Over the last few months I have been working on a slight revamp to my website. It has been three years since I have really gone in and changed up the website and I had a lot of new images that haven’t been added to the mix so I decided to overhaul all of the image galleries and take a hard look at everything on the website. To help me decide what should stay and what should go, as well as help me edit my own work, I reached out to my good friend Peter Dennen of Pedro + Jackie. Peter gave me a fresh set of eyes to dig up both old and new images that needed to be seen.
Of course, editing your own work and figuring out how to display it is always tricky. This time around, I went with a popular method of displaying a large number of images in a masonry grid, not dissimilar to Instagram. This seems to be the hip new layout that art buyers and photo editors love because it helps them find what they are looking for that much faster. Of course, you can still click on an image and click through images individually as well.

The website is still a work in progress. I will keep updating it over the next few months when I am allowed to show new assignment images currently under embargo. Check it out at www.michaelclarkphoto.com. Drop me a note or leave a comment here and let me know what you think.
WowZA.
Love the website…looks really great !
Did you do the design work yourself?
I looking at designing my own site and moving away from zenfolio.
I see you used the ProPhoto framework, are you happy with who it worked for you?
Also i love your menu – best looking wordpress menu I’ve seen! Is the menu part of the ProPhoto suite/tools or is it a special plugin…
Okay sorry for so many questions, main point being – Your site looks great.
I’ve been a follower of your work for years. Killer photos and appreciate you abiity to communicate your passion and experience to those whom you inspire.

Eagle – I worked with a graphic designer and then tweaked the website a bit to my taste. I used an AphotoFolio.com template for the main website and a ProPhoto template for the WordPress blog. Both have worked very well for me. The menu on the main website is not work press but the aphotofolio template. The menu on the blog is wordpress. Thanks for the note!
