Hello friends,
Here is a freelance project I just finished for a Photojournalist here in Atlanta.
The only thing I was not so crazy about was the pop up windows to show her samples. But, it seemed like the only option under the timeline to both showcase vertical and horizontal images.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Cheers,

daaamn, she is one hot photographer.
The text in the middle when u click on portfolio and freelance and contact seems weird that close to the edge. Maybe a border there like in the "about" text.

Kuz,
Yeah, I wanted it to be an element. Like, kinda touch the border to show the white space. Howerver, I am open to see what others think.
Thanks.

agree with kuz, text seems too close to the border on portfolio, freelance etc.

site is cool. the photographs however, i really don't like it when they are not adjusted in contrast after scanning it. i am sorry to be painfully honest, but a few of them is just horrible.

I agree 100000%.. Some of the images should not have been used at all. I did what I could in PS to make them better..
I agree...

maybe you changed the text that everyone is talking about, but the text i do see in the portfolio pictures with the picture looks fine to me.
the only thing i have a problem with is the main look of it, how you have like pictures on top of each other and the top picture is your viewing screen. it seems the way you chose to arrange the pictures in the pile is too symmetrical along the vertical axis. seems odd to me, like you should break it out and make it not so ordinary and bland.
just thoughts_

someone posted an fla of some code the other day (I cant fin it I'm afraid) that flicked through a stack of images like that via php.. it would have been a real nice way of making the site easily updateable..
- warheros0
yeah, another thing:
why not have the picture you choose show up in the entire square that is the top picture? maybe you could click that when done viewing the pic you chose, and that takes you back to the pic menu. i dont know. your idea is good too, a bit flashy though.

and you might want to know that "apon" is not a word and it never will be.
this is on the "freelance" page.

Woah..
Good catch... Fixed!
I could not display the images in that space becuase the client wanted both vertical images as well as horz. I fought for it and lost....
I hate pop up windows... Oh well..

good job

True..
You kinda have to let your ego go when dealing with stuff like this... It's not my site; but it is going in my book..

mate - the image quality ofhte photos is terrible...you really wanted them looking that washed out and lossy?
And why is the photo of her in 'about' so knocked back? Looks kinda weird considering the reast of the portfolio - she not like her face or something?
Why are you using totally different type in 'about' and 'freelance/contact' sections?
The site has potential but the quality of those photos and little things like inconsistent use of type is really letting it down
- warheros0
yup

nice site!
Get rid of the TitleBar in the pop-up windows. The last foto with the girl misses the 'close window' link.

nice site and some great pics, but the text in the about section cuts off in the middle of a sentance.

Hello friends,
Thanks for all the great advice. Please, keep it coming. Some really good comments.
I did the best I could with her Photos BTW. You should have seen the images I refused to use.
Thanks all..
