Donald Weber is a photographer with the VII Network, mainly studying post-Soviet authority in Ukraine and Russia. With this site Don is offering a series of photographs in Kickstarter-like support of his forthcoming documentary photography book. I see it as an experiment in the disruption of the traditional ways and means of Art capitol using internet technologies. The font is FF Meta.

Photographer Seth Anderson is based in Chicago, a city that is often his subject. Prolific on Flickr, his images are frequently licensed for reproduction in blogs, books, documentaries and other media. We created a site that makes it easy to order physical prints.

Anderson’s photos are perhaps best approached through categories, making image discovery the site’s central mecanism. The approaches we employed became the basis for my techincal tutorial posts on creating a WordPress Tag Search using jQuery and a Categories Page using Nested Loops.

I’m happy to launch a new website for documentary photographer Samuel A. James, an American working in Nigeria. The site runs the WordPress theme/plugin package I’ve dubbed “Carolyn”, after its initial commissioner, Carolyn Drake. The idea behind this package is to create a system that can be used to quickly deploy portfolio sites of a certain kind. To adapt the package to James’ needs I added features like an automatically-advancing slideshow and, most importantly, the ability to give each site a unique layout / style sheet. Check it out!
