Here's everything that's been done, what's coming next, and the two things we need from you.
Two versions of the same site — open either to look around, then tell me which you prefer.
The Full Overhaul
Everything has been rebuilt, refined, or upgraded. Every page has your photos now — fading galleries, proper review sliders with stars, and a structure that shows the full picture of your work including subcontracting across sports and corporate. Here's the breakdown:
Every page now has fading photo slideshows. The sports page has a full-width cinematic gallery with all 40+ team photos, each with SEO-friendly team captions.
Reviews now fade in one at a time with big prominent gold stars. Each review section sits next to a photo slideshow of you — side-by-side, much more impactful.
All 40 sports team photos are now captioned with proper team labels — NRL, NRLW, Rugby Union, Cricket, Basketball, Netball. Helps you appear in local sports massage searches.
The heavy processing that was making everything look harsh and giving the skin an orange cast has been stripped right back. Your photos now look natural and true to life — softened and clean, not over-sharpened.
The Elegant Wordmark — leaf mark above "Massage Haus" — is now consistent across every single page, in both nav and footer.
The Services page now has a dedicated Subcontracting section covering both elite sports teams AND corporate events, wellness days, and conferences.
Holistic and Sports sit clearly on the Services page. Dense sections now have "Read more" toggles so it doesn't feel overwhelming to read.
Your browser tab now shows the Massage Haus leaf mark. A small detail but it shows up everywhere — bookmarks, tabs, search results.
Coming Next
The current photos of you are working well, but when you're next in Brisbane, let's do a proper shoot. Here's what's planned:
Green screen setup + a decent camera. We'll photograph you in a few different looks — the kind of clean, confident portraits that go into the small portrait sliders on each page (next to the reviews). With a green screen, we can swap in any background — charcoal for the dark site, cream/parch for the light version.
These replace the current photos with fresh ones you love and that are 100% yours.
Here's what I'm thinking for the homepage hero: a short video of you laughing and smiling — starting in black and white, then colour gently pulls in as it plays. Cinematic, not corporate. Behind it, quietly in the background, your voice talking about what you love about being a massage therapist.
Not a scripted interview. Just you, natural, a few sentences from the heart. We'd pair it with your new photos fading in from the same shoot, so the header feels alive. I can put together the effect — I want to practice it for a project I'm working on anyway, so it's good timing.
This is the plan, not yet built — wanted your input before we shoot anything.
Your Turn
We've kept it simple. Here's what we need from you to lock everything in and get the site properly live:
The site comes in two versions: Website A (dark, moody, charcoal) and Website B (light, warm, cream and sage). Same content, same photos, same features — it's purely a visual preference. You can even have both live and direct different clients to different ones. Have a look at the swatches below and let me know what feels most like you.
Read through the pages. If anything reads wrong, needs updating, doesn't sound like you, or the prices have changed — flag it and we'll fix it. This is your site and it needs to feel exactly right before it goes properly live.
Charcoal backgrounds, cream text, rust and sage. Premium, editorial, strong. Great for sports and corporate positioning.
Currently LiveCream and parchment backgrounds, charcoal text, warm sage and terracotta. Calm, approachable, welcoming. Great for holistic.
