I have a web-site at smugmug but I would like something more professional. I have a specific idea in mind but no expertise and time to build it myself. I am not a full time pro, so I am not ready to spend a lot of money for this. I am looking for somebody which has the expertise to develop my idea even on the basis of my smugmug web-site, as I have a power account with personal domain.
Hi Giulio- I had someone build mine and then found out that editing the site was so difficult I had to look somewhere else. I ended up using Apple's iWeb and doing my own, which took me a weekend to set up. Now I have complete control over everything and there's no annoying Flash animations to slow things down!
This guy has built 4 websites for me. Top quality, best customer service and not expensive - check him out:
His name is Praveen Ladwani: pladwani@mediaarcade.ne
Check out my website which he built.
I use LiveBooks which is geared specifically to photographers. Check out www.livebooks.com
They have a lot of templates available for a modest yearly fee. You can also have your site custom designed or a combination. I like the way the photos and portfolios are presented in a professional way.
Here are a couple of examples: www.clemensvanderwerf.com (standard photojournalist template) www.birdsasart.org www.avianscapes.com www.amoryross.com
