Blog design for photographer Courtney Hathaway

Monday, May 17th, 2010

I love looking at Courtney’s blog.  The background makes me happy.  Her logo is from Sugar Lime.  I tried to take the logo graphics and make a background but it just wasn’t happening.  So we turned to Tracy and she nailed it on the first try.  I admit, I like matchy-matchy.  There’s probably a line between matchy-matchy and well-branded but I don’t know where it lies!

We used the sleek SLR Theme here.  I this geek isn’t the only one that’s happy looking at Courtney’s blog:

Janet had her header done by the fabulous Tracy of Sugar Lime Designs.  Then she entered the world of blogging with a bit of trepidation but you’d never know it.  She would be unsure about something one minute and then totally have mastered it the next!  She’s got some gallery slideshows on her blog too so it’s kind of more of a blogsite which is pretty cool.  Check them out at the Janet Power Photography Blog!

I have Summer to thank for my having learned Wordpress.  We’d worked together on a custom blogger template last year.  Then she came to me this spring and said she thought she needed to move to Wordpress.  I agreed to try it, went and bought “Wordpress For Dummies” and that was that.  Thanks, Summer!  http://capturesbysummer.com/blog/ & maybe leave a comment telling her how great it is!

My very favorite thing about Heather is that she calls me “dear”.  She says, “Okay dear, talk to you later!”  and “Hello dear, how are you?” and it always makes me grin.  And Heather is a total figure-it-out-er.  She does her own graphics; she did her own slideshow and she made her own background!  We got the chance to meet this spring at a meetup for One Photo Source and I hope we’re able to get together again sometime soon!  Stop by the Sweet Life Photos Blog and check it out!

It’s so fun when you share a vision with a client from the very beginning.  Megan contacted me about doing her blog and I knew it was going to be a great opportunity for me to really do some fun stuff with the beloved Tofurious Premium theme.  We agreed right away on a layout and went from there.

She has an amazing eye for photojournalistic photography.  I’ll enjoy following the blog almost as much as I enjoyed working on the project.  Visit MeganJane Photography | The Blog!
