This document summarizes the design process for a photographer's website. It discusses design elements like font, images, buttons, and color palette. It also describes changes made to the site structure, including removing a gallery division and adding social media links, to make the site more effective at advertising the photographer's work.

2. Almost all high end photographers and
Photography agencies have a website.
These are very simple, sleek and allow
the images to speak for themselves.
They tend to be in either black or
white.

3. First attempt at website design

4. This font is too hard to read and red is too aggressive for our purpose
Splash image too stretched

5. Text is simpler and turns to bold
When the relevant page is open.
Image is not stretched but still
Visually arresting.

6. Buttons become bolder when the page is selected

7. Colour palette is very simple with white on black.

9. I had initially planned on dividing up
The gallery page into editorial and
Advertising pictures which customers
Could buy but then realised that the
Site should serve more of an
Advertising function than a commercial
one

10. So I changed the site to allow
For browsing of whichever
Genre the viewer was
Interested in.

11. When a photograph
Is rolled over it darkens and
When clicked it opens
In this lightbox

12. I had not initially wanted to
Include any social networking
Information on my site but it
Became clear that almost all
Agencies and photographers
do have Facebook and Twitter
Accounts so I included them
but tried to keep them discreet.

13. The
End
