Portfolio Site Redesigned | Feast Your Eyes On The Yummy Freshness

When I first started The Studio B Photography in law school I knew I needed an image driven website that would be able to show clients what I could do for them.  At the time my portfolio was fairly limited and my old site pretty much mirrored that fact.  There wasn’t much to set me apart from the sea of other photographers out there, and over time I outgrew my old site.

A few months ago I made the decision to re-do the site and chose to stick with BluDomain, the company who did my first site.  After several nerdy pages of notes on a legal pad, I picked the site that was right for me and started working on it.

Instead of just uploading the same pictures that were already in my portfolio I forced my self to start from scratch and pick the pictures that were really reflective of what my style of photography has evolved into.

I’m totally not that person who touts themselves as an artist and spends all day spouting off about my craft, (no offense to those who do, but that’s just not me) but the kinds of pictures I take and the things that appeal to me have changed since I first started doing this.

Going into the site design, I knew I needed more space to spread everything out.  The images had to  be much bigger.  I also wanted clients to be able to choose if they wanted to view weddings or portraits as well as have a place to read what former clients had to say about their pictures.

I’ll let these screen shots show you the highlights of the new site, but please head over there to see it for yourself!!

P.S. I cropped these because my screen is H U G E and a straight screenshot would look weird on the blog.  If they seem a bit wonky, that’s why.  I assure you everything is normal over on the actual site

The homepage shows you all of your options for fun!

If you click on weddings it will automatically take you to the engagement gallery, but notice that to the right are five more galleries breaking down the wedding day.

Preparation for the wedding day is one of my FAVORITE parts and it was important for me to have those pictures in a gallery of their own.

Pictures of the bride and groom alone are my other favorite, so of course that gets its own gallery!

I loved the idea of having a place on the site to feature some of my favorite sessions.

If you hover over each square you’ll see the names of some the fun places that I’ve been with my camera!

I don’t buy ANYTHING without doing research on it (hungry impulse buys at the grocery store aside.)

I know that when it comes to picking someone to trust with shooting your wedding, it is wonderful to hear from people who have real life experience with the photographer you’re considering.  That’s why I have the testimonials section!

Picking the right album for you and your budget can sometimes be a daunting task.  I wanted to make the process less mystifying and the products section was born.

My plan isn’t to confuse you into buying stuff you don’t want or need- it’s to provide you with an album that will be treasured by you and your family forever.

Finally, I added the meet b section so you could get to know us a little bit better as well as see what kinds of awesome pictures can be captured during a first look session!
