Zack Arias is a photographer who is active in the online side of photography. He runs a blog on his website and uses twitter as means of interacting with people who like his work. Also, he used tumblr as a means to get questions off of people to answer (which is over with) and made a book called 'Photography Q&A : Real Questions. Real Answers.'
His website is laid out simple and clean with all links clearly visible, however does not include his social media links. His about page features all details such as his past jobs and companies he has worked for, being different brand and publications. Also all speaking engagements and magazine articles he had done/been in.
Ibarionex Perello is active online. He has a podcast where he interviews other photographers. He uses some social networks, such as twitter, google plus, instagram also youtube where he talks about different photographs.
I like his website as everything is visibly clear with links to his websites and social media, his portfolio and other projects such as the podcast are featured and is not cluttered with it like some photography websites can be.
I don't really like photography websites that are black as much as i do the cleaner look, but I like kollers website though. It features all the need information as well as links to different things being easily accessible.
Colour Correction.
For this, all I did was open the file and make the adjusted the colour so that the white appeared brighter and have more of a clean look, but avoiding making it blown out.

Portfolio
Idea
For the layout of my portfolio/book to hand to the client, i am going to look at previous books i have made using indesign to give me an idea of how i should lay out these photographs and also look at examples from professional books to see how they are laying it out. I wanted to ensure that I captured the feel of the shop in the photographs I choose and also the layout of the portfolio being clean and well presented like the shop.
Layout examples.
Postcard
We had to create a postcard which was to be handed to the clients which we did the photography for in order for them to keep in contact with me if the every wished for me to do photography for them again. Here is the postcard I did, I choose this photograph as I like it and feel its an adequate image for it.
Evaluation
I ended up completing the book to a standard which I feel is of an adequate level, with the inclusion of my best photographs along with a photograph of both the owners and outside of the shop. I did however forget to add my contact details. But overall, i am satisfied with the book myself.
