As this project has the task of creating our website, I am going to use the research I used of layout and design to create my own. I am using WIX to design my site on, and I aim to make it clean and simple. Below are videos I used to help me create it, along with workshop tutorials to help.

SCREENSHOTS

After a lot of changes and layout designs, I finally finished the initial layout, below are screenshots of the different pages.

EVALUATION

Overall building this website was reasonably easy to do; WIX is a great tool to use for beginners. However, as I am perfection, it was hard for me to complete my site, or be happy with the layout. I restarted my site layout over and over, then remembering in my research that the simplistic sites were different better in my eyes. This is what leads me to my final website. Another problem i encounter was choosing what images to put on the site, as I have a project from uni, but also personal projects that I have done—but also deciding how many to put up, what to show.

Researching another photographer website helped in this project, giving me ideas, but also do’s and don’t’s of sites. In the end, I am happy with what I have achieved, not just with my website, but also with my work progress over the past year, allowing me to present my work on a professional website.
