After many months of planning my new website finally went live earlier this week.
For my business its vital that I constantly evolve and not stay static for too long. So not only was a new site needed but also new, fresher images as well. During this last summer I’ve gone for a more documentary look with a slightly looser, more instinctive style. Not only that but I also process the images in a different way with some grain and harder black and whites, in a way mimicking fast 800/1600 iso film. I also add a rough black border (known in the industry as sloppy borders) to the images which, in my opinion, gives them a real documentary feel and is different to what everyone else is offering. I’ve had fantastic feedback from clients as well, some of whom want their albums presented this way.
Anyhow I’m delighted with the new site which is much easier to update than my old one and has more features and options as well. Another reason to change was that my old site didn’t do that well on google. My new one, even though its still a flash site, will do much better with the help of my SEO expert Marc Summers
