Collection

Free Gallery & Photography Website Templates

When the photos are the product, the template should frame them and step back. The designs in this collection are built around images: a full-screen filtered gallery with a lightbox, full-width photo bands with short captions, panel-by-panel image storytelling and tiled grids that hover to reveal a title.

They suit photographers, fashion lookbooks, travel diaries and visual artists. Most use small lightbox scripts rather than heavy galleries, so pages stay light. Preview them live with the sample images, then download the blueprint to plan image sizes, ratios and captions before you export your own shots.

FAQ

Questions about gallery & photography templates

Which template has a lightbox gallery?

Multiverse opens each thumbnail in a lightbox with a caption, and Strata and Big Picture use the poptrox lightbox for their work grids.

What image sizes should I use?

Export large images around 1600 to 2000 pixels wide for full-width sections and smaller thumbnails for grids, compressed as WebP or quality JPEG. The blueprint lists where each image appears.

Are the sample photos included in my licence?

No. Demo images in the templates come from various sources and are placeholders. Replace them with your own photos or properly licensed stock.
