Børne-FotoModernizing the Online Shop and Business Systems

Børne-Foto needed to modernize its online shop and internal systems without disrupting daily operations. I've updated the solution step by step, allowing old and new systems to work alongside each other. The new online shop is faster and easier to use, and online orders have increased by 35%.

Børne-Foto's digital platform consisted of several older systems for booking, photo uploads, customer management, order processing and printing. Some relied on outdated technology, but were also essential to daily operations. Replacing everything at once simply wasn't an option.

The existing ordering system was primarily designed for customers to order additional copies of their photos in different layouts. Børne-Foto wanted to introduce more product types and new sales opportunities, which the old system couldn't support.

The ordering process was also slow and not particularly intuitive. Børne-Foto needed a faster, more user-friendly online shop that made it easier for customers to find and order their photos and products.

Since 2022, I've been modernizing the platform module by module, using technologies including ASP.NET Core, Blazor, Umbraco and SQL Server. New solutions for booking, administration and e-commerce have gradually replaced the old ones. Throughout the process, new and existing systems have worked together using the shared database, allowing daily operations to continue.

I've developed a new online shop supporting both photo orders and physical products, including discount codes, promotional pricing and additional product types. The solution also includes integrations with payment providers, email services and Shopify.

The online shop is also faster and easier to navigate, with a focus on making the ordering process as simple as possible for customers.
