About the project
Gelatin Labs is a family-owned photo development lab based in New Jersey, USA, offering high-quality, personalized photographic services to creatives across the country. Founded and run by the father-son duo Doug and Ben Krueger, the brand blends timeless artistry with modern photographic solutions, staying true to its roots while constantly evolving to meet the needs of a growing creative community.
We collaborated with Confetti Design Studio on this project—while they handled the visual design, our team was responsible for bringing that vision to life through WordPress development. The goal was to craft a seamless, expressive, and high-performing website that reflects the deep storytelling and emotional legacy behind Gelatin Labs.
Our approach
The Gelatin Labs site was already live and actively used by a loyal customer base, which made the development process more sensitive. With no inbuilt staging environment available and an urgent timeline, we built a custom staging setup to make and test changes without disrupting the live experience.
The product structure on their website involved some unique logic and custom workflows, especially around ordering and photography service details. We had to reverse-engineer parts of the user flow, understand the logic behind it, and implement it efficiently—fast. Despite the complexity, the collaboration was smooth and the development process, though intense, was genuinely enjoyable.
In the end, we delivered a fast, beautiful, and fully functional WordPress website that supports Gelatin Labs’ creative mission—and continues to serve their ever-growing community of photographers with ease.
