Firstly I need to look at other similar sites to see what colour schemes, layouts, language and text they use, to get some general ideas.
Here are some Examples of photography websites that would fit my type/ purpose that i am looking at.
www.petalscape.com/galleries.php
http://www.andysmall.co.uk/shop/6/index.htm
This flower photography website as an about page.
In my website i need to explain what my website is going to be about.
This website 'Specialises in garden and flower photography' and it talks about how she became interested in photography and what she is involved in relating to photography.
From looking at these websites you can see that most of them have a gallery page with all there photos on. They also have links to navigate from each page for example by the name of different flower types or colours of flowers.
on each of these websites the colour background is a plain/simple colour e.g white/blue. to make the photos stand out
From Looking at these websites I need to think about, these ideas for my website:
- Logo - title for site
- Intro/about page - explain what my website is about
- Fonts
- Ideas of visual things - colours, layouts
- images - think about size, colour and composition
- Possibly use multimedia such as videos. e.g from youtube
- Website mock ups
- layout
My site needs to be distinctive from other sites, but needs to fit in with the type/purpose of the website.
