Dafy Hagai was my main inspiration for my final major project so I thought it was important to see what her online presence is like. Similar to the other websites I have looked at, Dafy’s website is extremely basic and simple, and very easy to navigate. The menu that she has is on the left hand side, rather than being along the top which I think is quite effective. The home page of the website has a scrolling gallery that shows her most recent project, and this is something that I will take inspiration from when creating my online website.

Prue Stent is a successful photographer who focuses on the female form and exploring it in an aesthetically pleasing way. Her online portfolio is extremely simple and easy to navigate, and each project has been separated in a simple menu at the top of the page. The website is missing an ‘about’ page, which I think is a negative aspect as I feel this is an important part of an online portfolio. Similar to Petra Collins’ website, this online portfolio has inspired my further to keep my website very simple and easy to navigate, as I feel that the most important thing is to keep the focus on the work. However I will have an ‘about’ section as I feel that it’s important, especially for a new up and coming graduate photographer.

Petra Collins is one of my favourite photographers, and I found her online portfolio inspiring. I like the simplicity of it, and how it shows her work well without any gimmicks. The scroll on the first page makes it extremely easy to navigate though her most recent project. For my online website, I also want to show my work in a similar format, as I found this very easy and straight forward to navigate.

Keeping the colour scheme simple works well, as it allows the focus to be on the work, rather than the website itself.
