For this website, I would like to create an online portfolio of some sorts to market my new obsession with Photography/Media projects. The idea is that I’ll be able to showcase my work, and also discuss various concepts I’ve learned and various tips to help others. This semester I’m taking a photojournalism class and I’ve loved the process of going out and exploring while capturing those moments, but I haven’t really enjoyed the journalistic aspect of that class. This website will serve as a site strictly for photography. Art.
Besides my home page, I will have a page strictly showcasing my work and projects (one), an about me page that will go into further detail about what I want to accomplish and be all about me (two), a contact me page will give viewers access to me for possible bookings/shout-outs if I ever get that big (three) and I would also like to include a page that will almost serve as a blog within the website (four). That page will have tips from me, and discuss ideas that have been discussed to me. There may also be news that I’ll post there that is relatable to the photography world.
Since the site is going to have pictures, I really want to keep the color scheme very neutral. Also, I’m very fond of blacks, whites and greys, so that gives me even more of an incentive to use that scheme. I stumbled upon Tom Hull’s website, and I really like the layout and patterns. However, on my photo’s page, I want to keep the text very minimal. I would like viewers to be able to click on my pictures and be taken to a new page that has more information, or at least have the text pop up if the mouse is on top of the image. I’m not sure… that’s still up in the air. I do want the home page to have one image and my new logo.
I just want the website to speak for itself.
