Hello there,

I apologize for the late reply, we have been getting a lot of messages daily and are trying our best to keep up with every request. I hope you can understand.

The main issue with the speed of your website seems to be the image size. (see image below)

Another issue is that you have a lot of images uploded via an insecure connection or http:// where as your website uses https:// This issue can commonly occurs when you activate an SSL certificate on a website after the files have already been uploaded.

Usually it comes down to removing the old images (that were uploaded during http) and uploading new ones (so they get uploaded with https). 
If you use google chrome developer tools console you can find the list of images that are causing this issue. (see image below) 

You can also try using some SSL plugins like this one:

Also, here are some general tips for speeding up your website:

a. Consider optimizing your images with some tool like this one:
www.jpegmini.com

b.  Also you can install some plugin for cache, like WP Fastest Cache or some other:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-fastest-cache/
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-super-cache/
https://wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache/
c. Enable gzip compression on your server. You can read more about it here:
http://www.feedthebot.com/pagespeed/enable-compression.html

But it comes down to pasting this code to .htaccess file located in your folder:

<ifModule mod_gzip.c>mod_gzip_on Yes
mod_gzip_dechunk Yes
mod_gzip_item_include file .(html?|txt|css|js|php|pl)$
mod_gzip_item_include handler ^cgi-script$
mod_gzip_item_include mime ^text/.*
mod_gzip_item_include mime ^application/x-javascript.*
mod_gzip_item_exclude mime ^image/.*
mod_gzip_item_exclude rspheader ^Content-Encoding:.*gzip.*
</ifModule>

d. Also check - Leverage browser caching:

e. Use at least PHP 5.6.x or greater in order to process PHP code faster.

Hope this helps if there is anything else that we can help you with please don't hesitate to ask.

Kind regards,

Sean
