Lumen Photography is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for everyone. We are continually improving the user experience for all visitors and applying the relevant accessibility standards to ensure we provide equal access to information.

Our Commitment to Accessibility
We firmly believe that everyone should have barrier-free access to our website, regardless of their abilities or the technology they use. We are dedicated to making our website as accessible as possible, adhering to universally recognized accessibility standards and guidelines.
Our efforts align with the following principles:
- Perceivable: Information and user interface components must be presentable to users in ways they can perceive.
- Operable: User interface components and navigation must be operable.
- Understandable: Information and the operation of the user interface must be understandable.
- Robust: Content must be robust enough that it can be interpreted reliably by a wide variety of user agents, including assistive technologies.
Conformance Status
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. Lumen Photography is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard.
Our conformance efforts include:
- Providing alternative text for images to ensure screen reader compatibility.
- Ensuring sufficient color contrast for readability.
- Using semantic HTML to structure content logically.
- Making our website navigable using keyboard-only input.
- Providing captions and transcripts for video and audio content where applicable.
- Regularly auditing and testing our website for accessibility issues using automated tools and manual testing.
We are actively working to address any remaining accessibility gaps and improve the overall accessibility of our website.
