After working on this all day Leah and I have finally finished!

I would like you all to be the first to see what we are both very proud of.

It should be going live within the next 36hrs on www.baillyphoto.com

Since im impatient, the temporary site can be seen here. I hope you all like it as much as we both do!

Hooray!

I could do without the music. Other than that, it's not bad. The gallery thumbnails seem to load a little slowly but the photo transitions are interesting.

Thanks Carl. I know the music isnt for everyone, but for what im doing I think it works. Im happy with how everything came out.

awesome dude, i think it looks great. plus, i really like the music...adds some warmth and personality.

Thanks you guys. I feel so accomplished now. Leah and I woke up early and only left the computers once today to do some food shopping. Its been alot of work, but I feel its paid off!

Looks awesome, guys. When do you want to do mine?

I think it works! And I definitely think it'll be appreciated by people looking for your services. Definitely a nice wedding photographer's site! Much classier and more attractive than so many I've seen, while being contemporary and clean. sorry if my comments earlier came across as harsh

Thanks Carl! Thats pretty much exactly what I was going for. I wanted one that reflected myself, was easy to navigate, and let the photos speak for themselves. I really couldnt be any happier with it.

Fantastic work, you two!

Thanks Ted!

Looks good!!!! Very professional!

i also would like to point out one of the main reasons it's so good is every photo isn't b&w and super blown out/softened to hell like every other wedding photogs website

It's got the photo with the lens flare in it!

Sites with music make me want to kill people.

But, the design is really nice




*Although, I hate all-flash sites.




Not trying to be negative, I swear, it DOES look good.

Seriously, how hard (not work wise) but complicated was that to make?

I REALLY like the design/layout/simplicity of it. I'd love to do something like that with my stuff someday.

Yes, I like the design.

The other stuff, well, not so much.

It was super easy dude. What took the most amount of time was the organization of the photos in each slideshow and the color matching. That and about an hour writing the "about me" section.

Some will like it, others wont. I think it presents my photos well which is the most important part.

In a few weeks I'll proally put up a mirror HTML site for those that either

a) hate flash sites

or

b) live in 1997.

hahaha, One of the reasons it took so long is that Matt insisted on sharpening every picture before we put it up

The girl mid twirl?

Not everyone is going to love every image up on the site. There are some shots I woulnt have put up if it were not for clients raving about them specifically.

Thanks, Colbie Caillat.

I love it!

Wow guys, great work. It's very clean and should work very well for wedding type stuff. What did you use to design it? Flash itself or something else?

and the music is a tricky issue. I'd bet most of the people you're selling too would like it. Plus you have the ability to turn it off and change songs, so it's not unbearable.

You really need a better picture of the 2 of you though... It should be a shot of the 2 of you as a couple, then maybe if you need/want an action shot of one of you shooting, do it AT a wedding so you're dressed up a bit more. I realize you'll shoot different weddings in different attire, but shorts/sneakers and a polo don't come over too professional in the shot of Matt, and the shot of Leah looks like she could be a bride at an event you shot

nice font BTW.

Thanks Ben,

we used a flash template to do the site, much easier, cleaner, and faster than we could have done ourselves. As far as the pictures go, I agree 100% I didnt want to put up that section or photos until we had better ones but Leah insisted. I was thinking of either one of me working at a wedding or have someone do more of a semi pro looking shot of me or the two of us together.

and the font is plain Luna font, unlike Luna JPGson font. took awhile to find one we liked.

*hint hint*

Beeeeennn? We need pictures :-)

You say that like I don't know what it is....
Leah did ask me what it was....

I know I was just trying to point out any difference I could.

I think out having fun would be bestest, after all, we are huge retards at heart.

its up!!

nice, sent the link to my co-worker (so he can show it to his fiance )

Nice, thanks Ben. The site is still not 100% propagated yet, but so far everyone has been able to see the new site.

Didnt notice the music..as my computer is muted. But I love the design and setup. I like how the Gallery is set up. I think the About us section could use some more info about you two. But again. Nice


I also liek the Luna Bar Logo.. haha After Ben started playing with it for his business cards.. I decided to nab it aswell haha emulation from Insperation

^ thanks, Ill be adding to that section when we have better shots of us to put up.

bump...

Can anyone tell me what logo they see on the left? Im getting the old logo. Still have no idea why that is, might be the whole propagation thing. Others have been getting the new. Otherwise the new sites up.

I for one...am glad you have a new site

I see a blue B and half a grey P

It stands for Bisque, Please...Doesn't it?
