Free Framer Portfolio Templates for Designers and Social Media Managers

Two free Framer portfolio templates with very different personalities, and what to put in a portfolio that actually gets you hired.

A portfolio doesn’t need to show everything you’ve done. It needs to show the right work, explain your thinking and make it easy to contact you. These two free Framer templates give you a strong structure for that, whether you design, shoot or run social accounts.

Sidelong: for designers and creatives who want motion

Sidelong turns the scroll on its side. Visitors scroll down and your work moves sideways across nine full-screen panels: hero, story, selected work, services, clients, availability and contact.

It includes a work index and CMS case study pages, a fixed side rail with your wordmark and local time, and a vertical layout on phones so nothing breaks on small screens. It suits designers, photographers, art directors and studios.

Social Media Manager: for content pros with personality

Social Media Manager is built for content strategists and community managers. A scrapbook-style hero leads into tabbed case studies with real metrics like follower growth and engagement rate, a three-tier pricing section and a process breakdown.

If your work is measured in results, this template puts the numbers front and center.

What to include in your portfolio

  • Three to six of your strongest projects, not all of them

  • A short case study for each: the problem, what you did and the result

  • Numbers wherever you have them, like traffic, conversions or engagement

  • A clear line about who you work with and what you offer

  • An obvious way to contact you or book a call

How to get started

Preview each template, pick the one that feels most like you, and enter your email on its page to get the remix link. Swap in your projects, update the colors, and publish. Both templates are fully responsive and editable without code.
