modern Portfolio Website Build

I need a simple, elegant portfolio site whose sole purpose is to showcase my work in a visually appealing way. The build should feel lightweight, load quickly, and keep the focus on the projects themselves without unnecessary distractions.

Pages I want live at launch:
• Home Page
• About Me
• Contact Page

The design should be clean and responsive, with intuitive navigation between these sections. I’m open to modern stacks—WordPress with a well-supported theme, a static site generator like Gatsby, or a custom HTML/CSS/JS approach—as long as the final product is easy for me to update with future pieces.

Key expectations:
• A polished layout that lets my work take center stage
• Mobile-first responsiveness across major browsers
• Basic on-page SEO best practices (semantic tags, meta titles, alt text)
• Clear hand-off: source files plus brief instructions on adding new projects

Let me know your proposed tech stack and timeline, and feel free to link examples of similar portfolio sites you’ve delivered.
