for future growth.
Tangible Outcomes:
Ben was thrilled with the transformation, calling the new website a “beautiful upgrade” for his small business. By combining his design ideas with WordPress’s flexibility, the final product not only looks great but also functions seamlessly. The revamped site enhances Swae Media’s online presence, giving Ben the tools to continue connecting with clients and sharing impactful stories.
A Tip to Consider:
Upgrading your website to a more scalable platform can elevate your brand and make future growth easier. Combining your creative vision with professional web design expertise can transform your site into a powerful business tool.
