MK Home Staging
Brand website for a Lake Geneva home staging company — with a custom masonry gallery that auto-packs mixed portrait and landscape photos.
Built from scratch
MK Home Staging LLC serves sellers and realtors in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. The site introduces the brand, explains services, and showcases staged homes through photo and video galleries.
The photo gallery uses react-photo-album in masonry mode, so mixed portrait and landscape staging shots pack tightly with even gutters — no manual cropping to fit uniform tiles.
What's included
Masonry photo gallery
react-photo-album lays out portrait and landscape photos in a responsive masonry grid (1–4 columns by viewport). Clicking a photo opens a yet-another-react-lightbox viewer with zoom, slideshow, and captions.
Photo and video galleries
Separate photo and video gallery sections organize work by property — Fontana House, Lake Geneva Stage, and more — so visitors can explore finished staging projects.
Elegant design
The home page pairs autoplay staging video with circular statistics, key-room icons, and ornamental scroll dividers — an editorial layout that presents data and services without template clutter.
Admin photo uploads
An admin area uses Uppy for drag-and-drop uploads. Photos land in AWS S3; metadata and album groupings live in MongoDB via Mongoose.
How it runs
Next.js 14 and React 18 on the front end. MongoDB stores albums, photos, and contact entries. AWS S3 serves images; AWS SES sends contact form mail. Tailwind CSS and DaisyUI handle styling.
