Golden Hour Portraits

Golden Hour Portraits is a mock.shop sample store for building against a service catalog before a real Shopify store is ready. It includes consultation sessions, business services, portrait packages, and planning documents. The catalog has 8 products across 2 collections. Every product has one default variant, no product requires shipping, and 3 products have a compare-at price.

mock.shop is an auth-free Shopify Storefront GraphQL API backed by sample reference stores. Find out more about mock.shop sample stores.

When to use this store

Choose Golden Hour Portraits when a storefront sells services or packages that do not need shipping or product-option selection.

Use Golden Hour Portraits for:

• Photography, consulting, and service-package storefronts
• Product pages and carts that skip shipping
• Collection browsing and compare-at price display for a compact service catalog

Choose another mock.shop store if you need physical shipping, size or color selectors, subscriptions, digital downloads, or a large catalog. Browse https://mock.shop/llms.txt to find a store that matches your catalog.

Example Golden Hour Portraits query

Here’s an example GraphQL POST request that retrieves product pricing and shipping requirements from https://bookings.mock.shop/api:

curl https://bookings.mock.shop/api \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"query":"{ products(first: 3) { nodes { title productType variants(first: 1) { nodes { price { amount currencyCode } compareAtPrice { amount currencyCode } availableForSale requiresShipping } } } } }"}'

This query returns product titles, product types, availability, current prices, compare-at prices, and whether each variant requires shipping. Adapt the query for your storefront needs.

The endpoint doesn't require authentication or an access token. Read https://bookings.mock.shop/llms.txt for catalog details and store-specific instructions.

What this catalog lets you test

Golden Hour Portraits supports testing a compact catalog of services and packages that do not require shipping. Because every product has one default variant and requiresShipping is false, the store supports product pages without option selectors, carts that skip shipping, collection pages, and compare-at price display.

Preview the catalog in a storefront by opening https://bookings.hydrogen.mock.shop in a browser.

Build with an AI coding tool

To build a service storefront with Golden Hour Portraits using Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Lovable, or another AI assistant, copy the prompt below. It gives the assistant the store domain and directs it to the catalog instructions before it starts writing code.

Build me a Hydrogen storefront using bookings.mock.shop as the store domain. Setup instructions: bookings.mock.shop/llms.txt

Shopify also provides a mock.shop starter project: a Hydrogen storefront with product pages, collection browsing, and a working cart already connected to mock.shop. You or your AI coding tool can customize this code instead of building those pieces from scratch.

Follow the repository’s setup instructions, then set PUBLIC_STORE_DOMAIN=bookings.mock.shop in .env and restart the dev server to use Golden Hour Portraits’ catalog. Leave PUBLIC_STOREFRONT_API_TOKEN empty; mock.shop doesn’t require a token.

Move to a real Shopify store

mock.shop uses fictional, read-only catalog data. Cart operations work, and checkout is mocked: no payment is taken and no real order is placed. The Customer Account API isn’t supported.

When you’re ready to launch, point your storefront at a Shopify store and add that store’s public Storefront API token. If you don’t have a Shopify store yet, start a Shopify free trial to create one.

Read the mock.shop developer documentation for setup and migration details.
