WordPress vs Adobe Portfolio for Photographers
However, I’ll keep some remnants of this old post:
Remnants of the old post:
Hi, I’m Ray, a photographer based in Brighton, East Sussex. BurnImage is my photography website for Ray Burn Photography. For ages now I’ve had “make a photography website and blog” on my list of things to do. I’ve finally done it! It was actually quite complicated as I used WordPress for this blog and Adobe Portfolio for the image portfolio. Which, let’s face it, is the most important part of a photography site.
In order to do this I’ve put the Adobe Portfolio gallery on the root domain name and this blog on a subdomain, with menu links to seamlessly switch between the two. The idea being to try and create a single website experience as best I can, whilst technically its actually two websites.
Update: February 2020
I’ve changed direction and now the whole website is on the root domain, www.burnimage.co.uk, using only WordPress. I am no longer using a subdomain or Adobe Portfolio. It’s been quite a huge task to redesign everything, but should be simple to work with now it’s setup!
Very informative
Thanks David….
