Accessibility Statement for Luminous Lens Studio

Luminous Lens Studio is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for everyone. We believe everyone should have equal access to information and services, regardless of disability. We are continuously working to improve the accessibility of our website to ensure we provide equal access for all users.

Our Commitment to Accessibility

Luminous Lens Studio is dedicated to meeting the needs of individuals with disabilities. We strive to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, a set of guidelines developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) to improve web accessibility. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with a wide array of disabilities.

Our commitment to accessibility includes:

  • Providing alternative text for all images and other non-text content. This allows screen readers to describe the images to visually impaired users.
  • Ensuring sufficient color contrast between text and background. This is important for users with low vision or color blindness.
  • Using a clear and consistent website structure with proper heading tags. This helps users navigate the site using screen readers or keyboard navigation.
  • Making sure all website functionality is operable through a keyboard. This allows users who cannot use a mouse to navigate the site.
  • Avoiding the use of flashing or strobing content, which can trigger seizures in some individuals.
  • Providing transcripts for audio and captions for video content. This makes the content accessible to users who are deaf or hard of hearing.
  • Designing forms that are accessible to screen readers, with clear labels and instructions.
  • Using ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes to enhance accessibility for users of assistive technologies.
  • Regularly testing our website using accessibility evaluation tools and involving users with disabilities in the testing process.

Accessibility Features of This Website

The Luminous Lens Studio website incorporates several features to enhance accessibility:

  • Semantic HTML: We use semantic HTML5 elements to structure our content, making it easier for assistive technologies to understand the purpose and meaning of different parts of the page.
  • Alternative Text: Every image includes descriptive alternative text. For example, instead of "image.jpg," an image showing a portrait of a bride will have alt text like "A bride in a white gown smiling during her wedding photoshoot in Seattle."
  • Keyboard Navigation: You can navigate our entire site using your keyboard. Use the "Tab" key to move between links and form fields, and the "Enter" key to activate links or submit forms.
  • Color Contrast: We have carefully selected color combinations to ensure sufficient contrast between text and background.
  • Resizable Text: You can increase or decrease the text size using your browser's zoom functionality. Press "Ctrl +" (or "Cmd +") to zoom in, and "Ctrl -" (or "Cmd -") to zoom out.
  • Skip Navigation Link: A "Skip to main content" link is provided at the top of each page, allowing keyboard users to bypass the navigation menu and jump directly to the main content.
  • Clear Headings: We use headings (H1, H2, H3, etc.) to organize our content logically. This makes it easier for users to understand the structure of the page and find the information they need.
  • Form Accessibility: All form fields are properly labeled with clear instructions, and error messages are displayed in a clear and accessible format.
  • Dark Mode Toggle: Users can switch to a dark theme for improved readability in low-light conditions.

Specific Accessibility Considerations

Images

All images on our website are accompanied by descriptive alt text. The alt text concisely conveys the content and function of the image. Decorative images that do not convey meaning have empty alt attributes (alt=""). This ensures that screen readers ignore them, reducing clutter and improving the user experience.

Forms

Our forms are designed with accessibility in mind. Each form field has a clear label that is associated with the field using the <label> element. This allows screen reader users to easily understand the purpose of each field. Required fields are clearly marked, and error messages are displayed in a visually accessible and understandable format.

Tables

We use tables sparingly and only when necessary to present data. Tables are structured with proper header rows (<th>) and data cells (<td>). The <th> elements include the "scope" attribute to associate them with the corresponding row or column. Each table has a <caption> element that provides a summary of the table's content.

Photography Package Prices

The table above outlines our portrait photography package prices. Each package includes different session lengths and deliverables.

Video and Audio

We strive to provide captions and transcripts for all video and audio content. This allows users who are deaf or hard of hearing to access the content. Where live captions are not available, we provide accurate post-production captions. Transcripts are available for download in a variety of formats, including text and HTML.
